What would Morris listen to in his office while working on paperwork, or on his commute to the Pelican Town JojaMart?


Stardew Valley Character Morris Expressions

Stardew Valley is full of characters who make Pelican Town feel like more than just a collection of shops and houses. Some are deeply connected to the community, while others arrive with very different ideas about what the town should become. Morris, the manager of JojaMart, is firmly in the latter camp.


What Is Stardew Valley?

Stardew Valley is a charming video game that provides an escape into simplicity. Created by Eric Barone, also known as ConcernedApe, the game allows players to inherit their grandfather's farm and transform neglected areas into flourishing homesteads. This indie gem is praised for its captivating visuals, immersive gameplay, and soundtrack.


The game is a testament to dedication and success. Barone's four-year solo development of Stardew Valley is as delightful as the game's narrative. With self-taught skills in music, art, programming, and design, Barone's commitment led to the game's PC release in 2016, which quickly becoming a success and selling over one million copies in two months.


The Role of Joja Mart and Morris in Stardew Valley


A company called Joja Corporation makes things difficult for the players in the game. Modernization and profit-driven motives are trying to change the traditional farming life the players should follow.


The presence of Joja Corp creates a conflict that goes beyond farming, fishing, and building relationships. Players must decide whether to resist the corporation by fixing the broken-down community center or join JojaMart and become a part of the corporation. This decision affects the game and encourages players to consider what values are important to them in their virtual farming journey.

What would Morris listen to while running JojaMart, studying sales numbers, promoting Joja products and trying to win over Pelican Town?


Morris would probably have a playlist built around ambition, productivity and corporate success. Forget acoustic guitars and songs about wandering through the forest. This is a man who would happily listen to something with a strong beat while checking spreadsheets and planning his next marketing campaign.


“Money” By Pink Floyd


“Rockstar” By Nickelback


“On Top of The World” By Imagine Dragons


“How Bad Can I Be?” By The Once-ler, From the Lorax (2012)


“I Gotta Feeling” By the Black-Eyed Peas


What do you think?


This playlist is ultimately our interpretation, and we'd love to hear yours. Did we get it right, or would you give Morris a completely different soundtrack?
