According to the official website of Xbox, "Stardew Valley" players will start with an overgrown plot of land, second-hand tools, and just a few coins for purchasing items. It is a country-life role playing video game, which lets players do anything they want with the land they have inherited in it and get to know the local inhabitants of the town.

Players can try out different methods of achieving success in this game. They can try out farming, mining, fishing, foraging, raising animals, and even fight monsters if needed. Making friends with the locals can also help them achieve the success they are looking for and they can even marry one of the locals and have children.
