Hi anybody:

I am very happy to denote that the Stardew Valley board game is well-nigh to be back in stock. We programme to begin taking orders through the Shopify site on Wednesday (November third) starting at 12 noon PST.

There are a few things to mention:

Shipping in time for Christmas may not be possible. Games are being assembled in Michigan and transported to Florida for fulfillment equally we speak. Our fulfillment company Quartermaster has let us know that these orders should arrive to customers before Christmas, just please be aware that the state of shipping (internationally and domestic) is severely impacted right now by world events. There may exist delays that happen which are out of our control. We'll do everything nosotros can to get your copy to you as chop-chop as possible, but we just want to warn you about this before you lot buy. We cannot predict how long the game will take to achieve you, and it may not arrive before Christmas.

Distribution outside the US. Nosotros did some investigation into how to brand the game available outside of the U.s.. Unfortunately selling and shipping direct is just too complicated at this fourth dimension (mainly due to the complexities of sales taxes). However, this time around nosotros are working with some distributors in Canada , Australia , New Zealand , the U.k. and EU . Copies of Stardew Valley volition exist bachelor in some local stores in those regions. It's not possible for us to keep track of which stores specifically, and then the best way is to contact your local store and ask if they are conveying copies.

Improvements to the game. We spent fourth dimension after the original launch to gather feedback and make some improvements. For case, many people felt that the Mines were too difficult. Subsequently looking more closely, we figured that a number of the Mine Map cards could result in frustrating results frequently, so these were adapted. The difficulty is not much affected, but the chance of getting null for your efforts is greatly reduced.

Likewise, nosotros added an additional component tray to make storage easier and to subtract the time it takes to prepare and put away the game.

The rules and cards have many pocket-sized adjustments to analyze questions that came up, simply pretty much all the rules stayed the same. The only dominion alter we added was to make it so the museum grants a Centre as a reward for donating to it, a minor modify that is represented in the rules and on the lath.

Please notation: Due to a supply shortage issue, some "Angling Bags" will exist black instead of blue.

Hey everyone,

I know you've all been waiting a while for the 1.5 update for Stardew Valley on mobile. While it is underway, it may be a while off all the same. The main reason for this is that I had to get someone new to port the one.5 update to mobile versions of the game, which has caused the mobile update to accept much longer than it originally would have. Finding someone new to do the port took some time, but it was necessary.

I capeesh your trust and patience, and desire to assure you that I'm doing everything inside my power to get the 1.five update out to you all every bit soon as possible.

As many of yous know, for the past couple of weeks in that location has been an event with multiplayer on Mac. The outcome was not a issues in Stardew Valley's code (there hasn't been a Stardew Valley update since early this year, so nothing could accept inverse), only instead was an "authentication" issue having to do with the PC platforms (Steam & GOG). This happened considering of a strange and very specific issue with a recent software update on one of those platforms.

Sorry for whatever inconvenience this has caused.

Hello everyone,

Information technology has come up to my attending that streamers on Twitch and Youtube and elsewhere are uncertain well-nigh what content they are allowed to monetize when information technology comes to streaming Stardew Valley.

My thoughts are very elementary: You can feel free to play Stardew Valley on your streams and videos and too to monetize those streams and videos. That pretty much sums it up.

I want Stardew Valley to bring people together. I don't want anyone to be anxious about playing and sharing footage of the game. Use your best judgement and have fun.

Thanks a agglomeration for playing and supporting Stardew Valley.

Today I'm very excited to denote something special: today we release the official Stardew Valley Lath Game! This is the very first merchandise project where I'm acting as publisher from first to finish.

For more than 2 and a half years I've been working together with board game designer Cole Medeiros to make a board game that captures the essence of Stardew Valley. Information technology has pretty much everything from the video game: villagers, crops, animals, line-fishing, foraging, mining and more. Nosotros worked difficult to brand a board game we think is really fun to play and to await at. I hope you relish it!

About the Game

Stardew Valley: The Lath Game is for ane to 4 players, ages 13 and up. To play through a total twelvemonth in the game (which is the standard experience) information technology takes about 45 minutes per player. This can be adjusted if you lot want a shorter game. The game has a lot to it but there are rules to go far easier or harder depending on your preferences. Merely like the video game, we desire you to be able to make this your own.

Players work together to protect the Valley. If they succeed, information technology means that the Valley is brought back to life, and Joja Corporation is driven from town. The manner you practise this is by completing Grandpa'due south Goals and restoring the Customs Eye. Your goals for each game are randomized, which adds to the game's replayability.

Time is tracked using the Season Deck. Each round a Flavor carte is drawn. This tracks the weeks of the twelvemonth, revealing weather and different kinds of events. Players discuss their plans for the round and place their pawn in the part of the Valley they desire to focus on. Maybe they want to visit the Mine or fish at the Beach, or maybe they spend their time watering crops or tending animals. It'south up to the group to try and work together to coordinate their actions, simply ultimately each role player chooses what they desire to do.

Equally you play, you'll advance your starting tool, proceeds new profession skills, observe items and gather resource. Making friends will unlock unique gifts and reveal the Community Center Bundles. Completing the goals may at first seem very difficult, but equally your abilities grow your farm will become more and more than capable. Don't requite upward!

Complexity

I desire to exist really articulate with anybody that this game was designed to have some depth and complication. It's like shooting fish in a barrel to play once you acquire the rules, merely information technology's not a curt, casual game. Please check out the rulebook to make sure it's a good fit for you and those you like to play board games with!

Some Useful Information

We're setting up a section in the forum for conversation and questions specific to the board game. Delight post questions there and we'll practice our best to reply them.

Videos that walk through setting upwardly the game and how to play will be posted here soon.

Please visit https://shop.stardewvalley.internet for more data, or to purchase a copy of the game.
