Farming & Crafting
Farming and crafting form the backbone of resource generation in Spellborne, giving players the ability to grow crops, harvest materials, and create useful items that support monster care and progression. These systems encourage planning, daily engagement, and interaction with the game’s economy.
Farming
Overview
Farming allows players to cultivate crops that can be used as food for monsters, ingredients for crafting, or traded in the player-driven marketplace.
Unlock farming early in the game via Heiwa Village.
Each plot supports different seasonal crops and multi-season harvests.
Crops reflect supply and demand in the economy, shaping in-game trade.
Mechanics
Growth Cycles: Crops have specific growth times and must be harvested within a set window (e.g., 18 hours) or they will wither.
Withered Crops: Provide compost, used for other systems rather than wasted.
Monster Preferences: Each monster has likes and dislikes—feeding them favorite crops increases trust.
Player Impact
Farming ties directly to monster happiness, battle readiness, and economy participation.
Creates long-term engagement with seasonal changes and crop management.
