5 Kanoa
Not much is known about the happy-go-lucky fisherman since he's always lazing about his home of Halo Halo (named after the frozen Filipino dessert). His warm personality reflects the hot temperature around him, while his personality is as chill as can be. Kanoa's head is often up in the clouds, and he can be unaware of what's happening around him: including the player's affection. With some time and patience, Kanoa proves himself to be a productive and hard worker when he's not lounging around Halo Halo. He might not sweat the small stuff, but his love for the player is anything but laid-back.

4 Jamil
Like Braden, Jamil loves animals. However, Jamil loves animals so much that he may be oblivious to the player's advances. The key to unlocking Jamil's affection is through his desire to learn more about animals all over the world. Being from the desert land of Pastilla, Jamil is excited to meet animals from around the world. Players should diversify their farm to show Jamil their care about his interests, and soon he'll start caring about the player. Win him over with knowledge of the animal kingdom and players will find themselves with a suitable and compassionate partner.
Jamil has kind blue eyes and chin-length black hair. He wears a long green cloak with ornate golden details on its trim that is tied together by red and blue fabric.
3 Sami
From the reindeer-infested land of Salmiakki, Sami is an ice-cold bachelor with a heart needing to be thawed. With a lot of responsibilities resting on his shoulders, Sami is a hard heart to unfreeze. From leading his village to herding rambunctious reindeer, Sami hardly has the time for love. He's best friends with Kirsi, so getting to know her may help the player understand Sami more. With help and patience from the player, Sami's cold heart will melt when they help him shoulder his responsibilities. Once players prove their affection they'll soon be worthy of this cold leader's warm heart.

2 Tristan
The workaholic bread-maker, Tristan, is a worthy husband for the hard-working farmer. His quiet demeanor can make him awkward at times, but the player will eventually bring out the best in him. Tristan wants to live up to his father's name and bake unforgettable bread for his village and sister, Laura. With the crops in the world diminishing, the glory of Tristan's family bakery is losing its shine. Support Tristan in his love of bread and fight to save his bakery and players will be rewarded with an unforgettable romance. With this incredible baker at the player's side, there aren't any obstacles the two can't overcome.

1 Braden
Hailing from Callison, a small village amongst vibrant green farmland, is none other than Braden. This bachelor is surly and stoic, which may be offputting at first, but that's all a part of his charm. Under his hardened exterior, Braden is a kind and caring man. He fears losing his farm and the animals he loves which causes him stress. Helping Braden take care of his farm is a one-way ticket to taking care of his heart. With time, his walls will break down and players will find themselves with an incredibly caring partner.
Braden has strong broad shoulders covered by a green shirt and a durable brown vest, with belts that go around his waist, making his outfit efficient for carrying all the tools he'd need for farming.
