Treasure Chests

Types of Treasure Chests

Starsand Island has dozens of treasure chests scattered across the overworld and inside the Moonlit Forest. Many chests contain blueprints that cannot be obtained any other way. If you skip chest hunting, you will miss furniture blueprints, clothing blueprints, hairstyles, and cooking recipes. Chests do not respawn after being opened, with the exception of relationship-locked bedroom chests which reappear weekly.

Type	Description
Overworld chests	Found across Starsand Island in houses, businesses, gardens, and along roads. Contain blueprints, recipes, resources, and consumables. There are roughly 40 of these.
Relationship-locked chests	Two chests per NPC bedroom. One holds exclusive decor items. The other refreshes weekly with items you have collected. Both require Level 3 Affection.

Treasure Map Chests

Treasure Maps are rare drops from mining rocks and mineral deposits. When you obtain one, equip it from your inventory. An arrow indicator appears on screen pointing toward the buried chest. Follow the arrow until you reach the dig spot, then interact with the ground to dig up the chest.

Treasure Map Chests contain randomized loot including raw materials like Iron, Coal, and Stone, as well as crafted materials. One confirmed example from the Dreamfall Garden area in the Moonlit Forest yielded a Flawed Chest x1 and Iron x1.

Tips

Chests that contain blueprints or recipes are the highest priority since those items cannot be obtained from any other source.
Check behind buildings, under bridges, on elevated terrain, and near landmarks like piers and gazebos. Many chests are placed just out of sight.
Secret chests give refined materials (ingots, planks, bricks) and large coin rewards, making them some of the most valuable chests on the island.
Relationship-locked bedroom chests reset every week, so visit your favorite NPCs' bedrooms regularly for free items.
In the Moonlit Forest, explore off the main path to find Vine Chests. Several are hidden behind boulders or beneath large mushrooms.
Keep any Treasure Maps you find while mining. The buried chests are easy to miss if you do not equip the map right away.
