Stardew Valley: Befriend the Dwarf, Guide Released

This guide delves into the enigmatic Dwarf of Stardew Valley, offering insights into befriending this unique character. Unlike other villagers, forging a friendship with the Dwarf requires deciphering Dwarvish, a language unlocked by donating all four Dwarf Scrolls to the museum.

The Dwarf resides in a hidden shop within the mines, accessible after breaking a boulder near the entrance with a copper pickaxe or bomb.

After obtaining the Dwarvish Translation guide, communication becomes possible, enabling gift-giving and the purchase of unique items.

Gift Giving: The Dwarf's affections are earned through carefully selected gifts. Two gifts per week are accepted. Gifts given on his birthday (Summer 22nd) yield eight times the usual friendship points.

Loved Gifts (80 friendship points):

• Gemstones: Amethyst, Aquamarine, Jade, Ruby, Topaz, Emerald
• Lemon Stone
• Omni Geode
• Lava Eel
• All universally loved gifts

Liked Gifts (45 friendship points):

• All universally liked gifts
• All Artifacts
• Cave Carrot
• Quartz

Disliked & Hated Gifts (Friendship decrease): Avoid mushrooms, foraged items, and universally hated gifts (excluding Artifacts).

Once the Movie Theater opens, invite the Dwarf for a film. He enjoys all movie choices but prefers Stardrop Sorbet and Rock Candy as concessions. Cotton Candy, Ice Cream Sandwich, Jawbreaker, Salmon Burger, Sour Slimes, and Star Cookie are also acceptable.

This updated guide incorporates recent game updates, ensuring your quest to befriend the Dwarf is successful.
