Gold becomes the first real wall in Heartopia. Outfits, furniture, recipes, tools, and fast progression all depend on how efficiently you can build your early income. This method is designed specifically for new players and turns low-level farming, fishing, and cooking into a high-value gold loop that can generate thousands of coins in a short play session.
Hobbies You Need Before Starting
You only need three hobbies unlocked.
• Gardening – Level 2
• Fishing – Level 2
• Cooking – Level 1
This setup gives you access to crops, fishing spots, and jam recipes, which are the foundation of this gold route.
Step 1 – High Value Crop Planting
Go to your house and buy the most expensive seeds you can currently plant.
Plant all available plots.
Water them every time you return home.
These crops stack passive gold while you are farming elsewhere.
Step 2 – Fruit Farming Route
Outside your home, farm every fruit bush you see:
• Apples
• Mandarins
• Raspberries
• Blueberries
Craft fishing bait and repair kits while moving between bushes.
The more bait you carry, the longer your gold run lasts without stopping.
Step 3 – Unlock Cooking and Convert Fruits to Jam
Choose Cooking as your next hobby and level it to at least Level 1.
Cook every fruit into jam:
• Apple Jam
• Mandarin Jam
• Raspberry Jam
• Blueberry Jam
Jam sells between 160 and 300 gold per unit, turning low-effort fruit routes into serious income.
Do not eat your cooked food during gold runs.
Step 4 – Fishing Route for Expensive Fish
Head to the recommended fishing spot shown in the video.
Fish the area normally first, then switch to bait fishing.
This spot consistently gives 1★ to 3★ fish, which are all high value early-game sellers.
If you start getting sardines, move to a nearby spot.
Fish respawns quickly, allowing continuous loops.
Step 5 – Sell Everything in One Burst
Once your inventory is full:
Sell all jam, fish, and crops to Albert Jr.
A clean 15-minute run can generate around 8,000 gold, and runs with full crop harvests can push 10,000–12,000 gold in a single session.
This loop stacks three systems at once:
• Passive crop profit
• Zero-risk jam conversion
• High-value fishing
Every action either generates gold directly or creates materials that convert into gold through cooking.
Once this route becomes muscle memory, gold stops being a bottleneck and turns into a constant background flow while you play.
