If there's one thing that Stardew Valley players and Lego builders have in common, it's an impressive level of dedication to executing a creative vision. Stardew players are known for optimizing farm layouts that are equal parts beauty and efficiency, so it's no surprise that one of them went and built the entirety of Pelican Town in Lego. The feat took about 2 years to complete, its creator told PC Gamer.
Steve Jensen has been posting in-progress photos of the build over on the Stardew Valley forums since last year, and brought it out to the Lego fan exhibition BrickCon 2024 last weekend. It's an amazing build with tons of detail, covering everything in Pelican Town from the player's farm over to JojaMart and the forest down to the beach. It even has the giant "Stardew Valley" title screen in the back. You can see a view of the full build up above or check out this video by Beyond The Brick, which quotes the build at a total of 75,000 pieces and zooms in on various parts.
