Stardew Valleytells the tale of an office worker who has inherited a farm from their late grandfather. After growing weary of their corporate employment, the protagonist heads to Pelican Town and Stardew Valley to revitalize the family farm. The game offers plenty of other things to do as well, including mining, fishing, crafting, and building relationships with the townsfolk, similarly to the originalHarvest Moontitles.

Its regular content updates, including the addition of co-op play with up to three additional farmers has helped to keep the game fresh and interesting as some players devote up to hundreds of hours to the title.
Although Barone continues to devote resources toStardew Valley, it’s not the only project he has in mind. Barone recently revealed that he wants to work onanother game set in theStardew Valleyuniversethat won’t revolve around farming. While much about this proposed game remains unknown, it may provide an interesting window into the world ofStardew Valleyfor players who aren’t interested in farming sims.
