The story of Fantasy Life i: The Girl Who Steals Time is huge and as you progress you unlock new things like Fort Gardhart, and more resources that you can use to upgrade merchants, Strangelings, armor, and skill trees.

As you progress, Marco will discuss how he needs upgrade to his shop so we can open up new slots at the Shop which means you can buy more items. More options, bigger inventory, who doesn’t like that?

This entire process is called Marco’s 1-Star Shop rating request in Fantasy Life i: The Girl Who Steals Time.

Marco’s 1-Star Shop Rating Request Walkthrough

So the first thing you need to do is upgrade / expand Guild Office and only then speak with Marco about his request to expand the shop. There are 5 materials you need to complete Marco’s 1-Star Shop Rating Request:

  • Mushroom Quiche (Good or Excellent Quality)
  • Cherry Lumber
  • Iron Ingot
  • HP Potion (Good or Excellent Quality)
  • Wool

The best way to get higher quality items is to master the crafting mini-game but also make sure to match or exceed the Recommended Skill Level.

Higher Quality Mushroom Quiche Recipe

Mushroom Quiche in Fantasy Life i

Get the Cook Life and gather the following ingredients to start cooking Mushroom Quiche:

When you have all the cooking ingredients the next step is to make sure you use good equipment or hire a Buddy to boost your chances of getting a higher quality Mushroom Quiche.

The required items you need are available at Marco’s Shop or Faraway Island’s Materials Shop. Alternately, you can mine Iron Ore Deposit in The Depths and other areas to get Faraway Iron.

How to Get Cherry Lumber in Fantasy Life i

Cherry Lumber in Fantasy Life i

Start with upgrading Carpentry Life from Fledgling to Apprentice to unlock the Cherry Lumber crafting recipe. To get 1x Cherry Lumber you need 3x Cherry Logs in Fantasy Life i.

Head to the forest to cut down trees to get Cherry Logs or spend Dosh to purchase them from the shops. Look for Cherry Logs in Faraway Island, or Pettlewing Woods in Ginormosia. And if you are in Lulab Forest, I suggest going to Southeastern Valley of Spirits to face Pseudo Cherry enemy that drops the items you need.

Higher Quality HP Potion Recipe
