Raintear / Raincry Seeds: Store Names & Silver Key

Which name should I look for?

The English v1.0.3 announcement uses Raincry Flower Seeds and Star-Snow Shop. The earlier v1.0.2 note used Raintear Seeds and Stella’s Store. Both notices place the purchase behind a later story unlock associated with the Silver Key map.

This comparison concerns announcement wording. It is not an independently verified item-ID mapping, proof of two different seeds, or evidence that a shop moved. Match your current game language, quest text and shop inventory before spending resources.

Announcement wording side by side

The guide keeps its original address and both search spellings so an older link still leads here. Use the source version, rather than a different spelling alone, to interpret an older walkthrough.

The shop is missing: check progression first

1. Check your game version and the active quest text.
2. Check whether the story has opened the Silver Key map and the relevant shop.
3. When that access is missing, follow the current story objectives instead of repeatedly changing planting assignments.
4. Once the shop is available, compare the seed label with the current inventory.
5. If the expected shop or item is still missing, preserve a save and report the version, language, objective and a shop screenshot.

The announcement does not provide a purchase price, exact unlock day, named dialogue option, stock-refresh timer or growth yield. None is inferred here.

Alchemy access is not the shop unlock

The developer removed the main-story prerequisite from the alchemy unlock. That does not remove the later story requirement for this shop. Read the alchemy unlock guide for that distinction; do not treat access to Freeform Alchemy as proof that every seed seller is already open.

Owning seeds but workers will not plant?

A shop-access question is different from a planting warning. If you already own the seeds, inspect the planting selection in Peoplesprout Management with the Seeds depleted checklist. The assignment shortcut dates to v1.0.1.

A hybrid-seed exchange error is also separate: the developer reports an exchange fix in the later notes. That does not prove a new breeding formula or a guaranteed result. Use your observed costs in the workshop calculator.

v1.0.5: more information in seed shops

Seed purchases now display the associated produce amount. Compare that information in your current shop rather than treating an older screenshot as a fixed yield table. This interface change does not announce a different Raincry seller, price or unlock day.
