Stardew Valley
Description
You've inherited your grandfather's old farm plot in Stardew Valley. Armed with hand-me-down tools and a few coins, you set out to begin your new life. Can you learn to live off the land and turn these overgrown fields into a thriving home? It won't be easy. Ever since Joja Corporation came to town, the old ways of life have all but disappeared. The community center, once the town's most vibrant hub of activity, now lies in shambles. But the valley seems full of opportunity. With a little dedication, you might just be the one to restore Stardew Valley to greatness!
Features
- Turn your overgrown field into a lively farm! Raise animals, grow crops, start an orchard, craft useful machines, and more! You'll have plenty of space to create the farm of your dreams.
- 4 Player Farming! Invite 1-3 players to join you in the valley online! Players can work together to build a thriving farm, share resources, and improve the local community. As more hands are better than one, players have the option to scale profit margin on produce sold for a more challenging experience.
- Improve your skills over time. As you make your way from a struggling greenhorn to a master farmer, you'll level up in 5 different areas: farming, mining, combat, fishing, and foraging. As you progress, you'll learn new cooking and crafting recipes, unlock new areas to explore, and customize your skills by choosing from a variety of professions.
- Become part of the local community. With over 30 unique characters living in Stardew Valley, you won't have a problem finding new friends! Each person has their own daily schedule, birthday, unique mini-cutscenes, and new things to say throughout the week and year. As you make friends with them, they will open up to you, ask you for help with their personal troubles, or tell you their secrets! Take part in seasonal festivals such as the luau, haunted maze, and feast of the winter star.
- Explore a vast, mysterious cave. As you travel deeper underground, you'll encounter new and dangerous monsters, powerful weapons, new environments, valuable gemstones, raw materials for crafting and upgrading tools, and mysteries to be uncovered.
- Breathe new life into the valley. Since JojaMart opened, the old way of life in Stardew Valley has changed. Much of the town's infrastructure has fallen into disrepair. Help restore Stardew Valley to it's former glory by repairing the old community center, or take the alternate route and join forces with Joja Corporation.
- Court and marry a partner to share your life on the farm with. There are 12 available bachelors and bachelorettes to woo, each with unique character progression cutscenes. Once married, your partner will live on the farm with you. Who knows, maybe you'll have kids and start a family?
- Spend a relaxing afternoon at one of the local fishing spots. The waters are teeming with seasonal varieties of delicious fish. Craft bait, bobbers, and crab pots to help you in your journey toward catching every fish and becoming a local legend!
- Donate artifacts and minerals to the local museum.
- Cook delicious meals and craft useful items to help you out. With over 100 cooking and crafting recipes, you'll have a wide variety of items to create. Some dishes you cook will even give you temporary boosts to skills, running speed, or combat prowess. Craft useful objects like scarecrows, oil makers, furnaces, or even the rare and expensive crystalarium.
- Customize the appearance of your character and house. With hundreds of decorative items to choose from, you'll have no trouble creating the home of your dreams!
- Xbox controller support (with rumble)! (Keyboard still required for text input)
- Over two hours of original music.

Far more than just a farming game, this one-man labor of love is filled with seemingly endless content and heart.

Harvest Moon 3.0
played 33h straight, so much love in this game; then played Harvest Moon on Snes to look for similarities; Stardew Vallew 100% Harvest Moon; but with tight ass controls and a perfect modern interface, buy this game, this game is love, this game is life.

Wonderful time sink
So I don't write reviews typically. It's not that the games I happen to play aren't good, it's just that most aren't worth taking time out of my day for. This one is the exception. This seemingly simple game wraps you around its little finger and refuses to let you go. Because it's that good. I haven't really played the Harvest Moon series, so I can't compare the two. What I CAN say is that this game is wonderful. Yeah you're a farmer, but it's so much more. The characters feel alive, you care for them. You care that this is your Grandfather's farm you're running, and you want to make it the best darn place you can so that you can be a contributing member of the sleepy little town that lies in the beautiful Stardew Valley. Bored of farming? No problem, there's other stuff to be done around the town. Help out the villagers? You can do that. Go exploring the local caves and battle various little beasties? Sure. Go mining for that valuable ore to craft yourself a new beehive, or teleportation totem, or sprinkler? Yup. Want to go fishing? Sure, go right ahead. And don't forgot there are different fish at different times of day, that come out in certain types of weather, that only hang around during certain seasons. This simple little game is expansive. There' so much to do, and each new place you or person you talk to is infused with their own little touch of magic (metaphorically). This all from one guy who is still adding content. Big update coming out soon. New people to date, new farm layouts, possibly other new stuff. So if you enjoy a game that feels vibrant and alive and makes you smile a little each time you play, buy this game. I did. At full price (this from someone who ALWAYS gets games only when they're on sale). Because I wasn't willing to wait until after I'd had my first taste.

BEST management game of 2016
I own the game on Steam, but I have to review it on here as well... Clearly I never would have expected a SNES era looking game to actually be so much fun... It's really awesome once you go exploring the surrounding areas. The farming is cool too.. It just needs Farming Sim's tractors :D That's my only complaint sometimes it takes a LONG time to farm stuff, but overall it's a deep game so many things going on.. I have yet to learn how to build up relationships with the villagers though... I want to have a BIG family in the game... I have upgraded my house to the biggest size possible.. THAT took forever, had to explore the caves for a while boore I had everything required for the Mega house... If you don't own this game WHAT are you waiting for? $15 at reqular price IS NOT bad... I would easily buy it again on here if I wanted to really do something crazy...

Best Game
This is the perfect game for relaxing, despite the fact that it's totally addicting and life consuming. I've sunk at least 80 hours into this game and still feel that there is a lot to explore and complete. I love the nods to Harvest Moon 64 (one of my favorite games of all time), and I love the original aspects of it as well. Altogether, fantastic game. Unless these types of games aren't your cup of tea, I don't see how you could give this less than five stars.
