Stardew Valley Reviews

Stardew Valley is the cozy farming sim that somehow turns 'just one more day' into hundreds of hours through seasonal farming, farm animals, relationships, mining, co-op, skill trees, and endless other systems. The substantial content expansions over the years, including Ginger Island and mastery systems, keep it fresh with huge player numbers year-round, though simplistic combat mechanics and repetitive tasks can feel tedious. Complex mechanics might overwhelm casual and new players initially. Great value at full price, amazing deal at frequent sales.

Stardew Valley is so relaxing, and there are so many things to accomplish to move forward in the story line. You don't have to do everything, just do what you enjoy. It's a beautiful thing :)

This is such an awesome game to play solo or with friends. There's something for everyone; fighting, romance, farming, fishing, bullying the mayor, raising animals, and giving magical creatures random junk to fix transportation for you! XD

Stardew valley got me through high school, covid, college, I made 3 portrait mods for it, started a new game at least 5 times, I have twice as many hours on the mobile version, it is one of the games of all time

Honestly thought this was gonna be a chill farming game that like (No offense) girls liked to play but, damn was I wrong it's a great game and its even better with Friends!

calming, fun, and completely your own adventure

When you wanna play animal crossing but also hay day but also minecraft but also a dating sim but also an idle game but also...

I started playing Stardew Valley on March 1, 2017. Over the years, I’ve taken breaks, started new farms, explored different styles of playing. And no matter how long I’ve been away, coming back always feels like returning to something familiar and safe. The fact that ConcernedApe created all of this by himself still amazes me. You can feel the heart in every detail. I’ve completed everything the game has to offer. Every achievement, every little secret. I even reached perfection. But somehow, it still doesn’t feel over. I still find myself logging in just to hear the music or wander through the valley for a while. Now I get to share it with my partner. We play multiplayer together and even enjoy the board game. It’s become part of our lives. This game didn’t just entertain me. It stayed with me during some quiet nights, long weekends, and even stressful days. It gave me a space to breathe, to slow down, and to feel connected to something simple and good. LONG STORY SHORT If you're thinking about playing Stardew Valley, just do it! Whether you're into farming, story, collecting, exploring, or simply looking for something peaceful and warm, this game has a way of finding its place in your heart and 'f you ever have any questions about the game, I’d be happy to help! Thank you, ConcernedApe!

Best game ever, I love it! Lots of replayability, and although I had a hard time learning the fishing game, I did get the hang of it eventually! Love the artwork.

A Cozy Escape for Two Playing Stardew Valley with my boyfriend has been one of the most unexpectedly wonderful experiences we’ve shared together. What started as a simple farming game turned into hours of laughter, teamwork, and surprisingly heartfelt moments. From building our dream farm together to running through the mines with him by my side (me usually running from monsters while he bravely fought them off), every moment in the game felt like a little adventure. We picked crops, raised animals, and even argued (lovingly!) over how to organise the chests—somehow, even that was fun. The best part? Watching our virtual farm grow felt like watching a part of our relationship grow too. We celebrated our first in-game festival together, planted our favourite crops side by side, and even got married in-game (who says digital rings don’t count?). Stardew Valley has this quiet charm that makes you want to slow down, breathe, and appreciate the little things—and doing that with someone you love makes it even better. It’s more than a game; it’s a cozy little world we built together. If you’re looking for something sweet to share with your partner, this game is a perfect choice. Just be warned: you might start arguing over whose turn it is to water the crops
