Thanks to this, players have an opportunity to find someone they think is suitable depending on their interests and personality, but it can be hard to narrow downwho is the best romance option. There are several opinions on who is the best, even with it being in Early Access, and some agree that Scott is a great candidate. He is an archeologist that works at the museum, and is often seen at the Caverns. Players will get to know him well asthey work towards expanding the museum, and will soon learn that he is a city boy at heart with a passion of artifacts. He came to Coral Island to start a new life as he was previously known as a playboy and wanted to get away from his old life.
