This page uses only details preserved in the collected research files. Information that those sources do not confirm is marked To be confirmed.

How gift preferences work
Each character has separate loved, liked, disliked, and hated categories, and the Preferences tab records items you have already tested. The material also describes universally liked items, but its two sources report different exact point rewards. Use the reaction category as verified guidance; the precise universal-gift point value is To be confirmed.
Who the gift material covers
The romance list names Alex, Lunelle, Neona, Pastelle, Serena, Solara, Stella, Zerine, Aurelis, Delphin, Graminova, Loren, Sylvain, Youfang, and Zephyria. The wider gift source also includes non-romance residents such as Bruce and Charlene. These names come directly from the collected pages; this guide does not add unlisted characters or guess at missing preferences.
Build affection without wasting items
Talk to the target resident as part of the daily route, then use a known loved or liked item only after checking Preferences. Bulletin Board requests, returning lost items, and quests involving that resident provide other documented ways to progress. Tools and some other objects cannot be given, so do not assume every inventory item is eligible.
What remains uncertain
Some source tables are long scraped lists with duplicated labels, image filenames, and navigation text, so those lines were not treated as reliable gift matches. A gift should only be presented as confirmed when the item and resident relationship are unambiguous in the source. Any exact value or preference not preserved clearly in the collected material is To be confirmed.
Starsand Island Romance Options
The women are Alex, Lunelle, Neona, Pastelle, Serena, Solara, Stella, and Zerine. The men are Aurelis, Delphin, Graminova, Loren, Sylvain, Youfang, and Zephyria. No unlisted name has been added.
Dialogue displays hearts, while the Social app shows detailed progress and gift Preferences. Bond marks romanceable residents, and Locate helps find them. The fifth heart level unlocks the Move In request for eligible candidates.
Move In does not happen automatically, so several relationships can be progressed first. The source says Youfang could not Move In at its time of writing. Whether a later build changed that is To be confirmed.

Starsand Island Guide: A Practical Starting Route
Hopeland is the overgrown plot left by your grandfather, with a one-room cabin and an outdoor worktable at the start. The opening quest unlocks Build Mode and the Island Life app, which later supports expanding the property. Basic controls appear during your first steps, and most keyboard shortcuts can be reassigned in Settings.
