Pixie
Pixies are tiny beings made of mostly light that can help the player with a variety of tasks on their farm and around it. Pixies can be attracted by placing offerings in Pixie Shrines, put into a Pixie Bottle and then placed on different objects to harvest resources or improve machine yields or released with the Pixie Guardian in a Pixie Cavern. Pixies have different uses depending on their color.
Fin's early game quest Pixie in a Bottle and a poster in Dawn's Potion Shop provide a short in-game explanation on pixies and their types. The player will also receive a Small Pixie Bottle with one green and one blue pixies from Fin for completing his quest.

Pixie Bottles are tools that are used for collecting, storing, and moving pixies. Two sizes of pixie bottles are available in the game: a Small Bottle that can store two pixies and a Large Bottle that can store six. Both bottles are craftable via the Crafting menu.
Colors and uses
Four types of pixies exist in the game: Blue, Green, Red, and Rainbow. Different colored pixies can be bound to different types of objects, except rainbow pixies that can be bound to any object and will complete any task with increased effectiveness. Green and Blue pixies can be bound to harvestable objects to collect their resources every day without destroying the objects they are bound to, and Red pixies can be bound to machines to increase their yields or to Silk Farms or Bee Hives to increase their production speed.
Every pixie placed on a natural object or a machine counts towards the player's boundable pixie limit. Once that limit is reached, no new pixies can be placed; the player can only free a spot by putting any of their bound pixies into a tapper or a bottle and releasing them. The player starts the game with the limit of nine; that limit can be increased by eating Pixie Friendship cards and wearing jewelry that has this bonus.
Green and blue pixies will deposit the resources they harvest into the Pixie Deposit Chest every night. The chest is located next to the Town Pixie Shrine between Cid's Store and Freya's. If the chest gets full, some harvested items may be discarded. The amount of resources collected can be increased by eating Pixie Synergy cards and wearing equipment that has this bonus.
If the player destroys or picks up an object that has a pixie bound to it, that pixie will be lost. To avoid losing the pixie, the player has to collect it into a bottle first.
Blue Pixies
Blue Pixies can be placed on any rocks, ore deposits, quartz and shard nodes, and strange stones to harvest their contents every day without breaking the rocks or nodes.
- Ore rocks and pure ore deposits yield their corresponding ore, with pure ore deposits producing slightly more ore than ore rocks.
- Coal rocks yield Coal.
- Quartz rocks yield Quartz.
- A shard node yields a random shard every day (Arcane, Ion, or Phantom); all shards harvested in the span of the same day by one pixie are of the same type.
- A round strange stone yields a random geode every day (Unordinary, Peculiar, Rare, or Extraordinary).
A Rainbow Pixie placed on any of these objects will harvest twice as much of the same resource.
Green Pixies
Green Pixies can be placed on fully grown trees, bushes, or mushroom patches to harvest their contents every day without destroying the plants. Most objects can have only one pixie concurrently bounded to it.
- Fully grown trees yield Wood, with the exception of Orb Trees that yield Dark Wood and Wurple Trees that yield White Wood.
- The Great Dream Tree near Dawn's house yields Dark Wood; up to three pixies can be placed on that tree.
- The Great Wisdom Tree to the south of the town yields White Wood; up to three pixies can be placed on that tree as well.
- Fully grown patches of grass yield Grass Fibre.
- Everberry and Yummyberry bushes yield Everberries and Yummyberries respectively, even out of season.
- Mushroom patches yield mushrooms of their type. Pixies can only be bounded to fully grown mushroom patches; a mushroom patch that has a pixie bound to it will not disappear when its season ends.
A Rainbow Pixie placed on any of these objects will harvest twice as much of the same resource.
Red Pixies
Red Pixies can be placed on most machines the player owns. Pixies can only be placed or removed when a machine is idle. A machine that has a pixie bound to it will produce twice or thrice its usual output for red and rainbow pixies respectively. Pixies have no effect on production time.
Pixies do not produce additional items when bounded to Silk Farms and Bee Hives, instead they reduce the production time by 50% and 80% for red and rainbow pixies respectively.
Attracting Pixies
Pixies do not spawn in the wild naturally and need to be attracted at Pixie Shrines instead. The earliest available shrine is the Town Pixie Shrine located between Cid's Store and Freya's. The shrine is in disrepair at the start of the game, and the player needs to repair it by contributing forty Wood, three Quartz, and ten Stone to it. Placeable Pixie Shrines can be crafted using nine Copper Bars, three Silk Ropes, three White Wood, and two Honeycombs; however, they have 10% less success rate of attracting pixies than the Town Shrine for most offerings (except special potions and Pixiecap).
To attract a pixie, the player needs to place an offering into a shrine first. The acceptable offerings are:
- All food and vegetable crops from plants and fruit trees
- All mushrooms, both the ones found on the ground and on tree stumps
- All raw animal produce, including eggs (regular and golden), milk, wool, truffles dug out by Spudges and candy produced by Ponyas
- Processed Honey and any type of Pink Honey
- Butter and Avocado Butter (that is also considered animal produce for Pixie Shrine purposes)
- Everberry Juice and its variations
The chance to get a pixie with the chosen offering is rolled and saved overnight; if it succeeds, a pixie of a randomly chosen color (and in some rare instances a rainbow pixie) will be found perched on that shrine, ready to be collected into a Pixie Bottle. The chances of success heavily depend on the offering the player uses:
Everberry Juice is guaranteed to attract a regular non-rainbow pixie and has a very small chance (~1%) of attracting a rainbow pixie instead.
Splendid Everberry Juice is guaranteed to attract a regular pixie and has a 20% chance to attract a rainbow pixie instead. The chance increases to 30% if the player's Luck procs.
Super Everberry Juice always attracts rainbow pixies.
Pixiecap is the only non-potion offering that has a very high chance of attracting a pixie: 5% for a rainbow and 74% for a random non-rainbow one. The chances increase even further if the player's Luck procs: 10% for a rainbow and 84% for a regular pixie.- For all other offerings, the sell price is used to determine the chance of attracting a pixie. The item's sell price is divided by two. If the resulting value is less than 9 or more than 40, it is increased to 9 and reduced to 40 respectively; if the value is between 9 and 40, it is used as is instead. Then a bonus chance is added to that value if it applies, and the resulting number is used as a percentage to roll for a random pixie.
- Mushrooms (both regular and tree mushrooms, with the exception of truffles that are considered animal produce) have a +5% bonus chance of attracting a pixie compared to crops, fruit, and animal produce.
- Using these offerings at the Town Shrine grants +10% success chance compared to using placeable Pixie Shrines.
- The player gets an additional +5% bonus chance if their Luck procs.
- Every regular offering has a very small chance (~1%) of attracting a rainbow pixie.
The offering placed into a shrine always disappears overnight. If the shrine is empty the next day, a new offering can be placed there immediately; if the previous day's offering has successfully attracted a pixie, that pixie needs to placed into a Pixie Bottle to free up the space for another offering.
