The developer's FAQ distinguishes an initial story progression gate from later season changes. This checklist is intentionally not a universal 'change season on day X' rule: the source ties access to quest completion and requirements, not a real-world schedule.
- Record platform and the version shown by the game's title/menu screen; use the developer's current update history for that platform.
- Open the quest log and look for Seasons Greetings. If it is incomplete, follow its displayed objectives rather than searching for a repeat-ritual option.
- If the quest is complete, visit the Wellspring and inspect the available interaction. The FAQ says further season rituals become available there once the requirements for the season have been completed.
- List any visible unmet requirement exactly as displayed. Do not spend a guessed ingredient or change a setting based only on an old community post.
- Before confirming a transition, review active timed requests and seasonal crops/forage in your own journal; the source does not promise that unfinished requests are preserved.
- If the expected interaction is missing, compare the platform/build and quest state with the official FAQ and latest patch notes; only then prepare a redacted report.
| Observed state | Decision | Evidence boundary |
|---|---|---|
| Seasons Greetings still active | Complete its visible objectives first | FAQ names it as the gate for later repeat rituals |
| Quest complete, Wellspring option visible | Read the displayed season requirements before confirming | No universal day-of-season trigger is stated |
| Quest complete, option missing | Record build and exact quest/UI state; compare current platform notes | A Steam update date does not prove console rollout |
| A request might expire | Check its in-game deadline before transitioning | FAQ does not promise request carry-over |

Make a pre-transition note
The accompanying browser tool only keeps your typed checklist in this page state. It cannot see quests, inventory, or backups.
- Enter platform/build and the current season shown in-game.
- Copy the exact remaining quest requirement and note active requests you want to finish.
- Save the note locally by copying it before leaving; confirm the actual Wellspring prompt in-game.
Before you play
- I checked the quest log rather than assuming time alone changes the season.
- I verified Seasons Greetings completion and read the Wellspring prompt.
- I checked active requests and platform/build before confirming.
Frequently asked questions
Does the season automatically change after a fixed number of days?
The cited developer FAQ describes ritual-based season changes; it does not support an automatic fixed-day transition.
When do repeat rituals unlock?
The developer says after completing Seasons Greetings, further Wellspring rituals are available when the requirements for the season are complete.
Can this page read my quest state?
No. It only formats the information you enter; it cannot inspect your save.
