| Type | Hat |
| Location | Volcano Caldera |
This nameless hat is the quietest trophy in the game. It shows the grinning animal from the ConcernedApe logo that appears when the game starts, so the farmer ends up wearing the developer's own calling card. Nothing in a shop or a festival stall leads to it. A red monkey sitting in the lava at the top of the Volcano Caldera hands it over, and only to a farmer who has already reached 100% Perfection. That single condition makes it the clearest sign that a save has nothing left undone.
Location
Perfection is the whole game measured at once. Shipping every item counts for the largest slice, and the rest comes from maxing friendship with every villager, buying and placing the Gold Clock, finishing all the Adventurer's Guild monster eradication goals, collecting every Stardrop, cooking every recipe, crafting every item apart from the Wedding Ring, catching every fish, pushing all five skills to level ten, gathering all the Golden Walnuts on Ginger Island and raising all four Obelisks. Fizz, a Joja employee, will sell a Perfection Waiver for 500,000g if the last percent or two refuses to come.
Once the tracker reads 100%, sleep and read the confirmation the next morning, then sail from Willy's back room to Ginger Island. The volcano stands at the north end of the island, entered through a wide cave on its southern side. Water poured from a watering can hardens the lava into a path. The caldera is the top floor, the same level that holds the Forge, and the monkey waits in the lava pool on the left. One interaction is all it takes.
Effect
Worn, the hat covers the whole head like a mask and turns the farmer into the little creature from the start-up screen. It reads as a joke rather than a costume piece, which is the point: the people who see it know what it took. It suits a farmer who has stopped working for money and started dressing for show. Any hat can also be set on a pet by holding it and clicking, so the logo face can sit on a cat or a dog instead.
Notes
The hat arrives once per save file, and in multiplayer once per farmhand, so a cabin full of players each get their own rather than fighting over one. Losing it used to be permanent. A friend now lives in the Secret Woods who will track down a one-of-a-kind item that cannot be found again, and a replacement for this hat costs 10,000g there.
Perfection is also an achievement in its own right, and it only unlocks after every other achievement has been earned, so the monkey and the achievement tend to land in the same week. Reaching the caldera is worth the trip anyway, because the Forge on that floor is where a Galaxy Sword, three Galaxy Souls and a pile of Cinder Shards become the Infinity Blade.
