Run the first-day return checklist

  1. Update the game and preserve a backup using your platform's supported method.
  2. Load the intended save and confirm date, season, money, stamina, and active requests.
  3. Review the relationship, town repair, renown, skill, museum, animal, and mine interfaces.
  4. Read new requests before selling or crafting stored materials.
  5. Choose one objective for the day and keep rare or seasonal items until its requirements are clear.

Choose a narrow next objective

  • Advance a town repair or story request
  • Reconnect with a romanceable villager and review new heart content
  • Audit farm automation and animal care
  • Finish a museum or dungeon target
  • Prepare for the next seasonal event

Know what carries over

NPC Studio's full-release FAQ says all normal saves carry over and achievements can be awarded retroactively for earlier accomplishments. It also says the game remains focused on PC for launch.

What still needs live verification

This is a dated independent guide answer. Update-sensitive mechanics, values, availability, and interface paths can change; the current live game and official announcements remain final.

Official descriptions establish stable scope. Interface paths, balance, values, rewards, schedules, and version-specific behavior must still be checked in the current game build.
