	'''The Day/Night Cycle''' is a simulation close to that of the real world as the game at ~~it's~~ heart is a planet renderer. The duration of daytime is not consistent, with winter days being very short and summer days very long, as well as being affected by where on the globe your tribe is. This is most noticeable near the poles, where summer day times are extremely long and winter nights are extremely long as well.

	Light is important to the productivity of a tribe of Sapiens. If there is insufficient light many tasks will not be performed by Sapiens until there is light again, and darkness also has a negative [[Status effect\|status effect]] on a Sapien's mood. Lighting for areas where tasks are commonly completed can be augmented with [[Torch\|Torches]], which provide additional light and sapiens will continue to work into the evening.
