Not only is it nice to help them out, but they'll often give you a nice reward for it, and sometimes this can even help out with sub-missions down the line or main missions. Whatever your reason, there's plenty of them for you to do as you pass the days in Unbent Village.

How To Complete All Sub-Missions

Sub-missions become available after you complete the first few main missions, and they offer you a source of different materials, such as Fluorite and Raw Sapphire.

Several of them are stand-alone, but most come in a chain and have to be completed in order, and they can even unlock new mechanics for you, such as Vegetables With Grandma One introducing farming and giving you access to the rest of the Vegetable entries.

While Cooking Challenges are considered sub-missions and may need ingredients from Unbent Village, they're specific to Coal Town and Yosoi's Diner and have separate completion mechanics.

A handful of sub-missions are also required to complete the game, either due to providing you with access to an important item, or unlocking necessary ingredients:

  • Rose, Little Girl Roadblock
  • Vegetables With Grandma One
  • Vegetables With Grandma Two
