Walkthrough: Achieving Snowy Weather
- Locate Daisy: Find her near the Miguel District cafe to initiate the conversation regarding the snowman, Puff.
- Track Puff: Follow the objective markers to trigger the initial encounter.
- Nekomaru Ramen Photo: Capture a clear, centered promo image of the restaurant while Puff is present. If the game doesn’t register the shot, adjust your positioning.
- Seafood Shop Logistics: Visit 7 Oceans Seafood, purchase the Truck Key Fob for 30,000 Fons, and unlock the refrigeration vehicle. Snap a photo of Puff atop the truck.
- Delivery Tasks: Successfully complete the three designated city deliveries—Clicky, Panda Hotpot, and Budoriya—then check back with Consuelo.
- Exhibit Photography: At the Gold Apple Collection Hall, inspect the highlighted objects and photograph Puff alongside the ice sculpture.
- Hethereau Skytower: Take the elevator, converse with Puff, and capture a photo featuring him against the city skyline.
- Invoke the Snow: Fast-forward to 10:00 AM the following day using the in-game clock. Visit Caltrop Lake Station, review Mint’s correspondence, and inspect the grass near the water to find traces of Puff. This finalizes the weather unlock.
Pro-tip: If photo objectives remain incomplete, refine your camera angle or move your character to ensure both the subject and background are captured correctly.
