A player recently shared details of a painful in-game mistake on social media, prompting sympathy from the long-suffering community.
Although it has a reputation for being a relaxing game, and arguably sparked the cozy game golden age we now find ourselves in, isn't always easy.
Time is strictly limited, both by day and by season, and it's all too easy to make a fatal mistake that costs you thousands of g and several one-of-a-kind items.
This one player's error wasn't quite so drastic, but it did result in a devastating loss. Reddit user LittleDJS1234 commiserated with the community after throwing their one and only Ancient Fruit into a Seed Maker, hoping to generate more Ancient Seeds.
However, it instead spat out a handful of Mixed Seeds, a relatively low-value item that spawns a random crop based on when and where they're planted.
