Stardew Valley
Best Steam Winter Sale 2017 Deals
Starting us off is Stardew Valley, which originally released for PC just last year, and quickly made its way to consoles. It also released on Switch earlier this year. If, for some reason, you haven’t played Stardew Valley yet, now’s the perfect time to do so. Developed solely by Eric Barone (though he now has support from Chucklefish), the game takes many cues from the Harvest Moon series and its older entries.
Players will create a male or female farmer who tends to their crops and livestock, and also socializes with the townsfolk to form genuine bonds and maybe even a romantic relationship. The whole game is all about saving this cute little town from the evil corporation Joja Mart, but the gameplay mechanics are a lot deeper than you might initially think.
Stardew Valley features all the usual Harvest Moon elements like farming, fishing, and foraging. But it also features actual combat where you delve into a mine and fight monsters for rare materials. There’s so much to do in this game, and so many secrets to uncover. It’s the perfect game to play during the winter, where you’re all huddled up at home, plugging away at this cozy and inviting little farming sim.
