There were several reasons that convinced Troost to leave Kiribati after two years. The first was missing air-conditioning, clean water, and food other than fish. The second was the fear of cultural shock if they had stayed any longer. They had heard stories of people not being able to adjust back to their old way of life after they moved from Kiribati. The last one was when they saw just how bad the cultural shock could be. Half-Dead Fred had been on the island for a long time, and when he was introduced to an old computer game, he was put into a zombie like state, memorized by what he saw.
