Disney Dreamlight Valley’s Garden Of Whimsy Star Path Is More Approachable For Players

None Of The Quests Should Take Longer Than Two Days

The trouble with past Star Paths was theirtendency to stretch out over multiple days, making them extra difficult to complete for players who can’t dedicate as much time to the game.Kaitlyn Peterson explains the issuein an op-ed for Screen Rant, writing:

While the initial Star Paths were generally well-received as a fun way to add to the content of the game, the same cannot be said for the most recent ones. …The tasks that are required to earn Star Path tokens and redeem rewards felt unnecessarily punishing.
