Grind targets: what the numbers really ask
Every numeric target in the game in one table: 10,000 crops, 1,000 boulders, 500 magatama, the four shipping tiers and the field guide entries.
The long tail is shipping: 10,000 yen is easy, 100,000 is a season, 1,000,000 is the real goal and 10,000,000 yen is where only 1.7% of players sit.
Every numeric target in the game, with the share of Steam players who have hit it. Treat the percentage as a difficulty rating that other people already voted on with their time.

Read the drop-offs
Three cliffs stand out.
- Grass: 3.8%. Cutting 10,000 bushels is not hard, it is invisible. Nobody tracks it, so nobody finishes it. If you want it, cut every patch you pass from day one.
- Shipping: 22.7% to 1.7%. The step from one million to ten million yen is where the game stops being a farm and becomes a business. The four tiers are on the money page.
- Field guide: 3.2% to 0.9%. The last 500 entries cost more than the first 500, because everything left is rare. Start logging early.
The cheap wins
If you want volume on the achievement counter, these are the ones that fall out of normal play: Petting Zoo (500 interactions), Do Process (100 processor uses), Five Pecks of Rice (10,000 yen shipped), Living off the Land (500 forageables), and Yours, Mine, and Ores (1,000 boulders).
The expensive wins
- Barnraiser at 1.2%: 50 structures is a deliberate build-everything project.
- Filthy Rich at 1.7%: 10,000,000 yen shipped.
- Field Guide Grandmaster at 0.9%: the entire guide.
