Alex鈥檚 loved gifts
Thankfully (or unfortunately, depending on how you look at it) Alex has a very limited number of things that he loves to receive. On one hand, this makes it very easy to remember but on the other hand馃, it does mean you鈥檒l need to give him these things repeatedly if you want to boost your relationship with him. Alex loves all universally loved gifts and:
| Gift | How to get |
| Complete Breakfast | Cooked using the following recipe: 1 Fried Egg 1 Milk 1 Hashbrowns 1 Pancakes |
| Jack Be Nimble, Jack Be Thick | Found by digging up artifact spots Purchased from the bookseller from year 3 onwards for 20,000 Gold. (It鈥檚 worth noting that this is by far the most commonly found book in my playthrough, so you should end up with a few dupes of this if you play enough) |
| Salmon Dinner | Cooked using the following recipe: 1 Salmon 1 Amaranth 1 Kale |
