With a million things to get done around the Valley, players often lose track of time and venture a little too far from the farmhouse. Fortunately,Stardew Valley’s Update 1.6 has the perfect solution for players to avoid passing out from exhaustion when they’re out in the wild:Tent Kits.
A Tent Kit lets you set up aone-time-use tentfor the farmer to sleep andrestore their energywithout having to trek all the way back to the farm. This is a complete game-changer since you can stay out exploring longer and won’t have to worry about losing any of your valuables.
