A little about Stardew Valley

Stardew Valley begins when your character receives an unexpected inheritance from their grandfather: an old, run-down farm in the Stardew Valley countryside. Tired of the direction their life has taken, the player leaves their old life behind and moves to Pelican Town to start over. What begins as an attempt to restore an overgrown farm quickly becomes something much bigger as the player gets to know the people who live throughout the valley.


Linus’s Tranquil Existence.

Amidst the colourful tapestry of Stardew Valley’s characters, Linus appears as a distinctive villager who has embraced a life closely intertwined with nature. Living in a modest tent on the mountain north of Pelican Town, Linus often grapples with feelings of being an outsider, yearning for acceptance from the townspeople. Linus is one of the most independent characters in Stardew Valley. He lives in a tent in the mountains above Pelican Town and chooses to live outside conventional society. While some villagers don't understand his lifestyle, Linus is comfortable with himself and has a strong connection to nature.

“You can learn to survive in the wild. I have. I think we all have a hidden urge to return to nature. It’s just a little scary to make the leap.” — Linus.
