Gathering

Gathering is how most days in Cozyville begin. There are four gathering skills, and each one grows quietly as you use it. The more you practice, the better the materials you can reach.

The four skills

• Fishing. Cast at the water's edge and see what comes up.
• Farming. Plant crops, water them, and come back when they are ready.
• Mining. Work stone and ore out of the rock, all the way up to rare gems.
• Woodcutting. Chop trees for logs and wood.

None of it punishes you. A node never fails you, it simply takes a little time. Trees regrow, ore replenishes, and crops ripen on their own, so the world keeps turning while you are away.

A day of gathering fills your bags with the makings of everything else:

A world to roam

Cozyville is not one place but several, joined together. You start in the town, and through its gates you can wander to the Whispering Woods, the Stonestep Quarry, and the Greenfields. Each region is home to its own materials, so a walk somewhere new is always worth it.

As your skills rise, better nodes and richer materials open up. You are never locked out of the cozy core. You simply reach more of the world, and gather a little faster and a little luckier as you go.

Where to go next

Once your bags are full, it is time to make something. See Crafting and market.
