⚠️ Common Mistakes

  • Installing multiple mods that modify the same files without checking compatibility

👍 Pros

  • Community favorite with 1,899 endorsements and 56k downloads — clearly doing something right.
  • Simple, focused tweak that makes beach foraging less tedious.
  • Crabs add a new collectible to the beach, giving you more reason to check the shore.

👎 Cons

  • No detailed description — you'll have to test to see exactly how much spawn rates change.
  • Only affects the Beach, so if you wanted more forage elsewhere, this won't help.
  • Last updated June 2024 — might not be compatible with the latest Stardew Valley version if it's changed since.
