👜 Collect MOON souls and make good use of Neka and tools
An overview of collecting the souls (MOON) of animals killed by the Hero, and using the Neka currency and tools you obtain. Focus on how each resource leads to Love or progress rather than collecting objects for their own sake.
moon — what should I check first in MOON souls, tools, and money?
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.

|---|---|---|
| Early game | Understand how to collect Love |
|
| Midgame | Extend your activity time and advance residents' events |
|
| Late game | Reach the ending |

1. Running out of activity time and being unable to move
Cause: Too little Love means a low level and limited time
Solution: Collect Love reliably and raise your level before going farther
2. Unsure what to do
Cause: Not understanding residents' daily routines
Solution: Observe and record who is where at different times
3. Unable to collect a particular soul
Cause: Its appearance conditions or timing have not been met
Solution: Check the event's requirements and time window before acting

You obtain this world's currency, Neka, when collecting animal souls and in other situations.
