How to open Skull Cavern in Stardew Valley
Honestly, just reaching level 120 in the Mines to get the Skull Key feels like the real challenge. Once you've done that, Skull Cavern is just a bus ride away to the Calico Desert. But beware, it’s way harder than the Mines, so stock up on food and bombs!

Shortcut version: Hit level 120 in the Mines, snatch the Skull Key, go to Calico Desert. Done. You're in. Now, try to stay alive in there, will ya?
Just grab the Skull Key from the bottom of the Mines and head over to the desert. The door to Skull Cavern opens like it's been waiting just for you. Make sure your inventory is packed though; it's not a walk in the park in there.
To unlock Skull Cavern, you first need to reach the bottom of the Mines (level 120), where you'll find the Skull Key. This key magically unlocks the entrance to the Skull Cavern located in the Calico Desert. Don't forget to prepare well - it's a lot tougher than the Mines!
Getting into Skull Cavern is easy. The hard part is surviving. Make sure you've got plenty of supplies, and maybe don't go alone. Safety in numbers, right?
