The farmhouse left behind by my grandfather is dilapidated and full of debris! Clean up and fix things yourself (with the help of Pelican Town residents) instead of paying Robin to do it. Explore your farmhouse and discover over 75 interesting texts, some weird, some funny, some touching. Complete 25 mini-missions to restore the house and earn fun rewards!

Broken Farmhouse

🏚️ Module introduction

The farmhouse your grandpa left you was once a lovely old building, but it has been abandoned for too long. The basement is moldy, the stairs are unsafe, and the room is filled with too much clutter for you to clean out on your own. Grandpa will tell you about the situation in a letter, and Robin and Lewis will discuss it with you when you arrive in Stardew Valley (don't skip the introduction!)

🎯 Core gameplay

When you wake up on your first day, you'll find a quest chain containing 25 mini-quests. With each completed mission, you'll be able to gradually clean and restore the farmhouse, one room at a time. Some townspeople will help you complete these tasks, occasionally earning small friendship boosts as well as special gifts and rewards.

If you follow the mini-quest chain and complete all the quests, your house will eventually be fully upgraded without having to pay Robin a penny, and you'll get three renovations through your own labor, some wood, and a few gifts to the townsfolk. There are also 75 different fun texts throughout the farmhouse (and basement); can you find them all?

🛠️Making materials

The whole point of this mod is to make restoring a farmhouse fun and rewarding. It costs much less money, but you need to provide a variety of resources, most of which are easily available. Some assets come from Si's Extra Crafting Materials, adding extra variety and immersion to the story.

✉️ Letter system

You'll also communicate with various townsfolk via letters, sending them notes asking for help and hearing back from them later. Please pay attention to these letters! They will give you clues on how to make new craft materials, such as glue, paper, and chains. If you're stuck, you can also check out the Extra Crafting Materials page, which will tell you how to craft all items. Each additional crafting item has two or three different crafting methods.

🎮 Suitable for everyone

• If you want a more immersive gaming experience, focus less on how much money you can make
• If you think the starting farmhouse is too small to be realistic
• If you are looking for fun mini-missions with exciting rewards
• If you want to add a little challenge to your next playthrough
