🌙 Exploring Moon World and the basic Love-collection cycle
At the beginning, the protagonist falls into Moon World as an invisible presence. Walk through the castle town and visit Granny's house; receiving clothes finally allows residents to recognize you. Start by exploring the castle and town and observing how people and animals live. Understanding the world's rules nearby matters more than rushing far away.
Story progression and collecting Love — read →💗 Read Love Level, Action Limit, and the weekly cycle
Love is this world's equivalent of experience, earned by collecting animal souls and doing good deeds for residents. As you accumulate Love and raise your Love Level, your Action Limit—the maximum time you can stay active at once—increases. Early on, your low Love Level means you become sleepy before even a single night has passed, so gather Love steadily to build a foundation.
Love, Love Level, and time management — read →👜 Collect MOON souls and make good use of Neka and tools
The souls of animals killed by the Hero remain in the field; collecting them rescues the animals and earns Love. Animals sometimes move according to habits from their lives, and identifying those patterns makes their souls easier to find. Use hints in the animal encyclopedia to investigate where and when they appear.
