What is Stardew Valley?
Stardew Valley is a beloved farming simulation game where players cultivate crops, raise animals, mine for resources, and forge friendships with the townsfolk. Developed by ConcernedApe, it offers a relaxing yet deeply engaging experience, combining farming, exploration, and storytelling.
Gameplay Overview
Upon arrival in Pelican Town, players customize their character and take over a neglected farm. The land is cluttered with rocks, weeds, and trees—clearing them is the first step toward building a thriving homestead.
