Notes

• Decem­ber 2023 — Was stuck after Green Frog Dream, being unable to sleep with­out the game freez­ing and there­fore unable to pro­ceed with time. An update to game soft­ware per­formed on Switch, revert­ed my game to before the Green Frog Dream. Suc­cess­ful­ly saw the dream, then next sleep suc­cess­ful with­out any crash­ing.
• After fin­ish­ing the main quests, the game stat­ed that I’m miss­ing 8 quests, but I can’t seem to find any way to start them.

Tips

• Save often not just rely­ing on autosave because the Switch ver­sion crash­es a lot, most­ly dur­ing autosaves
• Do not go down the rocks behind the Sad Alpaca with­out an Owl Stand! Game break­ing stuck area despite there being a recipe rock there!
• If there are no more forth­com­ing quests, go to sleep and/or talk to Grand­par­ents
• You don’t actu­al­ly have to play the Dreams. Just can­cel out of them. The only excep­tion is the wolf one.
• Most ani­mals are hap­py to eat Cala­mus grass
• Eat lots of Rata­touille (easy in the begin­ning)
• Car­ry and eat lots of berries/fruits to quick­ly replen­ish sta­mi­na and eas­i­ly man­age goose attacks
• Keep play­ing the fish­ing game against Grand­pa to get enough nails for the Sad Alpaca bridge
• The game gives you just enough nails to advance at the pace it intends for you
• Most of the minigames are frus­trat­ing and dif­fi­cult
• After get­ting the pigs onto the farm, there will be truf­fle-lov­ing pigs roam­ing around. You can ride them!
• Turn on “Calm Horse Cam­era” in the Game­play Set­tings if you’re prone to motion sick­ness like I am
• If your game con­tin­u­al­ly freezes on the load­ing screen after a dream or try­ing to sleep, just run around until the wolves come out and kill you. That will avoid dreams and allow you to progress to the next lev­el. Hope­ful­ly this mas­sive bug/glitch has been resolved with the update.
