How to Pass Time in Fantasy Life i: The Girl Who Steals Time

by

In the game “Fantasy Life i: The Girl Who Steals Time“, there are two cycles known as day and night which can be switched. However, this feature won’t become accessible until after you’ve advanced a bit into Chapter 1. As you move forward with the main quests in “Fantasy Life i”, you’ll gradually unlock additional features that make it simpler (and cost-effective) to manage time. Until then, you can utilize inns for this purpose.

Where to Change Time in Fantasy Life i

Every Method of Passing Time

As the moments go by, you’ll find yourself deciding between the dawn and the evening. Here are three methods to alter the clock’s hand:

1. Traveling through space to a different time zone.
2. Inventing a device that can manipulate time directly.
3. Waiting patiently for time to pass naturally.

  1. Rest at an inn.
  2. Rest at Camp Sites.
  3. Rest in your house.

During Chapter 1, you can utilize the inn as needed. When embarking on the “Talk to Auntie Ann” mission in Chapter 1, a brief guide on managing time will be provided. This initial stay at the inn is complementary, but from then on, you’ll be responsible for covering your own expenses. For instance, the “Merc’s Inn” located in “Eternia Village” charges 10 units of currency, referred to as Dosh, per night.

Resting at inns is another way to recover your HP/SP if you’re out of HP/SP-recovery items.

At Camp Sites, you’ll find temporary shelters spread across the game world. These are perfect spots for taking a break, allowing both you and your character to regain some energy by resting. This rest will not only help pass time but also rejuvenate your Health Points (HP) and Spirit Points (SP).

At long last, here lies my humble abode, a place you’ll gain access to near the tail-end of Chapter 2. It serves as a crucial spot for advancing the narrative, unlike those costly inns. Remarkably, resting within this sanctuary won’t drain your Dosh, making it an appealing choice when you wish to unwind.

Day and Night Cycle Explained

Why Should You Pass Time?

Initially, it might not appear that altering the time has any advantages. Nevertheless, the day/night cycle can subtly impact various gameplay mechanics.

  • If you’re going to complete quests, then you may be required to look for a monster that only appears at night, etc. One example is the Red Wolf monster. For a Fledgling Challenge, you’ll need to defeat 6 Red Wolves, which spawn near the Capital of Mysteria, but only at night.
  • Monsters aren’t the only creatures that can be influenced by the day/nighttime cycle. Material drops can be different at different times. If you’re working on your Fish Life, then you’ll need to fish at different times of day to catch the rarer species.
  • There are also NPCs that will only spawn during the day (or night).

Additionally, remember to pay attention to the stores as they usually close after dark. Make sure you have all your necessities in hand.
