The Treasure Chest is one of the rarest items in the game and can only be obtained by playing the Fishing Minigame. At random times when fishing, a treasure chest will appear on your interface with a progression bar. To fill the progression bar, you must keep the green bar behind the treasure chest icon.

Treasure Chest Cheat Help

Item spawning in Stardew Valley isn't accomplished through typical commands. Instead, it involves a cheat method where you name your character, or an animal, with the item code of the desired item, enclosed in square brackets [ and ]. Include the brackets when naming.

Spawn Using Animal Name

To spawn this item, buy an animal (we recommend a chicken because it is the cheapest) from Marnie's Ranch, name it [166]. You will then receive the Treasure Chest item.

Spawn Using Character Name

Since you can only set your character's name once at the game's inception, we advise using the animal naming method.

However, if you opt for this method, name your character [166] while creating your save file. When you converse with any villager who mentions your name in their dialogue, like Gus at the Stardrop Saloon, you'll receive the Treasure Chest item.
