Olivia ★★★★★

The hardcover feels way sturdier than I expected for a guidebook, and the Kari Fry illustrations make it double as a coffee table book. I've been flipping to the crop charts constantly while playing 1.6, and having the villager gift lists right there beats alt-tabbing to a wiki.

Matthew ★★★★★

Bought this for my second playthrough and the illustrations by Kari Fry are genuinely gorgeous — I keep flipping to the seasonal crop charts mid-game instead of alt-tabbing to the wiki. Hardcover feels sturdy enough to leave open on my desk, and it's current with 1.6.8 so nothing's outdated.

Kevin ★★★★★

The fifth edition art is gorgeous, Kari Fry's illustrations make the whole valley feel cozy on paper. I've been flipping to the crop profit tables constantly while playing 1.6.8, and the hardcover actually lies flat on my desk.
