Everafter Falls Hints and Tips Guide

Everafter Falls is a cute RPG adventure game. I reviewed the game and gave it a score of I like it a lot. In the game, you will complete storyline quests to open more content, craft, gather resources and take part in combat in the dungeons in Everafter Falls.

However, while the game is cute and fun to play, it only offers a little help or direction for newcomers to the genre. In fact, even those players who have played this type of game before might need clarification about some aspects of the gameplay. So it’s time for an Everafter Falls hints and tips guide to help you out on your adventure.

Customise Your Character and Pet In Everafter Falls

After the game’s introduction, you can customise your character; you can choose skin and hair colour, hairstyle, the colour of their top and bottom garments, your favourite colour, the decoration you want on your shirt, and also the colour of your pet and your character gender, then click the “I’m ready” button.

Next, you have the choice of your farm layout. You can have a standard-sized farm with a farmhouse and a small lake, a mini-sized farm or a farm with a moat around it; the choice of which farm you choose is up to you. I went with the standard farm.

Spooklets

In Everafter Falls, your character does not have a stamina bar, so you don’t have to worry about running out of stamina. During combat in the Everafter Falls, four dungeons, you do have a health bar shown in the left corner of the screen; if you lose some health, it does regenerate on its own quite quickly, or you can use a potion. To save your game, you must sleep in bed at home.

Furthermore, each day does come to an end at midnight on the dot; an hour before midnight, you get a warning from the game that you have only an hour left before the Spooklets (mini ghosts) arrive to whisk you back to bed. If you don’t make it back to your home in time and into bed, the ghosts will put you to bed. The following morning, you will wake up later in the day, losing a few hours of daytime as punishment for not going to bed.

Inventory/ Backpack

To access your inventory, press the X button. To drop an item from your inventory, drag and drop it outside your inventory by pressing and dragging with the A button or pressing and holding the Y button.

Your inventory in Everafter Falls holds 12 items, which isn’t a lot; you can make a chest to store items in. I would suggest you make a chest as soon as you have the resources and place the chest outside your house somewhere it’s easy to access.

To use an item in your inventory while you are exploring Everafter Falls, use the L and R shoulder buttons to move left or right along the inventory slots. Whatever item the cursor is highlighting in your inventory, your character will hold that item in their hand.

Not only do you have your backpack, but your pet is able to have a total of 12 storage slots; it begins with four slots, which you can see underneath your inventory slots. Also, as you progress, you will have two support drones. These support drones have storage slots, which can be upgraded, too, giving you an additional 24 slots. So, by the late game, inventory capacity goes all the way up to 48 slots.

Your Pet and What it Can Do

Visit Daisy in the Animal Centre when you receive the quest “Your Little Companion” to be reunited with your pet; though you won’t remember them and will have to give your pet a name, my pet ended up being called No Name as I couldn’t think of anything to call it.

Once you have collected your pet from Daisy, the pet can help you on your homestead by tilling the ground and watering the crops.

To use your pet to till the soil, your character’s cursor should be on the tile in front of your character. Press the Y button to highlight the tile, and your pet will dig into that tile. Press the Y button on the same tile again for your pet to till the soil, which is now ready for the seeds. Press A while holding the seed packet to plant the seed on the tiled tile. Finally, press the Y button on the tile you have placed the seed on, and your pet will water the tile.

You can also select multiple tiles at once by holding the Y button on a tile and dragging it with the Left stick to highlight more than one tile. You can only highlight four tiles at the beginning of the game, but you can increase your pet’s stats to be able to highlight six or more tiles at once.

If your pet is busy tilling or watering, and you want to cancel the command, press and hold the B button to call your pet back to you.

Drones

Aamy will give you your first drone once the story has advanced enough, and you can buy a support drone in the shop. Once you get the drone, you have to place it on your characters’ attachment screen in the menu. The support drone has four storage slots, which gives you extra storage. The drone will follow you and your pet around as you explore Everafter Falls.

The Map and Gathering Resources

To view the map, press ZL. Once the map is on screen, you can use the L stick to move through the list of residents or buildings, enabling you to see exactly where each resident is at that particular time.

To view your quest list, press ZR. To gather resources such as mushrooms that are found around Everafter Falls or shells on the beach, press and hold the B button to pick these items up. You can also pull up trees that are still saplings by holding down the B button.

Eating Cards To Increase Stats

Everafter Falls has a unique way to increase your character and your pet’s stats. Every so often, after you complete a storyline quest, you are given a choice to pick one of three cards. Once you choose a card, it goes into your inventory. However, don’t leave it in your inventory; for your character and pet to gain the stats on the card, your character must eat the card. So, go into your inventory by pressing the X button to access it. Click on the card, and your character will get the option to eat the card to gain the stats it provides.

As you progress in the game, you may find scraps of edible card fragments lying around Everafter Falls. Once you have three pieces of blank edible card, you can take them to Edgar, who runs the Print shop. Hand the three pieces of cards over to Edgar, and he can pulp them up for you and combine them into a Blank Edible Card. You can then choose a card design in the Print shop, and Edgar will print the card for you, which your character can eat. It’s a neat way to increase your character and pets stats.

Shipping Bin

You can find the shipping bin to place items for sale outside Cid’s Store; exit to the right of the map when you are at your homestead. You can place any items you have made or found in the shipping box to sell them for gold coins.

If you make a mistake and put something into the shipping box you do not want to sell, press the RED button at the side of the shipping bin, and the last five items that were added to the shipping box will move back to your inventory slots.

The Museum

Everafter Falls has a massive museum in the town just to the left of where your home is. You can donate items that you have gathered, caught, or grown to the museum.

Anything with a blue star beside an item in your inventory means that the museum does not have that item displayed, so you will know what needs to be donated. To donate an item to the museum, walk up to the green donation box in the museum with the item you wish to add to it highlighted in your inventory so your character can hold the said item in their hand and donate the item to the box. Museum credit is earned for completing any collection. You can exchange the credit for an edible card of your choice.

The Aquarium

There is a large aquarium in the town square in Everafter Falls. This aquarium needs help to repopulate it, and that is your job. Walk up to the aquarium with the item you wish to add to it highlighted in your inventory so your character holds the said item in their hand and donate the item to the aquarium via the green donation box at the front of the aquarium. Similar to the Museum, credit is earned for every item you donate to the aquarium for completing any collection.

Penguin Post

All mail-in Everafter Falls is delivered through Penguin Post. Pip and Pepper are the penguins that run this service and use carrier Pigeons to do the delivery. Now and again, you may find a pigeon who needs to remember how to fly. Take it to the post office, where Pip and Pepper will give it a job delivering mail while at the same time rehabilitating it.

In the post office, you can also find a shredder machine, which you can use to recycle your letters. As a reward, you will receive an organic paper fragment.

Combat in Everafter Falls

The four dungeons in Everafter Falls can be accessed via the town’s Portal. Combat in the game is relatively shallow and easy. Your character is armed with a sword, and they can do a decent amount of damage to enemies. You can also increase your character stats for combat using the stat card-eating system in the game.

In the dungeons, you will also find different stones and ores to mine using your pick axe. All tools, including your sword and pick axe, can be upgraded by Bam in the blacksmith workshop once you supply him with the resources and the coins. You will also find portals in the dungeon, which you can use to get from one area of the dungeon to another.

If you die while in the dungeon, your character is taken back home, and you must pay some coins at the Portal before it will let you warp to the dungeon again; in other words, you must pay for the privilege of being rescued.

Crafting

In Everafter Falls, you will be required to do some crafting to complete quests, and basically, crafting is how you earn coins in the game by selling what you have crafted.

You’ll be able to make plenty of items f that will help you make other neat stuff. Here are just some of the equipment you can craft and what each machine does.

• Shell Crusher = Add shells to create bricks.
• Shell Extractor = Place on the sand at the beach, and it will extract two shells every day.

Fishing

You can fish in Everafter Falls or any of the rivers or lakes. When you see dark silhouettes of fish swimming underwater, these indicate fishing spots. Using a Fishing Rod that you can craft, you can catch various fish through a simple minigame.

In this Fishing minigame (image above), the rings spin at different speeds, and you must stop them to catch a fish. Once the rings are stopped, the hook falls and bounces into any valid gap below. The catch is determined by the last ring the hook falls through, and if it falls all the way to the centre, you catch the fish in the middle of the ring. It’s not difficult to do; it just takes a bit of practice to stop the ring at the correct time.

Pixie Deposit Chest

The Pixies deposit box lives on the right side of the town. The pixies will deposit any items they harvest into the Pixie Deposit box. It’s your task to empty the chest, and you can sell the items, use them for crafting, or donate them to the Museum.

A Pixie Bottle is required to catch and transport Pixies around. Once bottled, they can be placed on various objects by interacting with that object with the bottle in your hand.

You have to hold the bottle in your hand, and if there is a Pixie in it, press the A button when facing the thing you want to place it on. Note that different coloured pixies can only be placed on certain things; interact with the Pixie Poster on the wall inside Dawn’s house to see which Pixies can be placed on what; it’s on the wall leading to the bedroom on the left.
