Stardew Valley gift guide: the best gifts for every villager

A wedding in Stardew Valley.

The residents of Pelican Town are friendly enough when you begin a new farming adventure in Stardew Valley, but you need to do some work to really earn their affection.

You have an individual affection level with each that can be raised primarily in two ways: doing quests for them and giving them gifts. The latter option is far faster and more efficient, but also riskier. Unlike some other games, each character in Stardew Valley has gifts they like and love but also feel nothing for as well as dislike or hate. Giving a bad gift to a character you're hoping to romance will only set you back. Let's open our journals and make sure we know the best gifts for each villager in town.

The best games like Animal Crossing

Animal Crossing: New Horizons' laid-back gameplay has taken the world by storm and shows no sign of slowing down. There's never been a better time to stay inside and enjoy the leisurely island lifestyle -- and people are loving what the title has to offer. But once you've burned through your first 40 hours, New Horizons is best played in short bursts. Most people will log in for a few minutes each day, see what's happening on the island, finish their daily tasks, and quickly log out. While mods can add more variety, sometimes you need a fresh take to really scratch that itch. None of the following suggestions are identical to New Horizons, but they all offer a unique combination of crafting, exploring, and chatting with your NPC neighbors that New Horizons fans are bound to enjoy.
