I own Stardew Valley but I am avoiding using the Google Play store when possible. While I could just sign into Aurora Store with my Google account I think I’d need to install Google Play Services so I am wondering if I could crack the game myself. I think in the past people used Lucky Patcher but I have tried it with other games that I own with no luck.

I’ve looked through the megathread and it seems like there are versions of Stardew Valley uploaded to Mobilism but a majority of them are modded for things like infinite stamina and money. The version without mods on Mobilism also appears to be re-uploaded from Apk Vision which isn’t in the megathread.

    Nothing, if you want. You can disable network permissions on play services. Google DDG first to make sure that won’t break the game. Depends on what the game uses play services for… if it’s some local functionality it will be fine, if it’s remote functionality then it will break.

      Good point. I had forgotten about disabling network access. I think a majority of the games I paid for work off the idea that if you connect a few times or have a certain amount of plays times you can then play offline. Well the ones that check that is.

      Maybe I’ll give this a go. Thanks for the advice
