Stardew Valley cheats and codes

Stardew Valley features a lot of cheats and item codes for players to enable. So, we’ve compiled a guide with cheats and item codes that can make your gameplay experience easier

Stardew Valley might be one of the most beloved indie games out there, but there are quite a few things to keep track of as you play, including your energy meter and the time of day it is which can limit how much you do in the game.

Cheats and item codes can make your experience more relaxing by allowing you to get resources quickly instead of gathering them manually. Here’s a full list of all the cheats and item codes available in Stardew Valley.

Stardew Valley farm
It takes a lot of time and effort to build the perfect farm, so here’s how to make life easier for yourself.

Stardew Valley Switch cheats

Out-of-bounds glitch

The game has clear boundaries in each area that players can’t venture past. That is, however, unless you know this handy trick. If you approach the edge of any given area and start swinging a tool or weapon, you’ll gradually move forward and out of bounds.

Some of these new areas are relatively useless, like the boundary near your house that just leads to pure darkness. But, that’s not to say it can’t be handy in certain situations.

In particular, using this glitch near water can help you get a better spot for fishing.

Stay up after 2 AM

Stardew Valley gives players a pretty strict bedtime to stick to. If the in-game clock hits 2 AM your character will pass out and be returned home safely, albeit a few Gold lighter than you were before.

But if you’re in the middle of a vital task, this can be extremely irritating, forcing you to pick up where you left off the next day. Luckily, you can stave off the sleep temporarily by opening your Journal once your character starts yawning.

It’s far from ideal, as you will have to keep repeating each time the animation starts, but it can buy some valuable time to finish up before bed.

Stardew Valley at night
Stardew Valley has a strict curfew, but it’s not impossible to get around.

Gold Spring Onions Stardew Valley cheat

Golden Spring Onions are one of Stardew Valley’s most sought-after items, thanks to the extremely useful effects they grant the player. They offer huge health and energy boosts, allowing you to make the most of your limited hours in a day.

To make sure that the only Spring Onions you pick are of the very best quality, you need to make sure that your character’s inventory is stocked to maximum capacity. One of the slots must contain Gold Spring Onions, and there can’t be any other types of Spring Onion to be seen.

Now, you will only be able to collect the best of the best, and you won’t have to worry about Spring Onions of a lower quality sneaking into your pocket.

Extended fishing time Stardew Valley cheat

Fishing is a vital part of Stardew Valley, but traveling there and back can take up a huge portion of your time. This means you often have to call it a day pretty quickly, so leveling up your skill becomes a real hassle.

However, the Journal is here to save the day once again. So long as you have an active quest, you can pause the in-game clock while your fishing continues uninterrupted.

All you have to do is cast a line, bring up the journal, and wait for a bite. This will let you get a week’s worth of fishing done in a single day, which frees up plenty of time for other activities.

Fishing is a vital way to make money in Stardew Valley.

Galaxy Sword Stardew Valley cheat

The Galaxy Sword is an extremely rare weapon that most players won’t earn dozens of hours. It is usually obtained by holding a Prismatic Shard between three pillars in the Calico Desert, but the shard is hard to come by.

If you’re looking to bag the sword early, you can by visiting Pierre’s General Store. First of all, buy the catalog from him for 30,000g, then purchase the green wallpaper.

Thanks to a glitch in the code, the green wallpaper is recognized as the same item as a Prismatic Shard. This means when you hold it between the three pillars, it will automatically be replaced by the Galaxy Sword.

Unlimited money glitch

If you’re looking to breeze through those early stages and go straight to a super-farm, there’s a really easy exploit that can grant players unlimited Gold. This is done by constantly duplicating items so they can be sold over and over again for profit.

Every item in Stardew Valley has a numerical code, and if you put up to three of these codes as your character’s name separated by square brackets you can force these items to appear in your inventory.

This happens any time your character’s name appears in a dialogue box. So, for example, if you set your name to [16][107][154], then a Wild Horseradish, Dinosaur Egg, and Sea Cucumber would drop straight into your collection.

The fastest way to rack up the money is to choose the codes of the most valuable items and talk to a character like Gus the bartender. He regularly uses the player’s name when speaking to be able to fill your inventory quickly.
