10 things you might not know you can do in Spirittea!
Hey everyone! We hope you've been enjoying your new mountain homes and have been managing to help all of your new neighbours, both mortal AND immortal!
One of our favourite things we've seen in discord and across social media are people sharing tips and secrets with other people, so we thought we'd share a few of our own!
Here are 10 things you might not know you can do in Spirittea!
1 - Clean up the bathhouse
Fed up of all the dust and grime in your bathhouse? Housing more spiders each day than spirits? In your kitchen... uhh... prep area... there are two brooms - one downward broom and one for your ceiling. These are not just for scrubbing your spirits, but you can also use them to scrub your bathhouse (it's ok, we won't tell the spirits!). Spirits will still arrive if your bathhouse is a mess but... what will Wonyan think?
2 - Chase squirrels for seeds & start growing them!
Looking to start a new hobby alongside your bathhouse? How about chasing squirrels! The squirrels on the mountain near the bathhouse will drop little seed bags if you're quick enough (we're not just doing it to be mean, honest!!) and once you've upgraded your kitchen, you'll be able to grow your seeds in the kitchen garden on the windowsill to the south! What neat cooking ingredients can YOU grow?
3 - Investigate strangely coloured patches of ground
Headed out digging with your favourite townsperson, but not sure where to start? If you use your spirit vision around town, you might see some strangely coloured patches on the ground! I wonder which spirit left those behind? Either way, they seem to be a great way to kickstart your digging adventures, especially with a friend!
4 - Follow the Yellow Poo-Birds
Why do they call them Poo-Birds anyway? The townspeople seem to think they have a keen eye for treasure - they certainly seem to uhh... 'mark' a certain area once you've followed them around enough! I think they say bird poo is lucky?
5 - Harvest ingredients around town
There are SO many foodstuffs around town to include in your cooking, from ugligrass over near the beach to the east to the peppers and pumpkins further north! It's definitely worth investigating what you can pick up around town - you might be suprised at what you can find and what you can use in your cooking recipes! I know a fair few of the spirits are fond of these ingredients too, so you might need them for quests or shrines!
6 - Use bug traps to trap difficult insects
Are there some insects that avoid you at every step? Keep getting whacked by scary beetles with too many legs? Pick up some bug traps from Song's store, set them down in your nemesis' path and see if you can draw them over the traps! Your bug problems will be solved, and your pamphlet will get more full - win win!
7 - Leave offerings at shrines to appease the spirits
If you're looking for more spirits to help, there are four shrines around the map where you can leave various offerings! These are all tied to four particular spirits who seem to have been forgotten and neglected to the townsfolk, so are great guides to both finding more things by exploring the town and picking up a new spirit friend for the bathhouse!
8 - Catch rare fish by taking a friend
Did you know fish spawn more often when you have a friend fishing with you? If you're hunting down specific rare fish, make sure to take a friend to maximise your chances of finding them, and try fishing in some strange places, like near the hot spring!
9 - Steal people's slippers to decorate the bathhouse
The first 'feature' I fell in love with in Spirittea is definitely that people will just ALLOW you to take things from their homes (I'm a bit of a loot goblin!). I always leave these along with the smaller friendship items in the bathhouse as decorations, and honestly, you should too! They really brighten the place up, and you can make these spaces your own!!
10 - Regain some stamina by resting in your home bath
Phew, after such a long list my stamina is running low! If yours is too, you can use the little bath in your house to regain some before you head back out on your adventures!!
