One tip I've never seen addressed is the storage in shops. If you go to a shop and see a little dresser, you can examine it to access your fridge/shelves and everything inside! Very handy if your inventory is full on a particular tab and you need to buy something.

[@GdaGiant]

I dont know if you mentioned this before, but each town has a certain season so that you can plant all year round i.e. the 1st village is a spring village, so tomatoes can be grown there even if you're currently in winter season.

[@angorahm4640]

My personal method to get fodder was to set up one of the farms near a warp point (I the did breezy field) with sprinklers and fodder corn super early on and just come back every three days. I'm rich on feed 😅 Also another good thing to look out for when fishing is that the fish creates a "splash" when you pull away from them. Sometimes you think it's right but it isn't and their won't be a splash. Another thing is when expecting larger/higher quality fish use bait and cast close to the shore. It makes for less reeling time and the bait should lure them over to you.

[@josiemajka3229]

My fodder corn just disappears after 2 harvests?

[@mikomistar1423]

I am also too lazy to fish all the time however I do have one spot that I am fond of. From the Herbstburg farm area go SE to that small beach area. Two spots there and easily pull 10k daily off the snakeheads there. So if you were using that farm base it makes a really easy daily chore I guess

The flower festival is easy once you get one of each flower seeds. I managed to get it by Day 18 of Spring Year 1. Also a good tip is collecting a ton of stone, iron, and bronze during the tutorial days since time doesn't move. Also chopped down every tree with the time pause too.

[@ViktorE1drich]

lilikala was my second village you can earn $100,000+ a day by fishing up everything there, and as you catch more fish your fishing rank increases you catch higher quality fish more easily even without rod upgrades

Thanks for explaining fishing, I was wondering why I could never get the big fish and that explains everything!

Thanks for taking the time to comment! I was confused at first as well.

[@SharonKofoed]

Thanks for these tips and tricks! Still haven't started playing this yet...but the crochet project that is taking a lot of my time is nearly complete, so I may start playing it soon! Along with more of the Ooblets Halloween event and Fae Farm...that game is SO relaxing for me and I've been able to get lost in it (not in the "where's my map, I need to turn the tracking on because I'm lost" kind of way...the "I'm able to just block everything out and totally focus on the game and nothing else" kind of way (well, I say "nothing else"...but I mean "anything that's not Pokemon anime playing on my tablet right next to my Switch :P"))...based on how I felt when I was playing OW, I have a feeling WoA will give me that same vibe! The cultural level "locks" remind me of leveling up the tows in SoS:3oT (which is my FAV SoS game!)

also fishing, its easier if you move the line closer to you vs over top the fish esp if they are bigger fish

open up your doc pad and mark on the map for fodder corn seed spawns. mine come up reliably inthe same place :o easy! i love how accessible seeds are in this game. like you dont have to worry about it at all. like i mean its not ever really a money worry to get seeds. its annoying they only sell 3 at a time in the shops but thats kinda okay and beside hte point because you can just get them for free in the wild

Thanks for the tips! I just bought the game saturday and im doing the tutorial 😅 but you know if trees and Stones respawns fast or they take a while? I also noticed my stamina is not running out while im on the tutorial ... maybe its a good idea to forage stuff with no penalities 😮 Also, there is only 3 outfits? Summer, winter and default? They have color variations?

[@elithegaymer]

The things respawn very quickly! Don’t worry about that. The outfits do not have color variations and there are only three in the base game. There is one extra set with the DLC pass (that looks quite good).

[@biancabunny6207]

@@elithegaymer Oh that's very sad! I remember that HM One World had multiple variations of the same outfit in different colors patterns...they cost really expensive but still a option to look foward in the late game, its a pity they removed it 🤔 I think Natsume needs to learn more about customization 😅 having more colors for the hair and eyes are great but hairstyles and clothes should be a thing too...

[@dinosaur8682]

I just bought the game a few days ago, I'm on the last day of Spring, year 1. I'm still honestly confused by how this game works. Is the main quest tied to individual quests? How do I know what the main quest is? Can I ignore individual quests until I beat the game, then go back and do them? Or is that the main quest? Helping out all the villagers in the town? I was sorta hoping to just help the village leaders, and then do the rest of the villagers quest later on. Though, I want to start building a good connection with Neil, because I plan to marry him later on, so I do try and get his quests done. I'm also stuck on the flower festival part right now, I have no idea where to find all the flowers that are needed for it.

[@elithegaymer]

You don’t have to do every individual quest to continue the story. It can be a bit difficult sometimes to know what the main quest is, but usually it’s the sprites or the marriage candidates asking you to do something for the village. That’s the one that you want to do.

[@dinosaur8682]

@@elithegaymer Thank you!

[@rolandoabu4115]

how can i get across the water to get the harvest fruit

[@elithegaymer]

It needs to be the right season (and sometimes the right weather). An easy way to check to see if you can get it on any given day is to check the map. Light blue means you can access that area on that day. For providence, it either has to be late summer or a rainy day in summer. I got it on a rainy day towards the end of summer.

Hey this is not related to the video, but when you get a spouse in the game, do they help with the animals or farming? I married Judy recently and so far she just walks around inside the house and doesn't help...hopefully that changes lol

[@elithegaymer]

Unfortunately, they do not help out on the farm. I actually attended a behind the scenes event before the game was released, and we asked the developers if our spouses would help out on the farm and the guy from Natsume said “Yeah, it’d be nice if we could get married and our spouse would do all the work, but no, you have to keep working even after you’re married.” T_T I also am a bit disappointed because I dislike how in most games you as the main character do EVERYTHING and the NPCs don’t do anything. It makes the game feel much more alive when the NPCs actually help out and do stuff (like in AC, HM64, etc.).

[@drambo84]

You only need silver for the early game quest - you don’t need silver bars until later. Silver can be found on floor ten and below. Some tips - Spend a day or two foraging for all the fruits and things so you can eat them to restore stamina. Two - when hitting the rocks, only hit once, wait to see if rocks fall, and then you can hit it again. Good luck!
