As the Livabality of your house increases, so does Kasuga's health. This allows you to keep Kasuga healthy and more durable against enemies. This also ensures that Kasuga will be in shape for the next day to accomplish tasks and gather resources.

Earn Dokobucks

Earn Dokobucks by taking on Dondoko Dailies and Suggestion Box Requests. Dondoko Dailies are missions that update each day while Suggestion Box Requests are quick missions where you need to fulfill certain requests.

Dokobucks can also be converted to money you can use back in Honolulu. You can convert your Dokubucks by interacting with Dolphine.

Craft Furnishing from DIY Projects

The materials you collect around Dondoko can be used to create various DIY furnishing. As you create more furniture, you get building experience that improves your building talent. The items you make can be placed all over the island and can help increase your Popularity.

Purchase Upgrades and Items at the Shop

If you're looking to upgrade your tools, you can talk to Kenzo at Matayoshiya as he can upgrade them up to four times. Additionally, if you wish to improve your Livability by expanding your house or by purchasing additional lodgings, Kenzo can help with these expansions as well.
