Stardew Valley is a simulation role-playing video game where players take over their deceased grandfather's dilapidated farm in a place known as Stardew Valley. The game has received critical acclaim for its charming retro animations, relaxing gameplay, and music. It is an open-ended game where players can build relationships with townspeople, share resources, and cultivate a new life in this award-winning farming RPG. The game has no defined end and players can continue playing beyond three years while their grandfather appears to discuss the progress of their farming life. It has been compared to Animal Crossing for its creativity and choice-making abilities. The game's creator, Eric "ConcernedApe" Barone, was also cited for retaining the freedom that later entries of the Harvest Moon series had lost. The game is available on various platforms, including Steam, Nintendo Switch, and mobile devices.
