You only have one day for this (which lasts 60 seconds). However, you're not the only one trying to survive. There are also wasps and they will attack if you come to close.\r\nAfter the first day, your children will also have to survive but the world will get tougher each day.\r\nI hope you will enjoy this!","title":"The life of Jerry, a mayfly"}
