How to Use the Alarm Clock

In Story of Seasons: A Wonderful Life, players dedicate their days to working on a farm. One of the key aspects is earning money to enhance and expand their facilities, which requires time and effort. However, managing all of this with limited stamina can be challenging. Thankfully, the Alarm Clock provides a solution by enabling players to control their sleep schedule.

Establishing a daily routine is essential in A Wonderful Life. By utilizing the Alarm Clock, players can effectively manage their energy levels and make the most out of their daylight hours. Now, let's explore how to obtain the Alarm Clock in this game.

How To Get the Alarm Clock in A Wonderful Life Remake

While Van, the traveling salesman, sells most items, players must obtain the Alarm Clock through a different method. In Year Two, when Garrett and his family move into town, the Alarm Clock becomes available. To acquire the Alarm Clock, Garrett will post a trade request on the Bulletin Board, asking for Pickled Veggies.

Pickled Veggies are a type of salad that players can create using a Caroturn, Sweeturn, Turnmato, or Waturnip. The recipe includes special plants called Hybrid Crops. To obtain Hybrid Crops, players must first unlock Vinnie in Spring of Year Two, who is a giant talking plant discovered by Takakura.

Once players reach a sufficient friendship level with Vinnie, they can request him to create Hybrid Crops. To do this, they need to provide Vinnie with two crops, which he will then mix together. The outcome of this process will be a seed for a Hybrid Crop that can be grown during both seasons. For those interested in making Pickled Veggies, below are some of the crop combinations that can be used for this purpose:

Waturnip - Watermelon + Turnip

Turnmato - Turnip + Tomato

Caroturn - Carrot + Turnip

Sweeturn - Sweet Potato + Turnip

Once two of the permitted Hybrid Crops have been gathered, players have the option to prepare them into Pickled Veggies using a stove, sink, or pot located within their kitchen. After obtaining the prepared dish, the last task is to locate Garrett and present him with the pickled vegetables.

Garrett commutes to the city in the early morning and comes back to Forgotten Valley at 9:00 PM. He resides in the townhomes opposite the cafe. Players can easily locate him on their map whenever he is in town.

To give him the Pickled Veggies, simply engage in conversation and mention that it pertains to his request. Once the gift is handed over, he will kindly propose installing his old alarm clock in the player's farm home. Declining this offer will result in missing out on the Alarm Clock opportunity.

How to Use the Alarm Clock

The Alarm Clock serves multiple purposes. Firstly, it allows players to rise early and gain an advantage in completing their tasks. By waking up before 5:00 AM, they may encounter Takakura before he departs for town.

Additionally, the Alarm Clock provides a means of replenishing stamina through daily naps. Unlike other methods that require spending money, this is a cost-free option. Players can easily set the alarm time by interacting with the clock located either next to their bed or in the living room. The left and right bumpers can be used to adjust the alarm hand to the desired time.
