While most farming sims require social presents, Story of Seasons: A Wonderful Life takes gift-giving to a whole new level. Players will find the usual need to offer potential love interests desired tokens, but this same attention is needed for every NPC in the game, otherwise they will miss out on important items and moments locked behind friendship levels.
Sure, this will take some time and effort. That’s why the game lures you into this mechanic under the promise of receiving a reward at the end of the line. Luckily, these rewards aren’t just “5x tomato seeds” or “1x female cow.” Instead, A Wonderful Life players will receive game-changing items, like an overpowered tool or a new in-game feature.
