Quest
Quests are specific events that earn players rewards or unlocked new storylines. Quests are divided into main quests, side quests, and errands in Coral Island.
Errands
Errands are randomized, time-limited quests that the player can take on from the job boards in Starlet Town, B.O.S. Hideout and the Merfolk Kingdom. Once accepted, most errands must be completed in certain days. Completing an errand rewards the player with an amount of money dependent on the type of errand, friendship points and any items delivered.
Connor will send a total of 5 mails in the next morning if player completing the errand (excluding Merfolk Kingdom errand) for the first time, 5 errands done, 25 errands done, 50 errands done, and 100 errands done.
