You can only connect via IP. You can, however, join a PC-hosted farm from a mobile device via IP.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Barone warned that trying to host or connect to a game over a mobile network will likely not work well. The &#8220;best-case scenario&#8221; for mobile players looking to connect with others is one in which players on a &#8220;high-end mobile device&#8221; connect to a PC-hosted game via WiFi.<\/p>\n<p>The other end of the scale &#8220;would be if someone were to host a game from a low-performance phone, on a cell network (you would probably have to create a mobile wi-fi hotspot for others to connect to locally), and they were on a train or something, going through tunnels. And then the host is also getting calls, causing the app to be interrupted repeatedly.&#8221; In that oddly specific scenario, Barone said the multiplayer experience would be &#8220;potentially frustrating,&#8221; which I would imagine is a bit of understatement.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, Barone also respects the fact that you&#8217;re a grown-ass adult. &#8220;If you want to try these things out, there\u2019s nothing stopping you,&#8221; he wrote. &#8220;Just be aware that there are inherent connectivity issues that can arise when attempting to host a multiplayer game from a mobile device.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The mobile multiplayer mode is hidden because it&#8217;s still &#8220;experimental&#8221; and may have bugs or other issues, and may just not be much fun depending on how you try to use it. To unlock it, you&#8217;ll need to use\u2014and at first I thought Eric was kidding here, but no\u2014the Konami code, as translated onto leaves on the Stardew Valley logo.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"van-image-figure inline-layout\" data-bordeaux-image-check >\n<div class='image-full-width-wrapper'>\n<div class='image-widthsetter' style=\"max-width:1927px;\">\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:78.72%;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"BHrTUdHTjrKKfFLPW92QgH\" name=\"stardew guide\" alt=\"Using the guide below, tap the leaves in this order: \u2191 \u2191 \u2193 \u2193 \u2190 \u2192 \u2190 \u2192 \u2026 Then press the \u201c?\u201d button in the bottom right corner of the screen.
