⚠️ Common Mistakes
- Installing multiple mods that modify the same files without checking compatibility
👍 Pros
- Huge community trust with 12,330 endorsements and over 678k downloads.
- Adds a fresh layer of roleplay to death events, making them feel more impactful.
- Covers all vanilla spouses plus SVE, so it's got broad compatibility.
👎 Cons
- Last updated in January 2021 — may need checking for compatibility with the latest Stardew Valley updates.
- Only triggers on death in specific locations (mines, Skull Cavern, volcano), so it won't affect other death scenarios.
- Requires a spouse to be married, so it's useless for single players or those early in the game.
