4. The menu is essential
Everything you do in your valley revolves around the menu. He dream light that you collect in the daily tasks and the tasks that you can still complete, the map to know where your favorite characters are, the available missions and the stages to follow, but above all the information on the collectibles of the game. From there , you can easily find out what gifts our colorful friends “need” quickly to pick them up, if you don’t already have them, before talking to them. Did you forget which ability you put on Mickey? You can also check it here. You don’t know where to find cotton for Minnie? The menu will tell you that too. All well accessible and in one place for you to consult.
5. Expand Your Inventory Whenever You Can
You have a lot of material to collect and little space at the beginning to be able to use it. You will have moments of upheaval, since during your missions they will give you elements that you cannot stop carrying and elements to pick up at the same time and your pockets without space to be able to carry it out. For this reason, we advise you not only to expand your personal inventory, but also to pay Scrooge to expand your house, as this will also expand the storage spaces inside your house.
6. Special Friends
At the beginning of the game, you will only have the possibility to interact with the inhabitants who have their own house in the valley, but as you progress and obtain DL, you will have the possibility to open the doors new kingdoms/movies and characters inside the grand castle. These initial characters will benefit you because not only will they provide you with new missions, but they will also have associated resources that they can harvest for you, as in the case of Moana with her ship or Wall-e and her orchard. Both characters will be able to give you these free resources daily and effortlessly for you. Well yes, the original Scrooge paying for them to have them.
7. Restaurant Remy
Our little French furry friend, like the two above, is accessible from the start against payment to Merlin with DL in the castle. Once you locate his luxurious Parisian apartment, you will have the possibility of being able to reform his restaurant and this will allow you to have access to other resources such as eggs, milk and butter, among others, necessary for certain recipes and that you can only have thanks to him. But in addition to accessing produce, you’ll be able to use his casserole dish and cook for hungry customers, which will help you raise their level bars in a different way than the ones already discussed above.
8. Don’t waste time doing chores alone
When you do the first mission of each of the inhabitants of your new favorite game, their level bar almost immediately jumps to the second level and this involves the responsibility of deciding what ability they will have from now on. For this reason, we recommend that you be accompanied whenever you perform collection tasks. Whether fishing on beaches or lagoons; to dig to make a garden or later to harvest its fruits; mining of precious stones; since not only will you increase your character’s pink bar, but it is also likely that you will gain an additional item in your collection.
9. Leave some space in your inventory just in case
Sometimes, during your expeditions in search of resources, it happens that at certain times, when you mine or collect vegetables from your garden, resources appear everywhere around you in a different color than usual when collecting them. If you don’t have the space to catch them in time, they will disappear, leaving you wishing you had done more for less at that exact moment.
10. Cook for yourself.
In this case, we advise you not only for the simple pleasure of doing it and seeing how, according to some of them, your energy bar turns yellow and gives you speed in your tasks after eating it, but also because you can sell certain recipes in one of Goofy’s stores and get extra coins. Coins that you will surely end up investing in one of the countless businesses that Uncle Scrooge owns in the Valley.
11. Plant seeds on rainy days.
While it is true that the game in situations such as using the watering can or planting seeds is faster and less tedious than in similar titles like Animal Crossing, it will also take time. That’s why we recommend that you take advantage of rainy days to plant these pending seeds, because that way you’ll save yourself the detail of having to give them later and you can devote yourself to other things when you’re done.
12. Use outdoor storage space.
One of the many things you can acquire from Scrooge will be storage chests that you can place in the various areas of the valley. This will allow you to quickly and without unnecessary travel access to the resources stored in your home when you need them at hand. If you also listen to us and combine it with tip 5, it will make the game much easier for you.
We hope that with these tips, your stay in the valley will be much more pleasant. Enjoy Disney Dreamlight Valley!
