Some tips for Grimshire after my first playthrough**:
1. Meet everyone on the first day. They have your tools.
2. After that, use the first week to grind as hard you can. Chop trees, and especially mine as much as possible.
3. Upgrade the pickaxe and the fishing rod as fast as possible. There's fishes you won't be able to get without upgrading the rod.
4. Befriend Rufus, Lila, Kai, Tano, Percy, Theo and the deer priest and talk to them whenever possible
5. Prioritize donating to Adeline's research, it's very important to complete it as fast as possible to get new methods of preservation.
6. Collect and save tree seeds. Don't bother processing them besides the maple.
7. Buy from the shops every week. Money is easy to get, resources aren't.
9. Mine chests can have preserves
10. Start ranching as early as possible. Even if it's just a bluggy
11. Wheat doesn't need water. Plant a lot of it
12. Check the lost and found box inside the town hall often
13. Some items can be double processed
14. As soon as the trees stop producing fruit or seeds chop them down .
15. Open the extra mines as soon as possible
16. Check the root cellar. Eat or sell the things that are about to expire. The game doesn't let you do separate piles of items so be careful to join fresh ones with older ones, it will lower their lasting time.
17. Make at least 6 drying racks to start
**this list was done during the first release. Game has been updated since and some things may not apply anymore.
