If you're a couch potato like me during the holidays, then you have found a good game to invest 10 or 24 hours of your vacation time. For me, I have found this highly addicted game called Stardew Valley.
I paid like $20 for the game, and it was well worth the invest. This game has everything: dating/marriage simulator, exploration, farming, city build, tower defense, level up, fighting, shooting, and trading. The sole purpose of this game is to grow crops on your grandfather's farm and get along with the citizens in the nearby town.
I have played through the game a few times, so I will give you 10 tricks and tips to get be successful on the game.
1. Unlock the Community Center and take note of all the crops or resources townsfolk requested. Basically this is your cheat sheet for which crops are worth growing each season and which resources are valuable in the game.
2. Hold off on Getting Married/ Be good friends first. I'm not saying be a player, but I will say keep your options open. Most character have recipes or give good gifts one you reach level 7 friendship. The only character that I befriended that was a waste of time was Maru. I gave her a lot of gifts but she never gave anything back even up to level 10 friendship. I married Emily, but she did not do much as a wife.
3. Use staircases to go deeper into the mines. I was fighting and mining level by level, and I completely forgot that a staircase can take me to the next level.
4. Click on the journal when it's past 2 AM. No joke. You can click on the journal and it will give you an extra 15 minutes in game time to get to your home without the penalty. If you stay out past 2 AM, then you will pass out and will be found by a citizen or JoJo Mart Representative without most of your money and items.
5. Upgrade your equipment in the off seasons when it's not useful. In the fall or summer upgrade your Ax. In the winter upgrade your water can and hoe.
6. Check the bulletin board to gain extra cash and friendship points. Citizens will for extra items that you have or seasonal items you can obtain.
7. Fishing and foraging are your best sources of income - Basically you can fish and get a quick $1000 in a day. Foraging for will berry or items can net good money in pinch. Also, you don't have to wait until the end of the day to put items in the chest for sell. Pierre buy most goods, and Willy will buy most fishing goods.
8. Make Scarecrow ASAP - The crows will eat your seeds without a scarecrow. Note that the scarecrow range is 8 x 8 so make sure you are covered.
9. Make a Silo ASAP and don't cut down grass until the Fall - If you have chickens, ducks or cows, then the animals will eat the grass and you won't have to feed them $50 hay bells every day. Those hay bells will become costly in the winter. I don't know if you're animals die if you don't feed them for a while, but I do know they will not produce product when they're hungry or irritated. Don't forget to feed your animals on rainy or snow days. Also no grass in the winter, so get a Silo asap and start stocking up on hay.
10. Pace yourself - Don't grow too much too soon or raise too many animals. Too many crops to tend to means you have water them everyday and tend to them. Too many animal mean you have to feed all them, and in the winter that will be costly when you run out of hay.
Bonus - Marnie and the Mayor are having an affair. You can collect evidence such as the Mayor's underwear in Marnie's room. It's a little joke developers put in there for gamers who don't pay attention to the items they collect and why its collected
