I bought my friend the base game for her birthday but she is having trouble running it. She said she had to restart the game six times in an hour. When I play on Switch, I find I have to restart the game maybe once per hour to get ahead of bugs that crop up, but for her it's borderline unplayable.

She did download the game to her SD card, which may be a contributing factor to the games lag. Before I advise her to delete the game and re-download it onto the Switch's base storage, does anyone know that this is the problem?

Also open to any advice on making the game more playable on Switch 1 for her. Thanks!

I have unlocked The Plains, The Wastes, The Borderlands, The Grasslands, and The Grove. I have upgraded my hourglass to level 3. What is the benefit of upgrading the hourglass more at this point? Do I get more Mist while timebending? Unsure what to do :)

edit: Hourglass is at level 3, not 2, so edited to show that
