I can always change it back right?
Yep
yeah
Okay good
So when it says "time travel one month forward", you change the date on your switch settings, then close and open the game
No worries, just keep in mind it can be a bit tedious
either way you can just wait for a villager to decide to get out of the island on their own
I'm more on the chill side Animal Crossing wise so that's what I do
Make sure you finish the dialogue and save the game
Then change your switch time back to normal, and reload the game, and you're done
So i gotta wait one month for him to go?
No he'll go tomorrow
Okay phew im so scared
how do i get the ladder?
The game doesn't register time travel backwards. Only a few specific instances
Does anyone wanna play animal crossing
One you reach the stage where Tom nook asks you to place 3 plots, the recipe will be available at nooks cranny
Try in #acnh-chat⛱️, this is for game help
I see that my villager is now packing his house. I'm just confused why all my data from today is gone? Not like my whole island and stuff, but for example, before i time traveled, i harvested some carrots, but now theyre back. Is it supposed to be like that?
how long does it take for this? im currently at the stage where i build my first house
That would have happened when you time travelled forward, new carrots grew
Only a couple of days of progression, I'm afraid I don't remember the exact order of events
I also opened my mail before, but now the same mails are back.
If it's things like abd interest or mom letters, that comes every month
Or, you may have forgotten to save before you exited at some point
Yeah i was about to say, maybe i just forgot to save
That makes sense
Anyways, thank you very much 
👌
whats dream code, creator code, and happy house code im still relatively new to animal crossing
(Please @ me, I'm at work and might lose the reply)
We transfered my partner's island from my Switch to their new one and her Nintendo Account.
If I log in my Nintendo account on her Switch, can I access my old house?
does anyone have any good tips on getting my island to 3 stars ??
maybe planting flowers in empty areas?
•• Island Rating ••
• You unlock K.K. Slider concerts and the Island Designer app (terraforming) once you achieve your first 3-star rating.
• You obtain the Golden Watering Can DIY once you achieve your first 5-star rating. Also, lilies-of-the-valley can spawn as long as your island keeps its 5-star rating!
•• How do I get a 3- or 5-star rating? ••
• The basic idea is to fill your island with plants and furniture, as Isabelle usually suggests. So if she says to add flowers, do it - or at least, wait for them to be fully bloomed (to get the max points from them) ; Same thing if she hints at adding furniture.
an open area like this? srry about the broken screen btw
Yes
Thank you!
It becomes available after your first campsite villager has moved in
You just have to go to the airport and choose the option "I want to go to work"
?
•• Dream FAQs ••
• How do I dream? - Go to a bed indoors and lie down. Select "I want to sleep." This will allow you to enter the dream world and meet Luna! From there, select "I want to dream" and then enter a dream address! You can find dream addresses to visit in #dream-addresses🌜. Enjoy dreaming!
• How do I get my dream address? - Go to a bed indoors and lie down. Select "I want to sleep." From there you will meet Luna! Select "Share a dream" to receive your dream code.
• What is the point of dreaming? - You can explore other user's islands at your own leisure to get inspiration or talk to different villagers!
🌟 Any changes made by visitors will NOT affect your real island and visitors can NOT take anything from a dream! 🌟
Lottie won't be there
When you go to the airport tell the dodo you want to work
Lottie won't come back
Go to the airport , talk to the dodo, and tell them you want to work
Lottie won't be there
The dodo will give you that option
Lottie is only there the first time
Ohhh have you gone into the building on the island ?
Lottie should be in there
Behind the desk
Did you check the school building? (Left side)
would it work with a cot or do i need to upgrade
It will work with a cot but you do need to unlock dreaming first
how can i do that
By upgrading resident services and upgrading your tent to a house
i have a house, how do i update resident services? im currently making stuff for 3 people who tom nook convinced to live on our island, once im done and the houses are built will ny resident services be ungraded?
What does having a 5 star island do? Cuz swear nothings changed on my island rlly
also how do i get ride of tree stumps, and how long does it take for a non-native tree to grow(ie; apple or coconut on an island wear pears grow) and how long do trees grow in general, and flowers
ok thanks
oh my gosh i tried before but it didn't work and now it does? i used the same shovel (like type, so its just as good as last time) that's so silly
If I don't have a clifftop building in the 3rd layer will it apply to the 2nd?
You get lily of the valley flowers
OHHH was wondering where they came from, ty
how do you trade villagers
i have muffy and biff and im looking to trade biff cause hes getting of my nerves for some reason
If i make my island a dream island, am i still able to edit it?
Any tips to get rid of villagers and get them to move out?
yeah but for it to be shown you gotta update the dream address
that's why there are winter dream islands all year long
or similar
•• How to Move Out Villagers ••
• Read Yue's Comprehensive Move-Out Handbook https://yuexr.github.io/acnh/moveout to understand how the thought bubble move-out process works.
• Which villagers can ask to move out?: https://tinyurl.com/yale3ggw
is it possible to re-invite a villager to your island using their amiibo?
Yes
confused right now. i visited somebody's island for trading after i had recently kicked a villager off of my own. i didn't talk to anybody there, but when i came back gonzo was visiting.
which was fine, but now he's listed as a resident and he won't go away. is he just ... here now? could i still get another person to move in and then this godforsaken koala will leave? do i need to kick somebody ELSE out?

Yes you do. Latest wont ask to move out**. If you visit a friends island you have a chance at getting one of their villagers to move in whether you talked to them or not. Gonzo moved in since you visited and the plot wasn't filled at the time so he popped into the move in queue
I invited the two I seen but I only have anges and buck also the major
is it possible to kick any villager using amiibos? even the ones that last moved in?
Yep
It's actually possible to kick anyone you talked to with any camper 
What are turnips?
turnips are a vegetable (i think?) that Daisy Mae sells on Sundays from 5am to 12pm (noon). You can get Daisy Mae on your island by opening up Nook's Cranny (the store/shop).
You should get a letter in the mail from her confirming that she will be coming the Sunday after the shop is ready to use.
It is called the "Stalk Market" as a play on words for the real world "Stock Market". The goal is to buy low from Daisy (90 is her lowest) and sell high to Nook's Cranny (600, I think? is the highest).
It is a good way to get rich. You can sell them on your island or anyone else's island in #turnips-looking-for #daisy-nookling-ads and #698949096601419827
Anyone got advice on getting the Fly for my museum? I've got a turnip on the ground but all I'm getting are ants.
That's a bummer.
You need to drop trash to attract flies (cans, tires, boots, etc)
If I had a villager move out yesterday and they're plot is empty today what would happened if I time traveled back to yesterday
It might autofill
what channel is it to advertise a yard sale again 🫣
omg thank u I’m blind apparently 😭☝🏻
I want to restart my island but i have a lot of bells, is there a way I can carry those bells on?
If you have nso read #middleman-rules‼️
can someone tell me which fruit im missing? 😭
orange?
Peach
no it’s the second one
ohhh thank u, that’s my native fruit so i didn’t think i needed to plant it too. thanks a lot! 🫶
Can someone tell me if I jump in time to tomorrow to have residential services built and jump back to today will it be there?
Time traveling does not reverse / rewind progress. You still keep all the progress, items, etc. that you've completed / acquired even if you time travel backwards.
No worries. I’ve done that too haha.
hey, can anybody help me? I just got new horizons and I’m having troubles progressing through it.
how may i help you? c:
Thanks, VC?
atm i can’t speak but i can type
Can I add you to get you on my island at least
yeah ofc
ok
with people on your island you can't progress, if you're having difficulty, always ask tom nook , he should explain what you need to do 
Is there a way to identify the genuine vs fake informative statue if it’s during the day?
Fake is blue
Ooh good to know!
He don't help
Ya but it only changes during night
no, it's blue all day
what does he say ?
He always says to keep fishing and finding branches and stuff whenever I been fishing for over two days
yes
how many ?
Like 10-15
you gave 10 fish to tom nook saying "I found a creature" ?
Oh ok ty
Yes is there something wrong
yes, since it is not possible since you can give him only 5 critters, do you mind showing the option tom nook give you when you talk to him ?
I gave them to him individually and he took 10 of them not five and I don’t know why, because I knew it was only supposed to be five
do you mind showing the option tom nook give you when you talk to him ?
When you preset the creature, do you press "yes" that he can give them to his friend (blathers) and does he put them in his pocket?
yes
if the option "I've found a creature" is available it means you don't have reached the 5 creatures yet
you can only give one of each species at a time
Could have swore give them over five creatures
nah
Oof
hi, so am I allowed to ask questions about other channels(not like designs or trading)
Yes
okay then am I allowed to post more than one intro, like one every year
sure, go for it!
ty
Can anybody help me set up my like island friend code thing because every time I put in my switch friend code it says member not found
What are you trying to do?
Are you trying to add yourself?
I don't understand.
no, it’s in the dodo airlines area. I’m not fully sure on how to do that.
Oh, you are trying to open your island for visitors? Or are you trying to visit someone else's island?
Also, do you have Nintendo Switch Online?
Set my island up for visitors and yes, I do have switch online
you need to give your code to people for them to be able to come, there's no random people that can come
Ok
if you want to visit/ have visitors you can try #island-hangouts🛩️🏝️
if you set it to friends, people you are friends with on switch already can come and visit, but they need to know you have opened your gates so you still need to tell them
Is anyone on to help me out if that’s ok
what do you need help with ?
Well I’m new to playing animal crossing and I want to make a ladder so I looked up on how to get it
you need blathers
The owl I have him
you need to unlock more villagers
once you get the to the quest where you have to build the houses, Tom Nook will give you the ladder
Ok so I found two and invited them
oh I was thinking of the pole
adopting them is one thing, you need to build them homes
and one of the material requires the ladder so Tom Nook will give it to you
Oh okay now how do I build homes
what does tom nook say when you ask "what should I do?"
also I advise you adopt a third villager of your choosing before completing the houses
as if you don't it will autofill
So that’s the other thing when I go to islands I can’t find any more villagers
then you adopted 3 I believe
you won't find more until you have empty plot now, which you can get again once you have 6 villagers
Will these bushes grow here or do I need to move them to an open area to grow then replant them here ? Also what is this table called? Or can any table have an umbrella added like that?
I believe they would grow there. I went to a town where the trees were literally almost on top of each other next to the edge of the map.
Thank you guys ❤️❤️❤️
So that’s what toms says to me
are you the only player ?
What do you mean
ok, you just need to wait a day or two then, did you build the shop ?
No he’s still in the tent
you'll need to tackle that then, build the shop 
I don’t have that option
did you talk to timmy ?
How many days have passed in-game?
can you give him wood and iron ?
Isn’t the games time follow real time
yes but some people trick the switch clock and time travel
Unless you change the time on your switch so it is not present day.
I talk to Timmy all he wants me to do is sell or buy things
You can do tht
as Erin asked how long ago did you start ?
I started like 3/4 days ago
and how long ago did you unlock the museum / pay your loan ?
did you upgrade the house straight away ?
I think so
I'm sorry been a while since I did the start, I'm a bit fuzzy on details, if I were you I'd start saving 30 of each kind of wood and iron, and talk to timmy (the little nookling in the tent" until he ask about donating for a shop
I have 30 of each
Have you bought anything from the shop?
It may have to be triggered by buying something.
Lots of things
Do you have a house or a tent?
Can we make models of deep sea creatures like we can bugs and fish?
This is my map
so there is 2 accounts
Are you the island resident? There are 2 people there.
you didn't name the island did you
No but the game is brand new
Only the island resident/person who named the island, can get the shop.
and progress the story overall
Wow so do I have to start completely over
was there not an account linked to that character ?
No there’s no account on here but mine
did you get the switch from someone else ?
The pawn shop
but yes essentially you have to restart
Now how can I restart
•• A Guide to Resetting Your Island ••
- Go to the Home page on your Nintendo Switch.
- Scroll over and go into your ⚙️ System Settings.
- Scroll down to Data Management and select Delete Save Data.
- Scroll to Animal Crossing: New Horizons and select it, and then select Delete All Save Data for This Software.
NOTE: ⚠️ Do NOT select Software > Delete Software. This will delete your game! ⚠️
you can get someone to walk you through all the steps and hold your items you wanna keep
a middleman
I offered that via DMs just now. lol
im a mind reader
lol
Well ty you all for the help
Np!
I saw a thought bubble on a villager yesterday, ignored her, and then haven’t seen one on a villager at all today. Does talking to the queued villager while they’re inside kill the bubble?
it will not, there might be a bubble but you are not guaranteed it
if you didn't see one today, you still might get one tomorrow
Hi everyone, I have a technical question about the Switch console user accounts. Does anyone know if removing the user account which owns Animal Crossing off a Switch will delete the island on that Switch? I currently have 2 accounts on my Switch, and only user A has Animal Crossing, though user B has been playing and building an island. I'd like to buy AC for user B, and then delete user A from this Switch, but continue using the same island for user B. I think this will work, as I know that islands live on the console itself, as opposed to in the Nintendo Online cloud, but I'm kind of worried that when I remove user A, it will remove all the games associated with it, even though user B will have a copy of AC by then, too, and it will remove the island
Thank youuuu ❤️
I guess what I want to do is basically swap the Nintendo account that owns ACNH on the switch, but continue using the same account to actually access the game, if that makes sense. Currently, the account which I'm using to play the game is not the one which actually owns the game. I want to change that, and buy a copy of the game with the account that plays it, and then remove the other account, but I'm worried that when I go to remove the old account, it might delete the island data
you can't change the main player, so you can't really do that
I don't quite understand. I dont want to change the main player in the game, I just want to change the account which owns the software on the switch itself
I'm pretty sure you can freely move between using digital and physical copies of games on the same switch, and it will keep the same user save data, so I figured this would work too
well one switch = one island, so yes the way the game is launched won't change anything, but you were asking about erasing an account I believe ? the account the created the island can't realy be erased without consequences if I'm not mistaken.
Ah, okay. Thanks. That's good to know
can I use abd at someone else's island
As long as it is not the one inside their resident's center.
ok ty
Upgraded nooks come before or after the first campsite villager?
I can't remember which it is tbh..
before, you need to have isabelle before tom nook talks about the campsite
Gotcha gotcha, ty !
So if I become a three star island and start that part of the story, where KK slider comes to my island. But then my go down to like that one star two stars will KK still up here at my island.?
once you start getting kk visits, he won't stop coming when it drops again
Ok, will anything else stop if my rating drops?
i don't think so!!
Hey, quick question! How many villagers can you have on your island? I've forgotten
10
thanks!
yw
When I go to terraform my island am I going to need to kick away all the paths from the design tool I’ve placed? Or will they disappear like the trees do when I go to place a building or something where it’s at?
They should disappear @vital trail
How do you know when you can invite more villagers?
How many do you have rn?
i have 6
Has Tom nook talked to you about project K yet?
no
What happens when you sit at his counter in resident services?
resident services? i don’t think i have that i have construction consultation counter
so i just got acnh
and i really wish I had picked a better island
uhm, i wanna restart but I have the timmy and tommy shop up already and blathers tent, and idk
also I landed 2 really good villagers for start and on other abandoned islands
but my "plaza" is close to DAL and blathers is already next to it, idk, i wanna restart
but i Kinda wanna work with it, I wanted to know also if anyone would be down helping design and what not, maybe help me decide where things should go /c from another server
idk if its the right way to go.. am I to far in or would I be able to redo it?
This chat is more for... like actual mechanical questions.
That being said
I would give this advice: It's a lot easier to start over at your current stage, than it would be if you wait longer.
Take it from somebody who wishes their plaza wasn't so close to the airport, and wishes they picked an island that didn't have two south rivermouths
ahh, ok! thanks :D
Well ok! ig this would count as mechanical, how do u start over?
When you load the game up, before you "Click A to enter", hit the "-" key
This will bring up the Tom Nook menu. From here you can wipe the island and start over
Just to be very clear though, it's gone for good once you do this.
Oh ok! thank you :3
Ik, theres nothing special
re: Why it's good to do this NOW
it was going to crap anyways, every shop was misplaced
Cuz at this stage you haven't gotten super invested in your island yet
well
the shops can be moved
well i mean blathers
everything can be moved except for the rivermouths, the dock, the airport, and the plaza
i had and idea, but i placed to close to the plaza
Blathers can be moved
He can?
I was told he cant
not* yet
but once you unlock the full town center, instead of the tom nook tent
and you unlock the ability to move buildings
and this will be AFTER he upgrades from a tent to a full Museum
I know that in game have storage for clouthes. But have any storage for tools? I put tools around the house and it’s a little interfere🤔
This is a person taking a screenshot for moving an island home, but you can see all the choices beneath it
The same storage can be used for tools and clothes
But yes, I'd say at this sage @eternal pivot starting over is a good option
Yea, the plaza is grossly placed to!
and i got oranges and im allergic to em!
Just do keep in mind to prioritize these things, as they CANNOT be moved:
- Airport placement
- Plaza placement
- Rivermouth locations (two south, one south one east, one south one west)
Things that DONT really matter:
- Where you place your home, shops, villagers homes, or blathers. These can be moved
- Your "native flower" or "native fruit" as you can get different ones from other places rather easily
Wow, really? I have wardrobe and chest of drawers but all time when I “open” them it’s just dialog about changing clothes
thanks! :D would it be much to ask you to dm me so you could maybe help me as I go?
Maybe I just need bring them outside
Absolutely! Feel free to shoot me a DM
That comes from the storage in your home.
Open your inventory with X inside your home, press on an item, and there should be an option “add to storage” or something like that
Eventually you will get storage sheds unlocked that work just like wardrobes
I know yes. But what about outside when what put tools in storage but outside home?
Sorry for poor explanation
You can’t until you unlock the storage shed
Which comes when you have a 3* island and kk plays
I have 5 islands, changed main square
Maybe it will come soon. Thank you
If you have a 5* then you can order it from ABD inside resident’s services from redeeming nook miles. It is near the bottom
I’m kinda confused about these fish it is like my 10 day of acnh and I caught these fish recently
Are they rare
Ooo, thanks!
If I don't do interior and exterior gateaway package will the plot auto fill?
Are you talking about those 3 homes Tom gave you?
Ya
nothing will happen if you don’t make those interior and exterior items.
How do you get a bridge if you can
No auto fill or anything. You have to so you can process in the game
Once your resident’s center upgrades from a tent to a building you can ask Tom under infrastructure to build one
Ok thanks
I finish 1 getaway plot. I want to villager hunt and finish it
How can I make more bells? Besides selling to Timmy? I currently am struggling to pay my loan and I want to be able to pay it off so I can get a bigger house.
How to MAKE BELLS, the SIMPLE Way:
- Play the stalk market: buy turnips at a low price and sell them high.
- Dive and catch sea creatures to sell back to Nook's Cranny.
- Grow stuff (fruits, flowers, pumpkins, etc) and sell to Nook's Cranny.
- If you have NSO (Nintendo Switch Online), trade with other players by visiting the trade channels in this server and seeing where to sell your services or goods!
You can villager hunt between each one
Sea creatures are pretty lucrative but it can take a bit
How do I dive?-
They won’t move in until they are all done though
Buy a wetsuit from the Cranny and once you are wearing it you can swim into the ocean and Dive for shadows with the bubbles coming up
Thank you so much
Thank you!
If I where to buy a new animal Crossing would it reset my world?
How can I add friends?
Or people-
And I also wanna know how to add design codes or whatever that stuff is
The only way I know how is by Nintendo online
Ah ok
No, islands are tied to the switch not the game
Oh okay ty
It’s called “OK montor sign”
2? Don’t u start off the game with 3
No, you start with two
Ohhh
Tom Nook will eventually have you build a bridge, after that you can place down three new plots
You will have to contribute DIY furnitures to them before villagers will move in
Kk
How do i get iron nuggets ACNH ???
from hitting rocks
Thanks
yw
Blathers will give one to you once the museum tent is built
The recipe I mean, not the pole
ok
how to i get 3 stars?
•• Island Rating ••
• You unlock K.K. Slider concerts and the Island Designer app (terraforming) once you achieve your first 3-star rating.
• You obtain the Golden Watering Can DIY once you achieve your first 5-star rating. Also, lilies-of-the-valley can spawn as long as your island keeps its 5-star rating!
•• How do I get a 3- or 5-star rating? ••
• The basic idea is to fill your island with plants and furniture, as Isabelle usually suggests. So if she says to add flowers, do it - or at least, wait for them to be fully bloomed (to get the max points from them) ; Same thing if she hints at adding furniture.
what does it say when i get my stars?
and how do i build paths and bushes and fences and that??
When you ask Isabelle about island evals she will tell you your star rating - when you hit 3 she will simply say so and you get a mini 'cutscene' of Tom inviting KK
okay what about bushes
Fences are DIY's you can buy from the abd (or trade them), terraforming, aka laying paths and building cliffs/rivers, comes after you hit 3 stars. Bushes are bought from Leif.
It will upgrade I believe after you have 5 residents (animals) on the island
i have 5 residents
He is a random npc visitor
They need to be fully moved in, none in boxes
When do the able sisters show up
theres no boxes
Have you built Nook's Cranny
yes
Mabel will visit on the weekends in a pop up stand
Ohhhh
and your house is not a tent anymore?
It should have been upgraded if all of your villagers are 100% moved in and the shop is finished being built
By all I mean all 3 you place the new plots for
i have nooks cranny able sisters and my houae
Can I see an image of your map/villagers
Is there a trick to getting your villagers to ask you to do things? I've got top friendship with 9/10 of my villagers and people almost never ask me to do anything.
im in another map rn i can do it in like 5 mins?
do you still want the image?
If you still need help it would be helpful to see it
The full map please. I am trying to see your villagers
i dont know how to open my full map
It is an app on your Nook Phone
I would also recommend this as a general beginner guide https://chibisnorlax.github.io/acnhbeginners/walkthrough/
whats that
You need to give tom nook 5 critters (fish/bugs) and he will ask an owl, blathers, to move in
After you give Tom nook 5 critters you can place the museum tent plot and the next day blathers will have moved in
alright
Then you start donating bugs and fish to him to upgrade/build the museum
how long will thqt take?
A day at least it takes a day for the buildings to be built
Placing flowers, decorations, fences, etc
alright
and do i get that app?
and how do i get bushes and arch and stuff?
and walls?
Any furniture will count. After 3 stars is when you get the app, but again, you need Isabelle first. It can be a process. For decorating tips #acnh-chat⛱️ is better as this channel is for mechanical questions only
After resident services is upgraded you can move anything besides the airport and resident services
alright thanks!
if i time travel within the same day (ex. it’s night, but i’d like to move back to daytime) will it spoil my turnips?
even A minute backwards will spoil them
aww sad. thank you!
Sorry for stupid question but. In trade sometimes talking about stack of anything. 1 stack it’s 1 full slot of thing, isn’t it?
ya a stack would be a full slot
Thank you 
so about the villagers, i know there is like a lot of them and there is like only a certain number you can have but is there like a thing for having a specific villager? or is there a reason someone just like a specific villager just because? also the island seems small and i just don’t want to mess up with the layout and stuff.
Villagers have personalities but in the personalities mostly the same lines are said over and over, so in ACNH villagers are really chosen based on personal opinion of how they look/fit into a theme/if its a personality you prefer. The island looks small but the layout more than fits all 10 houses
Yes after resident services is upgraded to a buiilding,, the only ones you cannot change is resident services and the airport
what is resident services?
The plaza tent where tom nook gives his morning updates
Everything except RS, airport, and rivermouths. yes
and you and kick out a villager if u wanted too
It's a bit of a process and takes time but you can, kind of.
You can't just like ask that they move out
ya i kind of invited random villagers to my island without realizing
They ask to move out eventually but it does just take patience and time
The latest to move in won't ask to move out. A campsite villager can still randomly kick them though
Sorry I'm not sure what you mean by this. The roost?
There is nothing in the game called just root
no
I meant roost
how do i get him
.t brewster
•• Brewster & The Roost ••
https://cestislife.github.io/img/brewster.png
Thanks
They will respawn tomorrow, at one per day. Alternatively, if you have the ability to get Nook Miles Tickets (from inside Resident Services) then you can go to mystery islands and hit rocks for resources
o alr and is that also how you get the other fruits?
Mystery islands will provide you with your own fruit, a 'sister fruit' (that you will can always find on mystery tours), and coconuts. For any of the other fruits, you need to trade either on local or online play
You can't find the other fruits on mystery tours. Only your own and the sister fruit
oh so ima have to find someone to trade with
If you want them all, yes
alr thx for the help
is it possible to make 2 bridges this close together the space of the land would only be 2 spaces wide
ok so for game help, if i time travel back to earlier in my day and restart my island/progress then and then play and whatever, when i time travel forward to my current time, is it still going to count tomorrow irl time as my day 2?
Yes, day 2 is the 2nd day after you sync back to real time, time travel or no time travel. Depending on what you are following day 2 can mean different things, here is a summary of what you can unlock /what you can do on "day 2" depending on the progress you made before
https://chibisnorlax.github.io/acnhbeginners/walkthrough/#walkthrough
thank you!! <33
2 pieces wide as in the bridges spaces would be touching? No, if you want them to face each other directly you'll need a buffer time in between
how would i get a Bush ?? i need one for building 
Bushes are sold by leif
so then i should make it 4?
4 or 3 not that sure on that one currently, it would require testing/trial and error when placing it
when do they show up ? or is it random
this isnt technically game related but like what are some tips that could help me to fix the drift on the switch? 😭 its so so bad omg
Just search up some YouTube videos, there's plenty on it. Often it's as easy a blast of wd40
leifs stock refreshes each time he comes to your island but if you cant find what you want then you can 100% find it on nookazon if you have an online membership

Is it worth it to reset my island even after i only started 2 months ago?
I don't feel happy with my island for some reason

Oh
There is nothing you can't unlock and do on your island if you so wish
Oops sorry!
Is there a way I can make another bridge ? I don’t have the diy anymore
When Resident Services upgrades you can talk to Tom Nook to build more
when will it upgrade? srry im new to the game :3
After you have 5 animal villagers fully moved in
There's not exactly an specific date. Iirc during Spring or autumn can rain a lot
ohhh okay! 👍
How do you customize your villagers homes?
If you have the Happy Homes DLC, after completing 30 homes and all the facilities, you will be given the option in Resident Services
Are you for real???
Happy homes costs money huh?
It's part of a Nintendo Online package and/or you can purchase it separately but yes
•• Happy Home Paradise DLC Q&A's ••
What is a DLC?
A DLC stands for Downloadable Content. Happy Home Paradise (HHP) is extra content that expands on the existing game, Animal Crossing: New Horizons. It can be purchased for $24.99USD.
What is Happy Home Paradise?
HHP is an extension of the game Animal Crossing: New Horizons, where the player is able to work along side Lottie, Niko, and Wardell to customize unique and one of a kind Vacation Homes for visiting villagers. You also have a separate currency on this Island, called Poki, where you can purchase rare furniture items in the Paradise Planning Office. Also, techniques learned in HHP can be applied to your normal island.
What achievements are available as you design Vacation Homes?
For a list of Milestones please visit:
What are some changes from the original Happy Home Designer?
To see a list of all changes please visit:
It's not something you 'download' so much as once purchased, you'll get in-game prompts about talking to Tom or going to the airport and stuff like that
Thanks!
does anybody know if I sell this dormant volcano will I get the same exact amount as it says in the “ sell” box?
Yes, if you sell it directly to the Nooklings at Nook's cranny (and no ordinance boost is active on your island)
How do you assess fossils ? (I heard someone say you can assess them and they’ll sell for more) also, why won’t blathers take my fossils? Do I have to give him different ones? (And if so how because I’ve never got different ones before)
If you have dug up fossils, you can take them to Blathers in the museum and say 'assess fossils'. They will sell for more but he'll only take them if they're new - if they are duplicates of something he's had before, he won't take them. Finding different ones is just pure chance of what you dig up for the day
Do they look different ? Or do you just take it to blathers hoping it’s different ?
All fossils will look the same before they're assessed (the blue circle with a shell shape). Afterwards, they all 'look the same' in your inventory as the skull thing with a bone, but if you scroll over them then it'll tell you different names. You have no idea what you've collected until they've been assessed
Ohhhhhh thank you
Okay I need help as soon as possible as I only have 1.5 hours. My mother (who is waaay devoted to animal crossing) has accidently told one of her favourite characters it was okay for them to leave. (She was upset that they didn't come to her birthday party, she even wrote them a letter begging them to stay, she's absolutely devastated and is crying right now because she doesn't want the character to leave) is there a way I can save her character and stop them from leaving? I have villagers I'd sacrifice for her to have this character and that's saying something because I had the same characters for over a year before she got the game.
Please help me save the character! I know you can get amiibo cards but will that character keep the same friendship level if it comes from a card? Can I get it on my island??
Any help is very appreciated
If you can get a villager into boxes and then moved out so you have an empty plot, and then your mother's game has the character in boxes (going forward a day), you would be able to adopt her villager to your island
Is the villager already in boxes?
It'd then be some convoluted steps but she'd be able to then adopt that villager back
Yes already in boxes
Okay then don't go forward a day 😂
It's 10pm here and she doesn't timeskip
Amiibos are like a 'reset' for the character. They will not have the same friendship level
If it's already in boxes, then you adopting the villager so that you can move it out and she can take it back is the only way
It would be a challenge to have that villager get into boxes on your island though as they would be your last 'move in' and so it would mean you'd have to have someone else leave and then someone else arrive so that they can have a leave thought bubble (or use an amiibo to shift your mother's character back into boxes when she has an empty plot to then adopt them back)
A friend showed me this, will this work?
That only works when the villager isn't yet in boxes
@livid trail I don't know about the availabilities (I know they said it was 10pm, mother doesn't timeskip, the game resets at 5am, etc.) but could be possible to have a middleman hold the character if @twilit hamlet went to #request-a-middleman🛎️🙋♀️ ? Then adopt the villager back to the empty plot?
They will have to check directly with the middleman service but that would work. The middleman still needs to kick out the villager somehow
wdym no ordinance boost?
There’s the bell boom ordinance you can have on your island that can help you earn more bells. But things also cost more too
If you don’t have the ordinance active then don’t worry about it /npa
Then it’ll be the same as the pic
What I seem to be hearing is that you’re concerned if the app is accurate or not? I’ve used it before and it’s solid. But if that’s your concern I can also recommend https://catalogue.ac as everything there is based on datamined info /nf
ohh okay i see thank you!!
Any simple guide to kickstart your island restart?
how can i carry more money than 100k?
You can pick up more than 100k, it just fills your other inventory slots where your tools/items/etc. goes
At the beginning you have 20 slots, then 30, and then after you hit 3* you can carry 40 items max
and how can i carry more without it going in my inventory?
You can't. That is the max
okay thx
Amiibo FAQ
• ** How do I get an Amiibo villager to move into my island?**
You must invite an Amiibo villager and craft them their requested item 3 times in order for them to agree to move in. It doesn't need to be 3 consecutive days, just 3 days total.
• What if I have an open plot?
Amiibos still need to be invited 3 separate times, even if you have an empty plot.
• Can I choose who the Amiibo villager kicks out?
Yes, just make sure you've spoken to that villager at least once and their house isn't currently being relocated.
You need to unlock KK and "finish" the story. After the credits, you can use Amiibos. Tom will let you know when
You don't need 3 stars to scan amiibos. The option becomes available at the ABD machine after your 6th villager has moved in. And you can also scan them at Harv's island
How do i get my 3rd villager on my island, i invited one 2 days ago and they havent shown up
Villagers 3-5 will move in after you have progress enough in the story. Tom Nook will give you house plots for them (it should start after Nook's cranny is built)
The shop?
Yes
Ahh ok
hi ^^ so i saw how people send ".is" to #494386287953051658 so i tried it but it didn´t work .. can anybody help me??
You should be able to type the .is and then island name then the name of your island and the bot should remember, so like “ .is island name velaris” would be mine and it would remember my island name. then send your island fruit. Then send your character name etc.. it can’t all be posted in one go if that makes sense. I’d basically copy what the last person put that it worked for them except with your information and continue from there for each category
And just putting .Is would show everything the bot has remembered for you
okay thanks ^^

Yes once you upgrade Resident's Services from a tent to a building.
Everything except river mouths, airport, and resident's center can be moved.
Thank you
How do you add friends on the nitendo switch
you can add friends by going to your account at the top left of the home screen and then pressing "users you've played with" or "search with friend code". the "users you've played with" option will only work if you played together with online play but you don't have to type in their friend code like you do with the other option :)
i hope that made sense 😭😭
Omg thank you so much. I found it!
If I have someone at my campground and I go build a house does it automatically sell the house to the camper or can I go hunting on islands for someone ?

hey, could someone help me? i’m trying to use the island transfer tool but i get a connection error screen on the switch where i want to move my island to, what can i do?

just the screen with resetti saying it’s a connection error
.t transfer try this out and if that doesn’t work i dm’d you an article for correcting the issue. if you’re signed into the same nintendo account on both devices it sounds like it may cause some problems
How to move your Animal Crossing: New Horizons island to a different Nintendo Switch
• 1. Download the Animal Crossing: New Horizons Island Transfer Tool from the eShop on both Nintendo Switches.
• 2. Make sure Animal Crossing: New Horizons is updated to the latest version on both consoles.
• 3. Launch the Island Transfer Tool on both consoles and follow the on-screen instructions.
• 4. Once the transfer finishes, launch the game on the new Switch.
• 5. When asked about using existing resident data, select “Existing data.”
• 6. Select the villager name that matches the villager you were playing as on the previous Switch. Make sure it matches up with the Switch user account you were using on the previous Switch for that character.
• 7. If you brought over more than one character in the save transfer, make sure that people’s characters match the Switch user account when logging in. They’ll only need to do this the first time they sign into the new Switch for the first time.
guys i reset my island and i had someone help me move my stuff. i started with my old tools and everything and did some time traveling. i now have the bridge quest before i got the flimsy axe recipe and i cant get wood bc i ran out using my old supply for the shop. someone please help i dont want to have to restart again 😦
is it because i got the shop before doing the bug quest?
i cant donate creatures
what are your options when you talk to Tom Nook?
What should i do, about my home, im good
Have you talked to him with a bug/fish in your pockets?
Hi guys can anyone help me? I’ve only been playing for about 10 days so I’m fairly new but I’m struggling to get a 3 star island, I’ve cleared all my weeds and planted flowers but I don’t know what else I can do to raise it
furniture!
Hi everyone! I bought this game on a whim along with some amiibo cards. I was scrolling through this thread to find out how to use them and just wanted confirmation. So in order to use the cards you have to complete the game first?
Not complete the game - just progress through the initial intro. This game is never truly complete really. You can use the ABD to scan amiibos once your 6th villager moves into your island from the campsite
Thank you Johnny! I appreciate it!
Lol, you're welcome. If you need help getting to that point we are always here 
Perfect! You'll definitely see me on the thread again at some point 
can i adopt a sanrio villager from someone else?
.t sanriovillagers 
Sanrio villagers are not available for adoption from other players through legitimate means, and require Amiibo cards to obtain. Do not offer to trade or ask to adopt these villagers.

Noted
I am having trouble getting people to my island to trade and going to people's islands to trade. Any advice?
Can you trade trees in game or do I need to wait
if ur looking for people to trade with u can check out our many trade channels for potential trades such as #diy-trade for example
you can but you need to be best friends to plant tree at someone's island
Alright
Yes I have done that but I need to meet with them to trade @tranquil arrow
you're having trouble connecting ?
Yes it keeps saying there isn't any islands to connect to even though they gave me a dodo code
@smoky rapids
Same happened when they tried to connect.to me
did they send you an image or the code or did they type it ?
Type it
Ues
I suggest sending a picture to avoid any mistyping, but if you are both connecting to the internet, and you get Orville saying there isn't an island, instead of a connection error, you might be setting the menus wrong
How do I fix?
Can you make Dodo codes locally? Is there a chance the other person is doing the wrong menus?
Maybe they did say they were new
hi all, random question. is there a way to select a 'prebuilt' island with all homes/etc in place? or do you have to deisgn your own from scratch?
No, there are no options to prebuild it. It is all your placement of everything. You can move buildings later, just not the airport or resident services
thank you
Hi everyone!
I wanted to know, it's been 4 times now while visiting mystery islands and I don't meet any villager, and I don't understand why... I have to have a free plot on my island for villagers to appear on my island ? because I have one but I haven't put it yet.
You have to place it first
Okay , and once it placef Do I need to hurry ?
It may autofill by 5AM tomorrow
Aw shit
Then I'll place it tommorow cause rn I dont have the time
thanks for the answer ! :)

how do i get other flower hybrids in HHP? it says i need to have them on my island but i have stuff like black tulips unlocked and I've never had those

•• FAQ: Unlocking Happy Home Paradise ••
To unlock the Happy Home Paradise DLC after purchase, you must
• Upgrade your tent to a house.

Tom Nook will then phone in to introduce you to Lottie to start the beginning sequences of the DLC. You may need to wait for a new day to roll over to get this cutscene.
If I'm not mistaken they are unlocked with Leif's classes in the school? It is bugs that you need to have in your inventory to put on designs
I've had the leif cutscene already
unless there's a second one
I have some hybrids, but not all of them
and i have hybrids I've never even had on my island
I remember that there was two but I might be wrong - not as familiar with the hybrids in hhp. I believe there is two classes he does with that
that makes sense, I'll keep playing
but I'm almost at 30 homes LOL i hope it doesn't take too long
What if ive done all this and it just, hasnt happened lol
Have you downloaded / bought HHP
Yeah did it when i got the game
thank you so much!

How do you tell between a genuine/real and fake Jolly Redd painting/item? You have the option to get “closer looks” at the items, but I don’t know if your supposed to look for something specific or if it’s just a cool little feature and there’s a 50/50 chance between getting a real and fake item.

• 50% 1 Real
• 30% 2 Real
• 10% 3 Real

ok it's full ok, so no problem there, when did you upgrade the resident services ?
Yestorday
as in it's only finished since today ?
It finished yestorday i should say
Yeah, i logged in yestorday and it was finished, than thismorning and it wasnt there
Should i try reinstalling like other games ive played?
Yeah, its how you get the tools right?
no, it's when you learn to customize
try getting a wooden wardrobe and going to the workshop station inside the resident services
Can you get villagers on kappin’ tours?
I figured, thank you
Look it up on Google
guys how does time traveling work? is it dangerous or can it ruin my island somehow?
i’m on my first week and buildings are taking one whole day to get ready
How long can stuff stay dropped on the ground before it disappears? I’ve been using this due to lack of storage lol
It is not dangerous and is minimal in what it affects. Turnips will spoil going back a day or forward a week - flowers and weeds will grow
https://chibisnorlax.github.io/acnhfaq/tt/
here's for the details, if you need all the consequences 
Nothing will disappear until you pick it up
forever
thank you so much 💗
Hi peeps! Can you still get the sanrio items somehow? I just started playing and they're so cute
ℹ️ Sanrio items are unlocked for order in Nook Shopping (promotion tab) by scanning the corresponding Amiibo, either at the Nook Stop for the campsite or at Photopia (Harv's Island)
❌ You cannot touch-trade / catalog Sanrio items from other players

✅ You can use them to stage rooms at Photopia (Harv's Island) if you have touched them even if you do not have the amiibo
hello people! what is the easiest way to get Kiki to move to my island? 👀 I have a black cat named Kiki in real life and would be really nice to get her to live with me :3
All villagers are random chance on Nook Mile Islands or you can trade for a specific one. Amiibos are the quickest way that do not involve trading. Villager hunting can take a while and you need many NMT
hmm, what do you mean by trading?
You can trade villagers after you have 6 living on your island. IF you have a totally empty plot that does not say sold, and someone else has a villager in boxes ready to move out, you can travel to their island and talk to said villager, who will ask to move onto your island. You need Online for this
ahhhh, nice, thanks!

Hey!! I have Celest on my island but I don’t see any stars shooting across the sky?
if Isabelle didn't announce anything then you have a light meteor shower with only a few stars from time to time
•• Meteor Shower & Shooting Star Spawns ••
• Shooting stars only happen between 7 pm and 4 am. There are two main types:
• Heavy meteor showers: These are usually announced by Isabelle and discussed by villagers, with stars shooting in groups of 5 to 8 roughly every minute or so during the whole night. These are pretty rare, averaging around 10 per year.
• Light meteor showers: Only a handful of 5-star groups shoot each hour, if said hour has a clear sky. These average between 5-10 per month.
• Note that weather patterns use a seed and are set in stone for your island, including when the shooting stars will appear, to the second. You can use Ninji's MeteoNook app (https://wuffs.org/acnh/weather/) to help determine your seed and get your weather and shooting stars forecast for your island.
How do I do paths like this ? Like that show up on my map? Do I have to place all 10 houses first ?
You will unlock that ability once you get 3 stars and kk performs 😃
Hey I have a question, I'm thinking about resting my island now that I've gotten to 5 stars but I bought that vacation home add on where you decorate villagers houses. Would that stay when I reset my island?

Do shells respawn on NMT islands?
Do my voided villagers only show up at my friend's campsite if I have the online subscription?
I don't think they do, never saw them respawn
Thanks. I didn't think so, but I was willing to do it if it meant I didn't have to undo all the work on one of my beaches.
what if you invite a villager that you already have
Not possible, if you amiibo scan them I believe they say a line about already being on the island or other. 2 can't exist in the same instance
If you mean to your campsite/to live on your island or similar
It wouldn't work It's just a limitation of the game. I'm not sure what they would say but you can't have two of the same on your island at a time
okayy well tysm!!

How does one add another resident to your island? Not like an animal villager, but another active player.
I know only the main person can be island representative, but I wanna add my mom to my island so we can play together and I can't figure out how
Make a new profile on your switch and start the game with that profile rather than yours
Wait is it really just that?? Nice
Yep! On a new profile u go through the whole intro again but it's the same island

do you get the able sisters after the campsite or is just random?
•• FAQ: Unlocking the Able Sisters (Tailors/Clothing Shop) ••
You must buy at least one item from Mabel’s pop-up stand in Resident Services on two separate visits on your own island. Mabel will mention building the shop on her next (third) visit.
NOTE: You do not need to spend 5,000 bells as some sources say. You just have to buy at least one item during each of Mabel’s visits.
ah ok thank u!
You can also collect heaps and do DIY events where players come learn diys on your island in exchange for something you'd like. ☺️ e.g. come learn diys, please tip me some bells. Etc ☺️
You could also keep them as tips for other players or give them to players who host diy events.
So how many residents can one have. I keep hearing 10 but is that including yourself or what?
10 animals, 8 humans total
I have myself and 9 Villagers so can I technically get another then
Yes. 10 animals. so if you are at 9 animals you can place one more plot
Thank you :)
So I recently got ANCH and was thinking about getting the DLC, I was wondering if the catalogue(for the builds) was your own catalogue or just the game catalogue?
It's a bit of a mix, at the start you get what the villager unlocks, so you are a bit limited, the more villagers you do, the more you unlock, after you get access to the diys you crafted and finally your own catalogue, still while unlocking items vith the villagers you work for
Alrighty, thanks for the help
I want to move out a villager.
I used the time travel method posted on here, forward 15 days, and found a bubble over a villager I wanted to keep. Cancelled out...
Time travelled one more day, there are no bubbles.
Can I talk to my villagers / buy things etc then keep time travelling forward to find a bubble? Or do you literally need to cancel straight out of the fake and time travel straight away?
You can talk to your villagers normally. The no-talking part is to save time
Thanks! I just don't want to waste the day before travelling 😅
Is there any way I could get some pears or cherry trees? Or is it just random island I have to visit?
Fruits that are not your own and sister fruit (one other that you can rarely obtain from mystery islands), can only be gotten from other players - via trade.
FAQ: Fruits

• What is my native fruit? - This is the fruit that will be on your trees when you first start the game. Your native fruit can also be bought from Nooks Cranny.
• What is my "sister fruit"? - This is the fruit that you find on a mystery island called "rare fruit island". This fruit can be sold for more than the native fruit at Nooks Cranny.
• What fruit does my Mom give? - Your mom will mail you a fruit. This can either be a new fruit that you have not obtained yet or a random one.
• How do I get the rest of the fruits? - You will only be able to obtain 2-3 fruits by yourself. To get the rest of the fruits you need to trade with other people. This can be done with your friends or with people in #fruit-vegetable-trade!
• Coconuts and bamboo are available through mystery islands!

That would be why, then. You can only kick someone out when you have ten because you're at the max. If you don't have six, then they expect you to build a new plot for them by talking to Tom
dammit
That would be when you reach three stars/KK performs
The covered counter is a houseware furniture item in Animal Crossing: New Horizons introduced in the 2.0 Free Update. The item's top surface can be used to place smaller items, such as miscellaneous furniture.
The covered counter can be obtained from either Nook's Cranny for 17,000 Bells or the Paradise Planning office for 15,300 Poki. The ite...

guys, it's been 2 years I'm friend with Bonbon on my island, I gave her wrapped gifts more than once per week, talk to her everyday, and Katrina tells me "it is certain that you two are bound together by the strongest of bond" when asking about my friendship with her so, I guess I should be maxed by a very long time with her.
Thing is I never get her picture, in fact I never got a picture from any of my villagers even tough more than one should be maxxed by now, why I can't get them?
Are you giving gifts worth at least 750 bells?
I didn't knew value had something to do with it, but I gave them smoothies so, I guess 400 x2 yeah, and always with wrapping papers so
Like this one? They sell for 300 bells and afaik you can't stack them (or maybe I'm misremembering) even though that would only make them 600bells. The gift has to be at least 750bells to have a chance at a photo https://catalogue.ac/i/13995
oooooh I tough value or original items might be higher... what could be suggested?
2 wrapped non-native fruit/ 3 coconuts or vegetables would be the easier
oh yeah I can wrap more than one, alright thanks
I was wondering if Tom Nook was apart of the tribe? He seems to act like one of God's Chosen people. Thanks!

It's 8 of each
(at least I think it is? I feel like I have definitely had more than eight combined before)
New to ACNH, so how do you go about getting different islands for mystery islands? I have spent so many nook miles just to be taken to the same three. I’m trying to get new things like fruit and flowers for my island but I’m having no luck. Any tips would appreciated!
The mystery islands are pretty random but don’t give up its all about luck
What is the best way to progress in the game? I don’t have any other people I know that play, so there isn’t any friends. I just want to play it to its full potential and don’t know where to start

i have some used amiibo cards i was wanting to give to my friend - the villagers on the amiibo cards have already been scanned into my island. will it work for another players switch despite already being used?

So i found rex ( the lion ) on a island how do I know if he is coming to my island and when do they come?
did you talk to him and you got a dialog inviting him to come ?
Yeah
at least I think so
if you did they will come, I imagine you're at the start, they will come to the houses you have to build 
Yeah, I am at the start still, this is the first time I travel to an island with a nook miles ticket
is there a way to get back sold items?
You’ll have to like buy them back
i got a turban from gulliver and sold it by mistake 😭
Oh no you can’t get that back from buying it you can’t
Unless it’s in Tommy and Timmy's shop you can’t get it back
i think it’s voided
How do I build houses so I can get rex. Do you live here because I already invited him to my island
you need to progress ! build nooks cranny notably and the museum
if you ever wonder don't forget to ask tom nook "what should I do"
i’m getting nooks cranny built I just need to get the wood and then 15 more iron

are they done with big animal crossing updates? i thought i read that somewhere
Yes
wow that’s sad 😭
How often does Redd visit? I haven't been playing very long (about 2.5 months) but he's never been to my island.
I think it's random but you can always visit him at Harv's Island if you donated 100,000 to build his shop
Thank you!
You're very welcome, let me know if you need his or any items and I'll get them for you.
is there a way to check when your island was last backed up using NSO without launching the game on the switch
^ if you have a confident answer to this question and it has not already been answered please reply with ping on since I'm not active here
May I ask the purpose? Afaik it's not possible
I’ve been playing for about a month now. I feel like I am progressing well, but after reading through these threads I feel like I am so far behind. I don’t want to miss something I am suppose to be doing. For clarification on how far I am, the clothing store is being built on my island now.
If you have the Resident Services upgraded as a building, you should have access to most of the features. The tailors shop can be unlocked independently, so it doesn't really tell us at which point of the story you are
Ahh okay. Yes my resident services is a upgraded building
Was there anything in specific you feel far behind on?
i made Zipper a vacation home today
will he send me a photo of him in the mail?
Could I hang garland outside ? Or it’s only for indoors?
Also I see yard guides in a group I’m in are those just fit the aesthetic type things or do they make the villagers happier?
i believe the best way to get pictures of residents is to gift them the “iron wall lamp” (make sure to wrap it, wrapping is found in nook’s cranny) after doing this process for 3 days he should give you the picture!
oh Zipper is um 😔 nevermind
thank you
oh isnt he a resident? im sorry for pinging u then :/
oh that guy, yeah sorry no idea :(
its ok 👍
Correct
thank you
Wall and ceiling items can only be placed indoors.
Yard guides are just for layout ideas
i'm getting a little frustrated with something. i just unlocked the island designer app, and wanted to move my house to a place where i can put it between two waterfalls. but no matter what i do, or how i move it, it's always uneven, never right in the middle how i want it. it's always too far left or right. is this impossible to avoid?
.t sizes - plan accordingly to your house size and maybe place custom designs con the grass to guide you place it

I've had Leif visit once and then Nat
how do i get the island designer app
Get KK to do his first concert by getting a 3 star island
•• Island Rating ••
• You unlock K.K. Slider concerts and the Island Designer app (terraforming) once you achieve your first 3-star rating.
• You obtain the Golden Watering Can DIY once you achieve your first 5-star rating. Also, lilies-of-the-valley can spawn as long as your island keeps its 5-star rating!
•• How do I get a 3- or 5-star rating? ••
• The basic idea is to fill your island with plants and furniture, as Isabelle usually suggests. So if she says to add flowers, do it - or at least, wait for them to be fully bloomed (to get the max points from them) ; Same thing if she hints at adding furniture.

What is a dream bell exchange ticket?
When you tell a villager who wants to move out not to when is the next time someone else will ask to move out?
Minimum of 5 days, but any random day after that
Thanks 👍
It’s like a reward from Luna for dreaming. You can sell it to nook’s cranny for 5000 bells each
How can I get a bridge? I really need one cuz like I misplaced the one Tom nook gave me and now these villagers finna be held hostage on this tiny island part
How many villagers do you have?
Idk if they’re actually MINE but they live here now— Bertha, Rodeo, Tutu, (Diva and Lymen the ones that came w the island)
Bertha, Rodeo and tutu are the ones that are gonna move in
You need an upgraded resident services then you can talk to tom nook about infrastructure which will add bridges and inclines
.t rsupgrade 
How to upgrade Resident Services into a building
• You need at least 5 villagers to be fully moved onto your island.
• Unlock the museum (can either be the tent or the upgraded building).
To unlock the museum, give 5 different critters (bugs, fish, or sea creature) to Tom Nook.
• If both of these are met, Tom Nook will announce that Resident Services will be closed the following day for construction. The day after that you’ll have the building! (You can time travel to make this process quicker.)
Okay okay! How do I time travel?-
Change the time on your switch. In the system settings
I have both of those but the villagers haven’t moved yet but I’m pretty pos they come tomorrow
What time does animal crossing refresh? Like 12 am?
You can sync back to real time after. Just make sure you save between time travels
Yeah they move in one at a time
Okay thanks!
Can someone help me where can i get like the carrot seeds and the tomatoes and stuff?
Vegetable starts can be bought from Leif, random selection that changes every week
You can also trade for the vegetables from someone else and plant them to grow more
thank you!!

Why would people sit in the same place in my room
Wdym?
Residents on the floor
You mean villagers visiting your house?
Yea
When a villager is in boxes does it take 15 or 14 days for another villager to ask to move out?
Or does it take the next day from after they moved out?
In boxes moving in. 15 days or more
Is it the same for when they move out? If I timeskip 15 days from then will someone else ask to move out?
Well if they just asked to move out and you timeskip 15 days they’ll be in boxes. No villager will ask to leave if you have an empty plot, so you have to find a new villager for that plot then wait for them to fully moved in then you can timeskip 15 days and someone might ask to leave. Your latest villager will not ask to leave
Hi there! My game keeps crashing for some reason. I'm getting error code 2002-2058. Online it's saying to clear the cache, but I just see the "reset the cache" option, and that says it would delete my passwords and such. Any tips?
Did you try just restarting your console? Or turning it off completely and wait 5 minutes before turning it on again
I restarted it. If it does it again, I'll turn it off for five minutes completely.
Yes
If the villager knocked on your door while you are inside then they will only stay in the main room. Then if you are outside and a villager approached you to hangout in your house then they will follow you in all the rooms of your house.
Hi can anyone help me get some bells, trying to pay off my final loan 😢
They ask to, and we go upstairs
.t bells 
How to MAKE BELLS, the SIMPLE Way:
- Play the stalk market: buy turnips at a low price and sell them high.
- Dive and catch sea creatures to sell back to Nook's Cranny.
- Grow stuff (fruits, flowers, pumpkins, etc) and sell to Nook's Cranny.
- If you have NSO (Nintendo Switch Online), trade with other players by visiting the trade channels in this server and seeing where to sell your services or goods!
That’s right. If they asked first they will follow you anywhere you go
But they sit in the same spot, is it the furniture
It’s random
same exact*
It’s probably the furniture
Hi, still having issues with my game crashing after waiting five minutes. The farthest it gets is after Isabelle's announcement.
