Guide to the easiest gift to get for each NPC to quickly max their friendship. I don’t have all of the gifts for each NPC unlocked, but these are what I used to max out my friendships. If anyone can confirm any of the asterisk items, I would be grateful!
Jake
Favorites:
Corn
Ginseng
Cow Milk*
*I don’t have this one gifted to him to know for sure, but judging by the silhouette I would say Cow Milk.
Garrick
Favorites:
Tomato
Grape
Orange*
*I don’t have this one unlocked, but I know he’s into fruits and that’s one he asks for large quantities of. As well as the shape matches.
Nellie
Favorites:
Eggs
Wool*
Cow Milk*
*Ellie is the animal girl, so judging by the shapes and her preferences, I’d say Cow Milk and Wool are her other two, but eggs were the cheapest and easiest option for me to get first.
Oscar
Favorites:
Carp
Sardine
Herring*
*This one isn’t unlocked in my screenshot because I hadn’t caught a herring until after I three hearted him, but when I went to give him one his reaction was that he liked it a lot.
Harvey
Favorites:
Iron Ore
Silver Ore
Gold Ore
George
Favorite:
Sand
Salt
Driftwood
George loves anything from the beach.
Clara
Favorites:
Apple
Strawberry
Grape
Calvin
Favorites:
Scrap Metal
Sand*
Wool*
*If I could get someone to confirm, that would be awesome, but I think by the shapes these are the most accurate.
Anatolo
Favorites:
Ginseng
Wild Herbs*
Cows Milk*
*I didn’t really socialize with this character much, so if anyone can confirm it’s these two then I would be so thankful.
Ayumi
Favorites:
Gold Ore
Silver Ore
Iron Ore*
*She seems to have same interests as Harvey, but I’m not sure on the last one. I do think it’s Iron, but if someone could confirm!
