Whois & Analysis for stardewvalleywiki.com

Stardew Valley is an indie farming simulation role-playing video game developed solely by Eric Barone and published by Chucklefish Games.

The game was released for Microsoft Windows in February 2016, with ports for OS X, Linux, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One released later that year.

A port for Nintendo Switch is also in development and is expected to be released in 2017.

In Stardew Valley, the player takes the role of a character that, to get away from the hustle of an office job, takes over their grandfather's dilapidated farm in a place known as Stardew Valley.

The player manages their character's time and energy levels as they clear land, plant and tend crops, raise livestock, craft goods, mine for ores, and engage in social activities, including romances leading towards marriage, with the various residents of the small town, all while earning in-game money to expand their farm.

The game is open-ended, allowing the player to take on activities as they see fit.

In general, a rural area or countryside is a geographic area that is located outside towns and cities.

The Health Resources and Services Administration of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services defines the word "rural" as encompassing "...all population, housing, and territory not included within an urban area.

Whatever is not urban is considered rural.".

A role-playing game (RPG and sometimes roleplaying game) is a game in which players assume the roles of characters in a fictional setting.

Players take responsibility for acting out these roles within a narrative, either through literal acting or through a process of structured decision-making or character development.

Actions taken within many games succeed or fail according to a formal system of rules and guidelines.

A wiki is a website that provides collaborative modification of its content and structure directly from the web browser.

In a typical wiki, text is written using a simplified markup language (known as "wiki markup") and often edited with the help of a rich-text editor.

A wiki is run using wiki software, otherwise known as a wiki engine.

There are dozens of different wiki engines in use, both standalone and part of other software, such as bug tracking systems.

Some wiki engines are open source, whereas others are proprietary.

Some permit control over different functions (levels of access); for example, editing rights may permit changing, adding or removing material.

Others may permit access without enforcing access control.

Other rules may also be imposed to organize content.

A wiki engine is a type of content management system, but it differs from most other such systems, including blog software, in that the content is created without any defined owner or leader, and wikis have little implicit structure, allowing structure to emerge according to the needs of the users.
