📂 NPCs

NPCs in Stardew Valley are the characters that populate Pelican Town and the surrounding areas. They include villagers, shopkeepers, marriage candidates, and even hostile monsters. Interacting with NPCs is a core part of the game, as players can build friendships, receive quests, unlock cutscenes, and access unique rewards. Some NPCs run important stores, while others can become spouses or provide storyline progression. Getting to know the NPCs adds depth, personality, and community life to the valley.
