Stardew Valley: How to Unlock The Golden Walnut Room (& What’s Inside)
The Golden Walnut Room is a hidden location in Stardew Valley. This guide will show players how they can unlock it and explain what is waiting on the inside. Stardew Valley just got a new 1.5 version update that includes a new location to explore called Ginger Island. Currently, this new content is only available on the PC version of the game as the update will be available on other platforms in the near future. To access Ginger Island, the player will need to help Willy The Fishermen with repairing his ship. After the player completes the list of materials given to them by Willy, they will be able to sail away to the new Ginger Island. Here's where players can find the Golden Walnut Room on Ginger Island.
On Ginger Island, Golden Walnuts are the main new currency available in the game. Players can earn Golden Walnuts by exploring Ginger Island and helping out various NPCs and solving puzzles. The Golden Walnut Room is rewarded to the player after collecting a certain amount of Golden Walnuts on the island so naturally, this is one of the final things players will do on Ginger Island. This guide will show players how they can unlock the Golden Walnut Room.
The Golden Walnut Room is located on the western side of the island on the beach. There will be a doorway that is locked and will only open once the player has collected 100 Golden Walnuts. As mentioned, players will want to solve puzzles and help out various NPCs on Ginger Island to earn enough Golden Walnuts to open up the pathway. Also, even if the player spends the Golden Walnuts, it will not decrease the counter. Once the player has enough Golden Walnuts, the pathway will open up, leading the player inside to see Mr. Qi.
Mr. Qi will provide the player with challenges to complete that can earn the player points to spend at his shop. These challenges are basically timed bounties that will earn the player Qi Gems. There are tons of valuable items the player can collect with the Qi Gems, including the way to unlock the Infinity Blade, the best weapon available in the game. Stardew Valley's 1.5 version update has been substantial to bring players back to the game after taking a break. It is still one of the best life-sims out there.
Stardew Valley is available now on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PC, iOS, and Android.
