โ“ Q&A

Q:
What if I’m already in Year 3+?
A: All quests will be safe, but you may miss a few non-important early-game letters.
 
Q: Does this support Stardew Aquarium?
A: Not yet! Integration depends on the Aquarium mod’s authors, but it may happen in the future.
 
Q: How can I do a specific quest?
A: Scroll down to the bottom of the page to see how it can be activated!
 
Q: Are there any universally loved gifts?
A: Yes! The Mermaid's Pearl, and the Mermaid's Tear, both sell for handsome amounts as well.
 
Q: Are quests added when other mods are installed?
A: Yup! When SVE, Ridgeside, East Scarp, Tilly Librarian, or Arumi the Actress mods are installed, quests are added for character(s) in each mod! The mod removes all data related to them when uninstalled, that way no glitched data is ever present. : )
