Give Gifts to Improve Relationships

Socializing, getting to know, and improving relationships with the different characters in Rigbarth is a large part of the gameplay experience.

While speaking to each of the characters daily slightly improves your bond with them, giving their favorite items as gifts can give a larger boost in your relationship. Giving gifts on their birthdays also allows for a bigger friendship bonus!

In turn, avoid giving characters items they dislike to avoid lowering your friendship with them.
