The townsfolk in Forgotten Valley is one of the fun features in Story of Seasons: A Wonderful Life that players can interact with. They can enjoy all kinds of surprises and events with the NPCs throughout the valley, but earning their favor unlocks even more. Players must talk to them, complete Bulletin Board Requests, and give them gifts.
Gift-giving is an easy way to increase romantic and platonic relationships with the citizens of Forgotten Valley. However, everyone has unique tastes, and what's one person's trash could be another person's treasure. So, here's a complete guide on gift-giving in A Wonderful Life that includes how to give gifts and what they all like.
How to Give Gifts in A Wonderful Life
The farm grows, as does the town in Story of Seasons: A Wonderful Life. The NPCs occupying the village will grow and experience events with players. Some events can be triggered as players get closer to them, which enhances the storyline and gameplay. The quickest way to increase affection and relationship levels is to give the residents their favorite gifts.
To hand someone a gift, equip it from the inventory and show it to the desired person. Players can use everything in their inventory other than tools as a gift, but there isn't a guarantee that their target will accept it. All the NPCs have distinct personalities and tastes, which means they will like and dislike certain items. Additionally, players can change their minds if they accidentally show someone a gift or don't want to give it away.
