Do these before you decorate
Clear “everyone’s wishes” from the management menu. The facilities they give belong beside tables, because they raise comfort. Send people on outings early. Ingredients, recipes, characters, and gifts are outside. If you have hearts to spare, leave teammates on outing duty.
- Post the wanted posters in the shop and collect sighting notes so the Straw Hats can join.
- Cook new dishes. A new dish opens wishes, and a tasting pays coins.
- Spend coins carefully. Nami’s haggle is once a day and can cut a price in half.
- Leave the outer floor empty so Franky can expand. Keep one tile between tables.
- Read the sea goals before you grind. The story moves when those goals are met.
Use this as a priority list
Wishes, exploration, menu development, and comfort are described by both guides. The one-tile table rule is Game8-only; NanoGames independently describes once-daily half-price spending. None of these sources supplies a guaranteed day-by-day completion schedule.

Questions
Where do new recipes come from?
Outing spots, then a character idea plus a recipe card and ingredients.
Should tables touch?
Game8 says comfort drops if tables touch. Leave one tile.
