Disney Dreamlight Valley is an Amazing Life Simulation Game

That marries exploration, questing, and farming mechanics in a Disney-themed world. No matter if you're just starting the game or you're optimising your gameplay, this guide gives you must-know tips on the best way to exploit your adventure.

Be Sure to Prioritize Story Quests

These quests unlock core game features like new areas, characters, and gameplay mechanics. So early on, listen to Merlin for an efficient way to progress in the game.

Gather and Store Resources

  • The basic materials for crafting and cooking the wood, stone, and Dreamlight are doing their rounds in whatever they can do through mining, fishing, and gardening.
  • Storage chests can be utilised to save all the materials for crafting and cooking.
  • In addition, continue hoarding Dreamlight to unlock new biomes and realms along the way.

Expand Inventory:

Your beginning inventory is relatively small, and you will have to spend Star Coins to expand it. Prioritise upgrading this, as it will let you carry more and make fewer trips to the storage chests.

Farm and Cook

Selling crops and creating meals is the ideal way to earn investment coins.

  • A good early crop to make coins is carrots & tomatoes.
  • Other late-game crops include pumpkins.
  • Cooked meals: combining ingredients into meals increases the selling price.

Make Friends With Disney Characters

  • Raise the friendship levels of characters to access exclusive rewards and new quests.
  • Assign the Villagers Their Tasks (Gardening, Mining, Fishing) to Get Resource Boosts While They Accompany You.
  • Give them Their Favourite Daily Gifts to Level Up Faster.

Expand and Decorate Your House

Make your house larger so that it can accommodate all your things and decorate it with furniture to create a personalised dream Disney home.

Manage Energy

  • Cooked meals restore energy more quickly than raw ingredients do.
  • Go home or consume food to refill energy quickly.
  • The best part about upgrading the Royal Tools watering can, pickaxe, shovel, and fishing rod is that you'll do more work in less time.

Explore and Unlock Biomes

Dreamlight is used to unlock every biome, which has its own unique kinds of resources and characters:

  • Peaceful Meadow: the early farming and fishing area
  • Forest of Valor: unlocks Kristoff and valuable resources
  • Forgotten Lands: high-end farming and rare materials.
