How to Take Care of Non-Sleeping Pals

How to Take Care of Non-Sleeping Pals
Feed Your Pals Pet Your Pals Build Relaxation Structures

Feed Your Pals

It's crucial to remember that Pals who don't sleep won't receive the usual benefits associated with it, rendering them more vulnerable to hunger, depression, and sickness.

Always make sure that your Feed Box is stocked with plenty of foods, particularly foods that make Pal sanity last longer, and those that contain high nutritional value to lessen the chances of your Pals being hungry and exhausted.

Best Foods to Put in Feed Box

Pet Your Pals

When your Pals appear unwilling to work, a simple act like petting them can quickly put them back on track.

Petting demonstrates care and concern, prompting Pals to reciprocate by returning to their working area with renewed motivation.
