Stardew Valley is a farming and life simulation RPG created by ConcernedApe. You inherit an overgrown farm and decide how to develop it: grow seasonal crops, raise animals, make artisan goods or spend more time fishing and exploring. Each day has a clock and an energy budget, so expanding the farm also means deciding which chores are worth your time.

Read full overview

Beyond the farm, Pelican Town has residents with individual routines, gift preferences and relationship events. Friendships can lead to romance and marriage with eligible villagers. The mines add resource gathering and combat, while the Community Center gives collected crops, fish and other items a longer-term purpose. Different farm layouts change the space and resources available at the start.

Our coverage begins with a first-spring route for new players and a friendship, dating and marriage guide. These focus on the standard game rather than mods, with practical explanations of daily priorities, heart limits and proposal requirements.
