    I have found Josh, that if you can not access a villager, such as a hunter being out of the village for the night, or a villager being locked away for illness. You can mail the quest item to them just like paying taxes. Majority of the time you do have to find them on the map, but the devs knew sometimes people are unable to be reached, at least thats what i've found, and i saw in one of your playthroughs, you had a quest to turn in to a sick villager and you could of mailed it in. Much love keep playing and learning with us! ♡

    Tip about the Fishing Festival: I too had my fishing rod break that day. However the Mayor was selling them since he was "hosting" the event I guess. You can also keep fishing after the time frame to get more fish pieces to get the fishing rod. I only had like 450 when the event ended, fished a few more fish up, and ta dah enough to get my fishing rod. Trash did count as well, but only for like 1 to 5 points or something.

    You can remotely send quest items to those villagers who are away on long trips, I think it's the hunters who do that. You will see their icon in the forest, not moving, and they will be missing from the village for days.
    Also, I highly recommend first time players (especially if you never played farm sims much previously) to turn off food and tool decay. Get a feel for the game first, and then if you feel like it, you can up the challenge. You can even turn off taxes, diseases, fishing minigame, adjust the aging. The whole point of games is to have fun, and not stress over the fact that you are broke, your tools are broken, your food is rotten, and you run around like a headless chicken, trying to keep your character alive and somehow manage a farm too.

    • @jamie1602
      @jamie1602 Před měsícem

      I'd second this. I'm used to these types of games so I left it on. I was DELIGHTFULLY surprised about the rot and the fertilizer. JACKPOT.
      The fact you can turn it back on is just really nice. Some days... you really aren't feeling that. That, for me, gives Plum Grove a tiny bit of an edge over other games. That when I'm done being frustrated with my day, I can go back to that.

    • @Dimension2364
      @Dimension2364 Před měsícem

      My friend recently started growing vegetables in her garden and the fascinating thing is that this game mechanic is actually realistic in real life. 😍 For example my friend has a raised bed in which she grows carrots. She can just keep the carrots under ground in there during winter and they will not rott for a very long time - so she can just pull carrots out of the earth when ever she needs some for cooking.
      It’s a small detail but I just found it so cool that the Devs incorporated this. 🥰 Such a sweet and beautiful game!

    Once the beekeeper went up into the forest and disappeared, as I had all the mission items she just appeared to me on the map but it's as if she had traveled to the Amazon or simply bugged, then I saw a letter to send the mission items like this as it appears when it comes to paying fees to the mayor.
