Inspect the season type
Valley rules can vary, including group collection goals and special map objectives. Read the current season explanation before using fuel.
Plan a short route
Favor nearby buildings and objectives rather than crossing the map for every attractive request. Efficient movement preserves fuel for later opportunities.
Balance token colors
A reward may require several token types. Check the shop early so your route does not produce a large surplus of one color while missing another.
Support the group goal
In cooperative seasons, individual progress and map-wide progress interact. Deliver shared objectives when practical, but keep enough time to claim your chosen reward.
Field note
Choose the reward first, then let its token requirements guide movement and tasks.
