How do I progress in Iron Will? - Exterior view of large industrial construction with metal tubes located on factory in daytime on cloudy weather

I just reset my kittens game, with 71 kittens (the bare minimum for paragon) and I thought: let's try the Iron Will mode. As far as I know, that means that I cannot buy any housing. So no huts, log houses or mansions (or any other things I do not yet know about). I gathered some catnip, build a field, harvested more catnip, and more catnip, and even some more. Then I got some wood and build a library. But I have no kittens to be a scholar! I have three libraries now and hit the maximum of catnip (5005) and wood (200.2) and no new buildings to build. What do I have to do?

Hmm, while I was waiting for an answer, the first astronomical event happened. That gave me 31 science, enough to buy the first technology. I think that (clicking events) is the only way to get science for now, and keep advancing in the game.

How do you get science in the iron will Kittens game?

Science: Astronomical events. As a bonus, Iron Will runs always have at least a 25% chance of these auto-succeeding, even without observatories. Remember that science buildings boost the reward from these. Catpower: Zebras will help you hunt.

How do you get the zebra kittens game?

In order to get an actual zebra joining your village, you will need to play in Iron Will mode (no huts/log houses/mansions built). You will know you've done it right when a Zebra shows up as an actual resource on the left section.
