Nora to Toki no Koubou: Kiri no Mori no Majo（Nintendo DS）
⚗️ Timecrafting, Gathering, and Managing Your Days
This game's crafting system is timecrafting, an art described as manipulating the time of matter. The basic cycle is to gather materials and combine processing and disassembly to produce the items you need. Actions such as gathering, traveling, and crafting consume time in days, so making good use of the limited period is central to progression. Understanding the system early makes both fulfilling requests and preparing ending requirements much easier.

Timecrafting lets you process materials into other forms or disassemble items back into materials. To make a particular item, work backward to determine how to obtain its required materials. Materials you do not currently have can sometimes be obtained by disassembling another item. Keeping the connections between recipes and materials in mind expands your crafting options.

At gathering sites, select from the displayed targets to collect materials. Factors called traits affect gathering results, including the amount obtained and the circumstances. Learning what each gathering site provides helps you secure the necessary materials efficiently. Even a single gathering action advances the calendar, so keep your objectives focused.

Almost every action consumes days, so you must continually decide how much time to spend on each task. Keep request deadlines and seasonal changes in mind, and handle tasks together when possible. Unfocused activity can leave you short of time late in the game, so give each action a purpose. Planning ahead makes it easier to balance story progression and character development.
- ▸ Schedule your activities on the basis that each action uses up days
- ▸ Keep track of request deadlines and changing seasons
- ▸ Combine gathering and errands to improve efficiency
