Mail is one of the ways the player communicates with characters both present and not present in the game. Most mail is sent to the player's mailbox in the morning (with the exception of cooking recipes that may arrive on the same day the player reaches the required friendship level with the character who sends the recipe). The mailbox is located outside the farmhouse on the right and can be interacted with.
Some letters contain attached items. These items can be accepted into the player's inventory after they read the letter.
Types of letters
Some letters are sent to the player randomly, others are received at fixed points in time or during main or secondary quests. Some letters inform the player of news regarding the town, new items available in stores, or new Town rank reached. Over time, the player will also get letters from their family, their old employer, and Farmers Guild. Townfolk will send the player items or cooking recipes as the player gets closer to them. The player might also receive recurring letters, for example for passing out after after 01:00.
Most of the letters the player has received can be found in the Journal menu (notes section).
