Hobello: how to romance them in Shakespeare's Code

Verdict: the cheapest route, with one big bill

Hobello, the toad companion, costs 450 diamonds, the lowest of the five love interests in Shakespeare's Code. Abraham is next at 643, and Ralph tops the list at 1345. The route is short, 8 steps, and the one to watch is "Cast a spell for him." at 151.

Every step

• Season 1, Episode 10: "Deepen the kiss." — 17. The route starts here.
• Season 2, Episode 3: "We'll handle them together!" — 50.
• Season 2, Episode 4: "Asked the toad for help." — 71.
• Season 2, Episode 8: "Approach Hobello" — 21.
• Season 2, Episode 10: "Tease Abraham." — 77.
• Season 3, Episode 3: "Choose the toad." — free.
• Season 3, Episode 4: "Cast a spell for him." — 151.
• Season 3, Episode 10: "I looked at my companion." — 63.

How I'd play it

Everything except Season 3, Episode 4 is under 80, so I'd pay as I go and keep only that episode on a separate save slot for Diamond Rush. That takes the route from 450 down to 299 out of pocket. Don't miss "Choose the toad." in Episode 3: it's free and it's the step right before the big one. For a longer route, see Abraham.
