Are you looking forward to a 100% Stardew Valley achievements completion on Steam? You can finish each of them without spending thousands of hours playing versus veterans. Read this complete and comprehensive guide to know more!
Stardew Valley is more than exploration and transition from modern life into a countryside one. Aside from planting crops and growing the farm, you can feel more thrilling action by completing a set of milestones. And the best part: you’ll get awesome rewards and bragging rights.
If you’re playing the game on Steam, there are 40 achievements to finish. The difficulty will differ from each task but will be enjoyable if you love this pixelated masterpiece. However, the downside of completing every achievement lies in your strategies, and failing to plan may lead to endless confusion.
From A-Z, we’ve listed every in-game and Steam goal that you can start. We’ll include the best tips to progress faster while maintaining your happiness and enthusiasm with Stardew Valley!
1. A Big Help
Some villagers in the town might need a reliable helping hand for small tasks. You can start doing side quests by collecting or delivering items in exchange for gold and friendship! Make sure to finish it before the time frame ends.
If you complete 40 of them, Lewis will send you 2500g and unlock the Chicken Mask from the Hat Mouse. Tip: Visit the “Help Wanted” board every day!
2. A Complete Collection
Gunther’s Local Museum and Library are large enough to fit valuable relics and minerals from Stardew Valley. However, you’ll need to fill all 95 donation spaces to complete the achievement. Here’s a complete list of all minerals and artifacts you can start finding:
Artifacts | Gems and Minerals |
Amphibian Fossil | Earth Crystal |
Anchor | Fire Quartz |
Ancient Doll | Frozen Tear |
Ancient Drum | Quartz |
Ancient Seed | Amethyst |
Ancient Sword | Aquamarine |

Artifacts hide beneath Artifact Spots or cracked open from geodes. You can also fish them from treasure chests.
On the other hand, getting gems is easy since you can find them from nodes. You can find ordinary minerals in caves, but it’s nothing in numbers versus geodes. Finishing this achievement will need lots of breakable rocks, so use bombs!
After completion, you’ll unlock a Cowboy Hat.
3. A New Friend
Reaching a five-heart friendship with any NPC is your goal to complete “A New Friend”. Giving Pam a Parsnip or Beer is the best option as both items are accessible for a cheap cost, even if you’re starting.
For the special reward, you may now buy a Butterfly Bow from the Abandoned House.
4. Artisan
It’s challenging to unlock crafting recipes in Stardew Valley, but if you’re scaling and using resources for making 30 different items, you’ll get the Artisan achievement.
If you’re a beginner, consider crafting less resource-demanding items. You’ll unlock the Trucker Hat after completion.
5. Best Friends
In this task, you’ll need to get a 10-heart friendship with someone. Try Pam and keep giving her gifts twice every week if you don’t have one yet.
As a reward, you’ll unlock the Mouse Ears for 1000g.
6. Cliques
The Cliques achievement is all about befriending four people at a 5-heart level. It’d be easy after knowing every villager’s favorites, and once successful, you’ll unlock the Tiara.
7. Cook
Preparing meals in Stardew Valley is less demanding if you hoard seasonal crops and forages. Moreover, you can use them to finish this one of the simplest in-game achievements in less than a month (season). But to do this, you’ll need a kitchen from an upgraded farmhouse or a Cookout Kit.
Also, you need to watch the Queen of Sauce on your TV to get recipes or befriend every NPC.
Delicate Bow will be available for purchase after you cook ten different recipes!
8. Cowpoke
With this straightforward achievement, you need to amass 50000g to unlock a Lucky Bow.
9. Craft Master
As new Stardew Valley updates roll, the Craft Master progress will reset because of new items. It’s time to complete every in-game craftable to unlock a purchasable Gnome’s Cap and save you from hassle! Here’s a helpful table of items, sources, and crafting ingredients:

10. D.I.Y.
Unlike the Craft Master, you’ll only have to craft 15 different items with D.I.Y. It’s doable in the first season, making its counterpart one of the most challenging achievements. In return, you’ll get Daisy for 1000g.
11. Fector’s Challenge
Journey of the Prairie King is one of two hardcore arcade games in Stardew Valley. It could be fun, but there’s an achievement for keeping alive until you defeat Fector – the final boss. Speaking of which, ConcernedApe will never adjust the mini-game’s difficulty since it’ll be unfair for players who spent hours practicing.
With the arcade game harder than Junimo Kart, you won’t finish it in one sitting. However, you can follow these tips to increase your odds of getting the Fector’s Challenge achievement:
Don’t Collect Extra Lives
There’s no sense collecting extra life if you’re trying to get a perfect, zero-death walkthrough. Instead, you may want to loot other valuable drops from enemies.
Make Strategic Choices
Between Coffee and Shotgun, which will you use? Should you blast your way with a weapon upgrade or flee while killing all enemies? How about inventory rooms for quick convenience?
Every choice in Journey of the Prairie King matters as it dictates whether or not you’ll survive waves. Assess your gameplay situation fast before your enemies get you. The same goes for spending game-changing credits for upgrades.
Stay at the Center
Enemies come from almost every direction. Try to remain calm while shooting them at the map’s center. Better play safe than aggressive, or you’ll lose the chance.
Take Cover!
Fences and stones exist for a reason, which means a situation between life and death. While you can hug walls much as possible, you can also eliminate your enemies little by little.
Take Advantage of Diagonals
Most mobs in Journey of the Prairie King move either vertically or horizontally. Try moving in diagonals as your advantage, but eliminate monsters copying your movement pattern for safety.
Coins Matter
As enemies become progressively stronger, you’ll always need extra firepower for survival. Slaying opponents may sometimes drop coins you can collect. However, please don’t sacrifice your head for it, or your chances of completing Fector’s Challenge might go away!
12. Fisherman
If you love catching fish and have the time, it’s possible to complete this task within a season! There are 11 available varieties during Spring, but you can reel in four more from the Mines and Calico Desert. However, it’ll be a tougher challenge as unlocking two different areas needs planning.
Nonetheless, you’ll get the Sou’wester as a reward.
13. Full House
With this achievement, the goal is simple: marry someone and have two kids. Planning to speed it up? Check this gift guide, sleep earlier than your spouse, and always agree to have a baby. Make sure to upgrade your house as well for your offspring’s rest.
14. Full Shipment
There are countless items in Stardew Valley that you’ll have to ship each of them at one point. It’s Full Shipment – one of the hardest achievements to add to your Steam profile. Completing it during your first year is impossible. However, if you’re speedrunning the game, consider this helpful table of items for guidance:

Completing this difficult achievement will unlock two purchasable items: Archer’s Cap and Chef Hat.
17. Greenhorn
Once you earn your first 15000g, you’ll unlock the achievement and a Good Ol’ Cap.
18. Homesteader
This challenge is easy: gather 150000g in total, and you’ll find yourself a Cool Cap for 1000g.
19. Joja Co. Member of the Year
When doing fixes around Pelican Town, you can choose between Community Center Bundles or the JojaMart Community Development Form. Most Stardew Valley players prefer helping Junimos over Morris because of the storyline. However, there’s an achievement in siding with the company but for a price.
Becoming a member needs an upfront 5000g payment to access the form. After that, you’ll get the following repairs with their prices:
Developments | Price |
Bus Stop | 40000g |
Greenhouse | 35000g |
Minecarts | 15000g |
Panning | 20000g |
Quarry Bridge | 25000g |
Since the development form needs a huge sum, consider farming Starfruits after unlocking the Bus Stop. Moreover, you can start profiting from Fairy Rose Honey for 680g. Bee Houses produce the sweet syrup every four days, and the profit you’ll get makes a difference.
20. Legend
Earning 10000000g in Stardew Valley is not an easy achievement to reach. What does it take to achieve that sum in one year? Aging wines, selling diamonds, taking advantage of Starfruits and Pineapples, and farming honey.
Grinding hard for those numbers will take years! However, you can start automating by using Iridium Sprinklers and Junimo Huts. Make sure to include nozzles and enrichers to have a bigger sprinkling radius. But the most optimal farmland layout is the Standard one. Otherwise, you’ll have to use non-plant methods to earn.
Your reward: a badass Sombrero.
21. Living Large
The Living Large milestone will appear after completing the 2nd farmhouse upgrade. It’ll cost you 50000g and 150 pieces of Hardwood before Robin starts construction.
If you can get Hardwood quickly from the Secret Woods, it might be grindy. Consider adding the Lumberjack profession for an extra drop from chopping regular trees.
Completing this task will unlock the Hunter’s Cap.
22. Local Legend
Here’s an understatement: restoring the Community Center to its former glory is easier than turning it into a Joja Warehouse. Most players are afraid of dumping gold to Morris, missing the convenience. However, it’s understandable for some to take the challenge.
In this achievement, you need to deliver specific items in a ‘bundle’, and you’ll get generous gifts in exchange. The reward is an attractive Stardew Hero Trophy, but let’s get into the bundles first. These are:
- Spring Foraging
- Summer Foraging
- Fall Foraging
- Winter Foraging
- Construction
- Exotic Foraging
- Spring Crops
- Summer Crops
- Fall Crops
- Quality Crops
- Animal
- Artisan
- River Fish

- Chef’s
- Dye
- Field Research
- Fodder
- Enchanter’s
- 2500
- 5000
- 10000
- 25000
23. Master Angler
Multiple locations, 83 different fishes – can you catch them all? If it’s reeling in each of them, talk about the hardest in-game achievement. When fishing, you’ll need the skills (in Stardew Valley and real world), luck, and patience. Completing this achievement in a year is impossible, but we can speed up things.
But first, make sure to have the best equipment before going to the waters. Bring baits, dressed spinners, and trap bobbers for the best result. You may also decide what tackles to use depending on your goal.
Don’t forget to memorize their behavior in the mini-game. These are:
- Smooth – less sudden movements, easiest to catch.
- Sinker – quickly accelerates below the fishing bar.
- Floater – quickly accelerates above the fishing bar.
- Dart – a mix of sinker and floater making them more difficult to catch.
- Mixed – uses all behaviors throughout the catch.
Here’s a table of references for all fishes in Stardew Valley, where to catch them, and when they’re available:

Aside from normal and legendaries, catching Seaweed and Green and White Algae counts to the achievement progress. Also, crabpotting is a major factor, so here’s a complete table on luring the rest and where to place the pots:
Fish | Location |
Clam | Ocean |
Cockle | Ocean |
Crab | Ocean |
Crayfish | Freshwater |
Lobster | Ocean |
Mussel | Ocean |
Oyster | Ocean |
Periwinkle | Freshwater |
Shrimp | Ocean |
Snail | Freshwater |
Completing the Master Angler will unlock the Eye Patch. You’ll also receive a Stardrop from Willy!
24. Master of the Five Ways
Whether you’re farming, fishing, mining, foraging, or fighting monsters, you earn experience points. It’s not visible in-game, but you’ll see a level-up prompt once you progress, every time you wake up.
The trick is simple: don’t stop grinding. If you unlock something new, use that advantage to gain more EXP! For example, if you see gold nodes inside the Mines – don’t hesitate to break them. It’ll give you more mining EXP versus lower-tier ores. The logic also applies to all Stardew Valley skills.
25. Millionaire
As another ‘earning gold’ achievement in Stardew Valley, focus on automation and efficiency (with Sprinklers and Junimo Huts). You’ll unlock the Millionaire along with a Bowler Hat after amassing a hefty 1000000g in total.
26. Monoculture
Many beginning or intermediate players lose the momentum of completing Monoculture. It might be confusing, but it’s as simple as shipping 300 of one crop.
Avoid donating your most valuable hard work. Instead, focus on crops with extra yields and only need one seed throughout the season. Plants such as Blueberries, Cranberries, or Tomato will do for starters. However, it’s best to reproduce Coffee plants as their drops are four or more beans.
For the reward, you’ll get a Cowgal Hat.
27. Mother Catch
Here’s an easier fishing achievement to finish where it doesn’t matter if you catch 100 Sardines or Halibut. It’ll count if it’s fresh and slimy, and you’ll unlock the Watermelon Band.
28. Moving Up
Buying the first farmhouse upgrade from Robin at 10000g and 450 pieces of wood will unlock the Moving Up achievement. Tropiclip will also be available for purchase at the Abandoned House!
29. Mystery of the Stardrops
Stardrops are the rarest item in Stardew Valley for a reason. Consuming it will add 34 to your maximum energy bar, and getting all will double the initial 270 value. However, the hardest part is finding every Stardrop since it’s scattered across the game.
In total, you can find seven of the rare fruit, and here’s how:
Stardew Valley Fair
A vendor sells a Stardrop for 2000 Star Tokens at the Town Square entrance. You’ll need to spend time playing slingshots or fishing to get a decent reward. Moreover, you can obtain 1000 tokens for placing first in the Fair.
You may gamble at the Spinning Wheel and pick green for a higher winning probability if you’re feeling lucky!
Level 100 Mines
Descending below the ground takes time and equipment. Upgrade your tools first and find a better weapon to traverse faster. Along the way, you’ll need to restore health and energy so bring food items. Staircases are optional, but bombs are the best option for finding stairs.
Spouse Relationship
Even after marriage, you’ll need to retain a decent heart level with your partner. At 12.5, your husband/wife will give you a Stardrop. This cutscene will also trigger with Krobus as a roommate.
Krobus’ Shop
Speaking of the friendly shadow person, Krobus will sell the mysterious fruit for 20000g in the Sewers.
Old Master Cannoli
See the statue near the Pond? That’s Old Master Cannoli. Offering him a Sweet Gem Berry will reward you with a Stardrop.
Catch Every Fish
After completing the Master Angler achievement, Willy will send you a letter with a Stardrop.
Museum Donations
In exchange for 95 items, Gunther will reward you with the final piece to complete the Mystery of the Stardrops.
30. Networking
Getting the Networking achievement is as easy as reaching five hearts with ten people. You’ll unlock the Santa Hat upon completion.
31. Ol’ Mariner
Another repetitive achievement with a simple task: catch 24 different fishes. Official Cap will be added to the Hat Mouse’s inventory after successful completion.
32. Polyculture
In this milestone, you’ll need to ship at least 15 of all seasonal crops in Stardew Valley. Placing Ancient Fruits, Sweet Gem Berries, and Flowers aren’t necessary, but here’s a complete list to get the achievement:
- Amaranth
- Artichoke
- Beet
- Blueberry
- Bok Choy
- Cauliflower
- Coffee Bean
- Corn
- Cranberries
- Eggplant
- Garlic
- Grape
- Green Bean
- Hops
- Hot Pepper
- Kale
- Melon
- Parsnip
- Potato
- Pumpkin
- Radish
- Red Cabbage
- Rhubarb
- Starfruit
- Strawberry
- Tomato
- Wheat
- Yam
For an extra accessory, you’ll unlock a Cowpoke Hat.
33. Popular
Befriending 20 people with five hearts will take a while, so know their loved gifts. If the task is complete before Winter, you’ll get Earmuffs from the Hat Mouse for 1000g.
34. Prairie King
Like Fector’s Challenge, you’ll get an achievement for completing Journey of the Prairie King with less difficulty. That’s because you’ll have to reach the sweet ending, and it doesn’t matter how many times you die.
You can apply the same tips. However, collect as many extra lives as possible! Also, move while shooting to avoid enemies and bullets.
35. Protector of the Valley
Aside from growing crops and caring for farm animals, challenging yourself below the ground can spice your gameplay. There are monsters on Skull Cavern, Mines, and even the Quarry! That’s why Gil and Marlon will offer attractive rewards for defeating enemies of all types.
Consider focusing on upgrades and getting a better weapon first if you’re a Stardew Valley beginner. Committing to the Protector of the Valley achievement will take in-game years before completion. However, you can still make progress as you encounter these monsters while mining:
Bats
Almost every floor in the Mines has a swarm of bats like Skull Cavern. They’re weak but may overwhelm you when they travel in packs. However, you can use swords and hammers for a better chance of not losing any HP.
Slaying 200 of them will give you the Vampire Ring. It’ll count whether it’s normal, frost, lava, or iridium (in their dangerous state).
Cave Insects
Bugs (armored and dangerous, Grubs, and Cave Flies (dangerous and mutant) will count for slaying 125 of the creepy crawlies. You can outsmart them either by avoiding or eradicating them before they can damage you.
Duggies
Duggies are the landmines in Stardew Valley, as stepping on dirt inside the Mines will provoke them. It has Dangerous and Magma variants, but you’ll only have to deal with 30 of them.
Dust Sprites
Be it a regular or advanced type, 500 Dust Sprites is enough for completion. These monsters are fragile and may die from your weapon at a single swing.
Magma Sprites
150 Magma Sprite and Sparker are hardcore but doable – just make sure to have a strong weapon. Both enemies fly like a Haunted Skull, except the Sparker type will charge forward and apply slow on contact. Best solution: don’t stop running and swinging your weapon simultaneously.
Mummies
Skull Cavern is home to Mummies, and you’ll need 100 of them to get the Arcane Hat. Since they can regenerate after breaking down, bring bombs to confirm the kill. Otherwise, you can enchant your weapon with Crusader to avoid the monster’s revival.
Pepper Rex
This monster attacks like a flamethrower while overwhelming the player. Fortunately, the target kill count is 50, and defeating them takes switching between positions as you avoid their fiery breath.
Rock Crabs
Like Bats, Rock Crabs swarm all Mines and Skull Cavern floors. They look like normal breakable stones or nodes until they move. Any variant will count towards the target 60, but make sure to use bombs to save time!
Serpents
Whether it’s the standard or royal version, Serpents are notorious for defeating beginners. Take a step back and get a strong weapon before killing 250 of them. Otherwise, it’ll be a flight response, or you won’t make it.
Slimes
Despite their cuteness, slimes are hostile and will attack you. One of the monster eradication goals is defeating 1000 of the creatures. You can find them in any cave, except Big Slimes, and those raised in Hutches won’t count.
Skeletons
Another monster to target are Skeletons (50 kill count) regardless of the type. They’re fragile as their bones but dangerous as an edge of the Cutlass. Keep moving while striking to survive every encounter!
Void Spirits
Aside from Krobus, Shadow People thrive below the Mines of Pelican Town. On average, they have Shamans and Brutes (dangerous) and Snipers at the cave’s deadlier state.
Which weapon to use? It’ll always be swords and hammers to keep a safe distance from them. Get 150 Void Spirits for a nasty Savage Ring.
36. Singular Talent
The most practical way of getting this achievement depends on your hobby and farm layout. Using the standard farm, growing Melons, Cauliflowers, and Pumpkins will give the most XP.
37. Sous Chef
From this list of all available recipes in Stardew Valley, select 25 easiest meals for faster progress. You’ll unlock the Plum Chapeau as a reward.
38. The Beloved Farmer
This achievement requires you to have ten hearts with eight different NPCs. Follow this gifting guide to increase affinity and unlock Cat Ears.
39. The Bottom
If you’re a beginning Stardew Valley player, reaching the Mines’ bottom is quite the achievement. However, you’ll need to consider the following tips for an earlier success:
- Mine on super lucky days
- Increase your luck with food items
- Bring bombs
- Consume Oil of Garlic
- Bring staircases
- Upgrade tools and weapons
Avoid going home at 1 o’clock if you don’t want to lose your items and progress. Also, consider buying the Return Scepter or crafting a Warp Totem: Farm if you’re speedmining. Nonetheless, a successful attempt may take a year, but you’ll unlock the Skull Key afterward.
40. Treasure Trove
From this list, you’ll see every possible Museum donation. You’ll need 40 items to get the Treasure Trove achievement and a bonus Blue Bonnet.
