How to open next area

Use shovels and torches to open up new areas.

Why it is necessary to burn corpses

About limit of turns after which the game automatically ends

The game will come to the end at some point, either by Bastion being overrun by the enemy or by the relief forces freeing you from oppression. However, the exact time it takes to end depends on the selected scenario / new game plus initial settings.

Food and resources

Forge, Forge level 2 infact, you need iron bars and a lot of them, most of your core crafting stations require iron bars to upgrade to level 2, and upgraded stations take less resources to perform the same crafting functions that level 1 has available to them, the easiest way to stay ahead in this game is to get your core crafting facilities up to level 2 ASAP.

Gardens use is pretty much determined by your animals, if you have no chickens then you need vegetables to replace eggs, otherwise you make herbs to use in rat traps, a single herb farm makes enough to support 3-4 rat traps being constantly baited.

And to make effective use of your food, delay moving down to the next stage until it gets smelly, once its smelly, if its vegetables or raw meat, you dry it to preserve it longer, and once those get smelly, you cook them into meals, once those meals start getting smelly send them to the bastion or eat them yourself, and if you dont need to do either of those, take them with you on your next scavenger run and sell them for useful resources.
