Gathering

Chop trees, break rocks, fish, dig and plant: most of what you build and cook starts here.

Where you can gather

  • On your own island and in the Overworld.
  • In the Town you can only fish.

Harvesting

  • Stand on a tree, rock, bush or plant and choose Harvest (Mine on a gold mine, Collect Water on water). Each harvest gives 1 and takes a few seconds, and you need room in your backpack.
  • Trees, rocks and herbs turn into bare soil when they are used up, then grow back. Bushes and palms stay where they are and refill.
  • An empty bush or palm can be cut down for what it is made of, but then it is gone for good and your reputation drops by 1.
  • Grown Birch and Oak trees sometimes drop a seed on the soil next to them. It stays there for 2 hours.

Fishing

  • Stand in shallow water and choose Fish. When something bites, tap within 1.5 seconds to reel it in.
  • Sometimes nothing bites, and sometimes you pull up junk: Seaweed, Tin Can and Old Boot.
  • Lakes and rivers have different fish from the sea. Some fish only bite by day and some only at night, and your island is always in daylight.
  • Leech and Narwhal only live in the Overworld.
  • Your very first catch is always a Salmon.
  • Fish can't be eaten raw or kept in the Storage Room: cook them, keep them in an Aquarium, or let them go in water they live in.

Digging

  • Stand on bare soil and choose Dig. It costs 75 energy and opens a 4×4 board with 5 taps.
  • Something is buried under the board. Uncover all of it to keep it. Run out of taps first and it stays buried.
  • Sometimes it is a rock: uncover it and a rock appears on that spot, which you can then harvest for Stone.
  • One square always hides 5 coins.
  • You can dig the same spot again after 30 seconds.

What you can dig up, from most to least common:

The treasure chest

  • The bird

    Now and then a bird pecks at the ground somewhere in the Overworld. Walk up to it and it flies away.

  • The chest

    Dig where it was within 10 minutes to find a locked chest. It stays there for 24 hours.

  • The crow

    A crow then turns up somewhere else, carrying the Silver Key. Walk into it and it drops the key.

Open the chest with the key for 50 coins, plus 1 more for each point of your active Folk's Luck.

Planting

  • Stand on soil and plant a seed from your backpack. Buy seeds at the Flower Shop in the Town, dig them up, or pick them up under grown trees.
  • Fertile soil helps a seed survive, and on dry soil most seeds die. Pour Fresh Water on soil to make it more fertile.
  • Seeds grow on soil and red desert. Coconuts only grow on sand, and fewer than half of them take root.
  • Herbs and tulips wilt after a while. Trees, bushes and palms stay for good.
  • Tulips come in 4 colours, picked at random when you plant them. They are just for looks.
  • Planting a seed raises your reputation by 2.
