Stardew is a game I keep finding myself coming back to. The dev continues to deliver great, hefty updates full of new content to explore. And the mod-ability is practically endless. Words cannot do this game justice, and this will likely be lost in the sea of recommendations, but if you want a quaint, fun, adorable little game to dump time into, look no further.

Really can't recommend this enough. I have +700 hours across all devices (got it on pc, switch, and mobile) and I still find things to do. It's SO fun and immersive, you will never grow bored of it. Only "downside" is you'll start playing and suddenly 10 hours will go by without you realizing lol!!

Sept. 2024

Fun and peaceful game. It never gets boring with all the additions. I am 58 and have tried to play other games but often get stressed out but I feel quite calm and relaxed playing Stardew Valley, it is better than all the others! Thank you.
