Idyll has 110 dig sites, all on the continent, and every one of them pays the same way: a fixed set of Aniipods, Growth Buds and Mineral Sand, plus one elemental shard. Opened together, they add up to 291 Aniipods, 306 Growth Buds and 1,058 Mineral Sand. Below: the ten sets a dig site can hold, then every region with its dig sites pinned and numbered, and a link that walks you through them on the interactive map.
What a dig site gives
The game has ten reward sets, one per kind of mound, and each dig site holds one of them, always the same. What the set gives never depends on the area’s level. Every set pays exactly one shard, and a shard’s own text says what it is for: “Nurture at a Bloom to attract Water-type Aniimo.” (the same line for every element). The reward items:

Good to know
- Where the game files them. The item sources of the Aniipod, the Growth Bud and the Mineral Sand name the same place: “World Exploration – Dirt Mound”, with the tip “Explore Idyll and open dirt mounds.”
- All on the continent. None on Whisperwake Isles, none in Astra.
- 2 are underground: the map shows them under its Underground chip. Every region card below flags them.
- The level does not scale the reward. A dig site’s set is fixed by its kind of mound, whatever the level of the area around it.
Region by region
Regions go by level. Each card pins every dig site of the region with the shard it gives, numbered in the order of its Walk link, which draws the same route on the interactive map. There, the Dig sites layer has one filter per shard, to show only the mounds that give the one you need.
