Stardew Valley is an indie game developed by ConcernedApe and published by Chucklefish released in 2016 on PC. It later came out on major consoles such as PlayStation 4, Xbox One and Nintendo Switch, but also on Android and iOS. This extraordinary diffusion combined with the low price, makes it still appreciated all over the world of video games. So let's see five useful tips for those who want to approach the title.
Watch television every morning
The first mistake not to make is not to watch TV as soon as you wake up. Through it in fact, you will always know the weather forecast for the next day (in case of rain, you can avoid watering the fields, for example). In addition to this, theHoroscope will tell you if you are lucky or not (essential for finding bonus items around), you will learn new recipes with the program "The Queen of the sauce”And get important advice on how to cultivate the fields. Watching television must be absolutely the first thing you will do as soon as you wake up, in any season or time of the year.
Don't do too many things together
Stardew Valley while remaining a game with very basic and in some ways primitive graphics, has very rich gameplay. Being a farming game, you will need to get the materials cultivate fields, work in the mine, breed animals e make friends with all the PNGs that make up the inhabitants of the town where you live. During the first year your level will be low and, therefore, try to avoid doing everything that comes to mind. Focus on starting the farm, cultivate according to the seasons and start building a good reputation in the city. Animals and other more advanced things, leave them for later.
Organization is essential
The working day it doesn't last long and you need to organize yourself well. First you work on the farm, only then dedicate yourself to something else. If you let go of the crops you will soon find yourself with empty fields and no crops. Once the crops are settled, you can decide to farm wood by cutting down trees or breaking stones with the pickaxe. When the energy bar is too low, then take a walk around town and talk to all the villagers you meet. Knowing everyone is fundamental to the social aspect of the gameplay. Give gifts at regular intervals e talk to everyone constantly, because from the dialogues you can have a myriad of useful information.
Always look in the garbage cans
There are garbage cans near the houses. Come closer and look inside, if you are lucky you can find really useful items inside of. But be careful: before opening a bin make sure none of the NPCs see you. In that case, the reputation with that character will drop, because begging in Stardew Valley is frowned upon. Don't worry though, try to look in the bins early in the morning or in the evening before going home, when the NPCs have yet to wake up or are mostly at the Saloon.
Bring the Artifacts to the Museum
If worms appear in the ground, hoe and if you're lucky you can find an Artifact. Selling them earns you money, but it's much better to take them to the Museum and donate them to Gunther. This not only makes you well liked by the museum keeper, but it will be useful to you later in the game. obviously the drop of Artifacts is not automatic when you see the worms in the ground, for this reason it is essential to hoe every time you see them appear. The percentage it is higher after rain, so always be careful while walking.
