Help! I have only just started playing this game and was doing very well until a scorpion showed up on my island. I began in the easy mode so that I could learn without having to face any serious threats. I am unable to kill or trap the little monster and it has become very aggressive.

Please don't tell me to change the programmaing; I am not a geek either by formal or informal education. I am just a lowly anthropologist who needs an occasional diversion. I am now so frustrated that I am ready to quit (studying paleodermatoglyphics is frustrating enough) - how do I kill the little fucker?

Jump on something like a stone so it cant hurt you, then use a hammer,spear, bow or whatever to kill it without getting infected. If you cant kill it, its may unkillable

RUN AWAY!
Seriously :P.
Unless you really want to kill it it's best to leave it alone. As Fred said you will need a spear, or a catapult.
For a spear combine a rock and a branch.
For a catapult combine a vine and a branch.
You will need pebbles for a catapult. Hopes this helps.

LOL, yes then, a slingshot. I always used to call a catapult: catapult and slingshot: captapult and slingshot. Sorry, yes I mean the handheld version.

I've tried sling shots, shovels, scyths, hammers, stone tipped arrows, fire, picks, matchetes; actually, I have resorted to running away but it continues to expand its territory and now controls almost one quarter of a small island! Thanks for the suggestions though. I'll check back weekly just in case someone encounters the same situation and figures it out. Meanwhile, I have saved that game and changed islands. I quess you could consider that cheating but as I said, I am not a serious gamer. (although this game may make me one!)

Just keep hitting with a meele weapon and back away. If you don't hit, stop walking for a millisecond and then walk backwards again. Repeat until dead.

This is why people who want to survive make the Arbalest.

when i had a scorpion problem i did what i do for lions. i built a gaurd tower and let it kill them for me. it attacks all hostiles that come in range of it. and if you have a bow then you can pick up the arrows the tower shoots and have a nice supply of free arrows as well.

You're funny guys. Really.
You only need just one spear. Throw it at the scorpion's tail to kill it.
That's all.

Or if this is still too difficult, kill him with the machete and drink a healing potion afterwards.

By the way, the trap must be the reason why there is a scorpion on the first island. Keep it closed if you are afraid of scorpions.

Here's a two-step easy way to kill the scorpion:

1. Hit with a hammer, and back away.
2. If not yet dead, repeat #1.

Of course, the guard tower can definitely help.
