Stardew Valley: How To Befriend The Dwarf

This guide delves into the enigmatic Dwarf of Stardew Valley, offering insights into befriending this unique character. Unlike other villagers, building rapport requires deciphering Dwarvish, a feat achieved by donating all four Dwarf Scrolls to the museum.

Locating the Dwarf: Find the large boulder near the Mines' entrance (first floor, right side). Destroy it using a copper pickaxe or a bomb to reveal the Dwarf's shop.

Unlocking Communication: Collecting and donating the four Dwarf Scrolls to the museum unlocks the Dwarvish Translation guide, enabling communication with the Dwarf.

Gift Giving: Friendship is cultivated through gifts. Two gifts per week are accepted. His birthday (Summer 22nd) multiplies friendship points gained by eight.
