How to play Smurf Life for iOS: FAQ, Walkthrough and Beginner’s Guide

Welcome to the beginner’s guide to Smurf Life for the iPhone and iPod Touch, as well as for other iOS systems! In this game you play as a smurf of your name choice, and you will get missions from Papa Smurf as well as from Timber Smurf and Alchemist Smurf. Read on for the beginner’s guide to Smurf Life!

At the beginning of the game you will be asked to choose your job. Your job choices will be builder and alchemist; however, it doesn’t really matter which one of these you choose. The one that you choose will only affect that jobs that you have when you begin the game, but as you progress, you will be able to do both kinds of jobs.

The builder kind of jobs will appear in the upper left corner of the village. Go there and talk to Timber Smurf in order to get builder jobs. These jobs will generally involve using the work bench to craft various kinds of materials, and then either talk to Timber Smurf, or use them on a specific area – for example, using the Tiki Torch to burn away a wall of brambles in order to expand to the next area.

The alchemist jobs will appear in the upper right corner of the village. Go up there and talk to Alchemist Smurf, and he will fill you in on what quests you need to complete as an alchemist. Like the builder quests, these will also involve crafting various items in the order that they are given on the quest screens. You’ll either use them on various areas of the village, or you will talk to Alchemist Smurf to find out what to do next.

As you complete more quests, you’ll rescue more smurfs who have been trapped by the evil clouds that Gargamel and Azrael have sent over the village. The number in the upper left corner of the screen shows how many smurfs you have rescued. Each time that you complete a quest, you will rescue one or more new smurfs, so keep completing quests in order to rescue smurfs.
