๐ Quest Guide
Fields of Mistria has four quest types: Story Quests (main progression), Requests (repeatable errands), Heart Quests (character stories), and Festival Quests (seasonal events). This guide covers the main story questline in order, the Town Rank system, and the Request Board โ everything you need to progress through the game.
Quest System Overview
Fields of Mistria has four distinct quest types, each serving a different purpose in your progression. Story Quests are the main progression path โ they unlock new areas, features, and NPCs. Requests are repeatable errands from the Request Board that provide steady income. Heart Quests are personal storylines tied to individual villagers and unlock deeper relationships. Festival Quests are seasonal events that occur on specific dates. Unlike some life sims, quests in Fields of Mistria never expire โ you can always return to them later. However, some quests have timing requirements (specific day, time, or weather) that you must meet to trigger them.

- Requests: Repeatable errands from the Request Board โ never expire, reset weekly.

Request Board: Repeatable Income & Renown
The Request Board is located near the town square and offers repeatable errands from townsfolk. Requests never expire and reset weekly (every Monday). Each request asks for specific items and rewards Tesserae plus Renown. Crown Requests unlock at Sapphire Rank (50) and offer higher rewards for rarer items. Unlike story quests, you can complete multiple requests per day, and the same request can appear multiple times across weeks. Requests are a reliable income source and a steady way to build Town Rank without grinding mines.
- Requests reset every Monday โ check the board weekly.
- Requests never expire โ complete them anytime.
- Crown Requests unlock at Sapphire Rank (50) with higher rewards.
- Requests reward Tesserae + Renown โ good for Town Rank progression.
