How to Complete the Moonlight Peaks Demo Wine Quest

The Moonlight Peaks demo orients you through a single clear objective: turn Orlock's borrowed blood grape seeds into red wine and deliver the bottle. Along the way you learn tilling, watering, tool wheel basics, and keg crafting. This written guide complements the video below; steps reflect demo builds and may shift slightly before launch.

Accept the quest from Orlock

Orlock appears near your homestead, lends grape seeds, and asks for red wine in exchange. The quest logs in your journal. If you need farming tips, Victor in the crypt can explain fundamentals — see NPC profiles.

Plant and water blood grapes

1. Equip your shovel and till a small plot near the cottage.
2. Open inventory and plant blood grape seeds on tilled soil.
3. Switch to the watering can and water every planted tile each night.
4. Wait roughly five in-game nights for grapes to mature — use nights to fish, forage, or explore town if the gate opens.
5. Harvest grapes when ready.

Do not over-expand the field before you can water everything — core advice on the farming overview.

Build a keg and ferment wine

Gather wood and fiber from clearing debris and using the scythe on weeds. Craft a keg at your workbench when materials meet recipe requirements. Place the keg, load grapes, select red wine output, and wait for fermentation to complete across additional nights. Quality stars may depend on grape grade in your build.

Deliver to Orlock

Bring the finished wine to Orlock to complete the demo arc. Celebrate, then use remaining demo time to test social systems, potion brewing, and controls for a wishlist decision — our demo guide lists six evaluation points.
