Can you see the map at the top right of your game window? You should have been introduced to it in the tutorial, and if you click on it you'll get some perspective. There's some learning of the different areas involved as well. Let me know if you can't see your map.
yes, i can see the map of that particular level and the magnifying glass lets me see the a larger area of that land. I guess I thought there was an overall map too showing the bigger picture of how all the lands connect.
I, too am stuck on one 'region' (forest). I have looped it twice but can't find a way out! I guess this is part of the game but it is a wee but frustrating
There's a map which shows all connections, that was created by one of the players. If you join this group you'll be able to see it. (http://alpha.glitch.com/groups/RIFMOJS39CB1ULP)
