Haha no way, I thought Krobus was the mysterious character — time for me to get finding the secret notes!
This was so helpful! You didn’t waste any time in the intro and I really appreciate that!
How do you get the like like and subscribed animation that you have halfway through the video?
Eep, I saw Krobus in winter but missed out on finding him in year 1 winter (I was too focused on finishing a quest during that time haha). And now it's spring 😞 Is it possible to still find him and get the magnifying glass now that it's a different season?
THANK YOU I couldn't figure out note 19 for the longest time
With the giant crops it isn’t actually 100% I’ve had a lot of them and only around 6 of them have dropped notes
Anybody know who Marlon's daughter is?
really good video <33
Yesterday I was chopping a tree trunk next to the water and I saw a note fall into the freaking water. 😳 I tried to fish for it, but no go. And I'd been standing to the side of the trunk, so the note shouldn't've fallen in that direction!! 🙄
I have the magnifying glass but I can't open the note. how-do-you-do that?
What do you do if you didnt find him on year 1
What happens if your in years 3 ??!! I didn’t know I had to follow him smh.
Do you have to be in the skull caverns in order to get note 10
1 thing.where do i find note 16???
