Stardew Valley

Did you know that agriculture is the main source of livelihood for about 58% of our country’s population? Whether or not you’re interested in this field, it is always good to have some knowledge about it. Stardew Valley is a farming simulation role-playing game in which the player assumes the role of a character who takes over his/her grandfather’s farm to get away from the hustle and bustle of an office job.

You become part of the town’s life and engage in activities such as clearing the land, planting and tending the crops, raising livestock, and engaging in social activities. The game does not follow a fixed storyline and progresses based on the player’s actions.

You can choose to complete various objectives you come across. Besides, there is much more to the game than merely farming. Players also need to maintain a good relationship with the people of the town and can get to know other characters by interacting with them. It has been released for macOS, Linux, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation Vita, iOS, and Android.
