I’ve always made guide videos for people who already know their way around the valley, not realizing that I’ve neglected to make a video for the absolute beginners, so I’m finally going to fix that! Just in case you want to watch the video, but don’t need help with controls or something, I made a lot of chapters so you can skip to whichever part you like!

Sections:
0:00 – Intro
0:35 – Starting a New Farm
2:25 – Controls
3:59 – Getting Started on Your Farm
5:22 – All About Energy
7:22 – Time, Weather, and Seasons
9:18 – A Tour of the Valley
19:00 – The Pause Menu
25:58 – How Do I Unlock it, and What is it Good For?
32:43 – A Few Extra Tips

Here’s the lofi Stardew Valley music I use a lot:

  1. This video was awesome and very useful. Gonna play first time with my wife and I know i'll be revisiting this video at least 10 times lol.

  2. If any beginners read this, to expand a little on the Museum Collection (in the Library). Mostly everything can be donated as soon as you get 1 of them, but I would recommend hanging onto these ones UNTIL you have at least 2 of them: Dinosaur Egg, Prismatic Shard, and Diamond (optional). I'll explain each (and I'll try to keep it as spoiler free as I can in case any want to figure these out themselves!)

  3. The guide is Okay basically but a lot of this just happens anyways so more detailed guide should have been posted on this like for example how to unlock and what unlocks the things mostly needed for the community center that is used to advance the most in the game. WHATEVER.

  4. I really need help. I can't get the geode at the blacksmith transaction to work. I haven't expanded my inventory yet (not enough money). When I click on it, nothing happens. What am I doing wrong?

  5. I think the most valuable thing I heard from this video is that everything repeats and there’s no need to feel rushed 😭 I was totally overwhelmed by the short days when I first picked up stardew valley, and since I’ve played after watching this video, I’ve been completely obsessed. Thank you!!!
