You finish Doloc Town 1.0 by answering the Eden questions in Old City. Story progress opens regions. The guild board holds three missions and refreshes every two days. Friendship caps at 100 liking with two gifts a week. Festivals are calendar gates: Salmon, Mushroom, and Long Night Festival. Steam added 80 achievements at 1.0 — pick one of these tracks or you will feel busy and unchanged.
There are 96 story and side missions plus 62 faction missions. Faction work wants funds and materials, then pays reputation. Notice boards in the wild are lore, not extra quests. If a shop will not sell an item, check a read email or a faction standing.
Guild and mail
Keep the board clear. Easy hunts and deliveries are the cheapest gold besides Kelp. Mail can unlock shops. Festival hats, lantern recipes, and studio disks arrive as letters when the event is live — they are not telephone codes.
Festivals
Salmon Festival occupies month 1 days 25–27. Mushroom Festival sits mid month 2, with a match day on the 18th. Long Night Festival in month 4 is a week of lanterns, firecrackers, cleaning, worship, gifts, and new year. Birthdays are listed on the Calendar tool. A birthday gift is a 3× liking multiplier. Missing Villain’s birthday is how people stay at “liked” forever.
Story completion
You complete 1.0 in Old City, not by 100-percenting every CD. Collection is optional and huge: 80 archive chips, every fish, every gene. Stop when the story is done. Open the catalogs only if you decide to keep going.
What to chase, and when to stop
Story opens Doloc Rivervalley, Wetland, and Old City Ruins. Guild is three missions and a two-day refresh. Friendship is two gifts a week and 3× on a birthday toward 100 liking. Festivals are events and the calendar. Steam trophies sit on those four tracks — use the overlay for English names. How to beat covers drone fights. How to find is 33 unmarked rooms. Codes 12311, 24141, and 35321 are booth disks, not completion.
96 story/side and 62 faction missions want funds and materials. Gift Finder before you waste a weekly slot — Hult wants keys the morning you need a bag. Walkthrough sequences regions. Pick one track. Then stop, or open a catalog on purpose.

Why won’t a shop sell me a seed?
Store unlocks can require an item, a faction mission, or a read email. The item is still in the game; your unlock is not.
How many gifts can I give per week?
Two. Birthdays still sit inside that cap, but they pay three times the reaction.
Do I need all 80 achievements for the story?
No. Achievements arrived with 1.0 as a collection list. Story progress opens regions and missions.
What if I missed the Salmon Festival?
Wait until next year. The fish and the melody checks are calendar gates. The fishing guide lists the day numbers.
Is collection required?
No. 80 archive chips, every fish, and every gene are optional. This page tells you when you can stop.
Do codes complete the game?
No. 12311, 24141, and 35321 are booth disks. Story completes in Old City.
