11Overview22Loren runs the Chrono Arcade northeast of central Starsand Town, near the Community Center. He is a relatively recent arrival to Starsand Island, having relocated specifically to find clean air for his younger sister, Momo, who was diagnosed with a congenital lung condition. Using part of his savings from a previous career in online gaming, he established the arcade to make ends meet while quietly working on his own indie game projects.44Loren is one of 15 romanceable characters. His laid-back, low-pressure personality makes him a good match for players who want an independent partner and a fun-focused relationship. See the Relationship System article for how Affection Points and heart levels work.77Profile99DetailInfoBirthdayFall 6Height178 cmWeight68 kgOccupationArcade ManagerRomanceableYesFamilyOlder brother and guardian of MomoLocationChrono Arcade1111Personality1212Loren is cheerful and laid-back, prioritizing fun over profit. He does not care much about whether the arcade is turning a profit; what matters to him is that everyone is having a good time. He maintains a polite, almost careful distance around strangers, but beneath that reserved exterior he is a gentle protector at heart.1414He can seem distant at first because of his long list of responsibilities: running the arcade, caring for Momo, and developing his indie video game project. You might not be high on his priority list initially. Once you build a relationship with him, though, he turns out to be a supportive and easygoing partner who always puts family first.1616Background1818At age 18, Loren became the sole guardian of his two-year-old sister Momo after she was diagnosed with a congenital lung condition. Knowing the city air would only make things worse, Loren made a difficult decision at the peak of his career: he retired from professional online gaming at twenty and relocated to the clean, fresh air of Starsand Island.2020Loren was famously skilled in a popular online game, but he avoids displaying this talent publicly on the island. He poured his savings into opening Chrono Arcade to support himself and Momo. Since the arcade opened, Momo appears happier, and the business has boomed with islanders and visitors alike.2222Outside of managing the arcade, Loren spends time fixing up machines with Zerine and working on his indie game. His days follow a comfortable routine of shopping at Zerine's General Store, dining at Aureleaf Kitchen, and picking up sugar paintings for Momo. During winter, he dedicates extra free time to Momo, including pet shop visits and sharing sweets together on a park bench.2424Location and Schedule2626Loren is usually at the Chrono Arcade counter during shop hours (08:00 to 22:00). If he is not at the counter, check around the arcade machines. He is often tinkering with them. His bedroom is located above the Chrono Arcade, but you need at least 3 hearts before you can enter.2828Time / ConditionActivityLocation8:00 AM - 10:00 PMRunning the arcade, manning the counterChrono ArcadeSunny AfternoonsShopping, dining, buying sugar paintings for MomoGeneral Store, Aureleaf KitchenWinter Free TimeVisiting pet shop with Momo, sharing sweetsPet shop, park benchOff-HoursTinkering with arcade machines, working on indie gameChrono Arcade3030To track Loren at any time, open your phone's Social app and use the Locate or Follow feature to find his current position.3131Chrono Arcade3333The Chrono Arcade is a hangout where you can play classic arcade games, earn tokens, and exchange them for gachapon prizes.

He is one of the only NPCs who hates Moonflower, a gift that nearly every other character enjoys. He also dislikes raw Copper ore, even though he loves Copper Ingots.

Avoid flowers entirely with Loren; stick to metals, coffee, and cooked food.5353Romance5555Loren's romance is low-pressure and fun-focused.
