Which version of Stardew Valley should you get?

There's 3 main ports of Stardew Valley, and they all differ a bit. What are those differences, and which one should you get? I can't go over every single detail in a short, but hopefully this gives you a good idea of what to expect!

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

Chair skip is possible on console. Use the right joystick to move the cursor and place the chair.

[Mortennif]

It is also worth saying you can save/exit in the middle of the day on mobile

[Iplayceleste]

On Switch you can use the left joystick as a mouse and A to click, so I’m pretty sure chair skips are possible

You don't necessarily have to auto attack on mobile you can choose your controls and there are a few different options

mobile has been a night saver for my graveyard shift and we are finally caught up with 1.5! (quality bobbers still not functional tho >.>)

Fun fact: if you propose to any of the marriage candidates on George's birthday, or the day after, it will set your wedding day to be the day after the spirits eve festival. Every character has a unique dialog if you speak to them during the festival. For example, Penny usually says she's entranced by the cauldron and just can't seem to look away. But if you propose and talk to her the night before your wedding, at the spirits eve festival she'll say she is entranced by the cauldron but... "oh. You look beautiful tonight." Or something like that. Sam, who usually complains about a dead end will say he was wondering when you'd show up and sebastian will comment about wanting one of the skeletons on the farm. I haven't married any of the other characters yet, so I don't know what they'll say. But it's kinda fun ❤ little Easter egg I guess you'd call it. And I don't know if anyone's covered it in a video before?! But yeah :D

Year three on mobile until I got it on Steam, here's my input:
1. You can turn autoattacking off, though I still recommend it.
2. There's no multiplayer so....
3. Your tools auto switch (like, let's say you have your axe selected, it will automatically switch to your pickaxe, assuming you have it. I think it switches back to your previous after the swing is done.) I dearly miss this feature.... 4. You can also navigate easier because you can just press the ground and it will take you there, but you can also hold down and it will move, if you prefer that.
5. Zooming is better because you can have whatever level of zoom you want, it's not limited to multiples of 25.
6. You can make the hot bare bigger and smaller.
7. The slots at the casino in the desert is visually broken, but works just fine.
8. Slingshot is weird idk. Because of mobile I have vowed to not even use it on PC.
9. Do you like Journey of the Prairie King? Don't play it on mobile. The controls are inverted and it has bad controls even beside that.

Bonus: Kindles can share games so like, my sister bought Stardew Valley on her Kindle and so I have it for free!

One issue with mobile is that you can't do multi-player

Relaxing on switch though. Just the fact of laying in bed.

The first time I played Stardew Valley, it was on mobile. At the Apple Store, they had their newest iPhones on display, and they had various apps on them that you could use to test out the phone. I chose Stardew Valley. I didn’t get the phone; I just like going into the Apple Store and using their devices (and the apps installed on them) for free. (It’s like a playground in there!) However, I _did_ buy Stardew Valley on Steam when I got home.

This is unrelated to Stardew, but during a separate visit to the Apple Store, I went to YouTube on one of the computers, put on Never Gonna Give You Up, turned the volume up to maximum, and promptly left the store. In that moment, I knew how it felt to walk away from an explosion without looking back.

I started playing stardew on my pc, but then decided to get it on my switch as well because I’m a more casual gamer and it’s nice to be able to be anywhere I like while playing!

I've played Xbox, mobile, and PC. I gotta say mobile was probably my favorite because I had it on my tablet and I could play it offline, and it saves in the middle of the day without having to figure out how to mod. I currently play on PC though because that tablet crapped out

The chair glitch works on console and the item ID glitch used to work on console too but they patched it from working. I literally bought it on pc like 30 mins ago and I’m gonna do some mods I’m super hyped :)

[Lkolo]

I've absolutely loved playing stardew on the switch

[avoidedcastle]

I haven't played on xbox for awhile, but I thought the chair glitch worked as long as you used the cursor

[yuuko]

I'm playing Stardew Valley on a steam deck and it's an amazing experience imo, I'm enjoying every minute in the game

[WoodlandWhispers]

I would say that general rule of thumb for any game is looking at what console it was released on originally. That console will probably end up being what it runs best on, and also what console will get updates sooner. But games that are widely spread to different consoles on release might require some trying out to see what you like the most. Also on most of pc games you can mod 😈😈😈. It’s all what you enjoy the most and how you like to play in the end though ❤

I bought a switch recently and have been enjoying it on there

[aldrianazzam]

I played on mobile and honestly i think stardew valley it self without mods was already amazing

[totothepotato]

You can chair skip on switch tho and I found a tree pause time saving glitch on it
