New Horizons F.A.Q. – Ask Questions Here!

Does anyone know if it's possible to time travel and get the Spooky Tree DIY recipe early? I need to make a lot of them for several islands and I'd love to get a head start. I see they and the recipe are for sale on Nookazon but I don't feel energetic enough to deal with Nookazon bidding wars at the moment. But I don't want to time travel that far ahead unless it's obtainable. TIA!

I time traveled and found the recipe on the first day of October, thanks to crafting-goddess Piper!
 
im curious about lily of the valley,
i know they are achieved when you get a 5 star island. im just wondering if people use them for their islands as decor and such ? like other flowers ? can you even pick them up ?
I really like decorating with Lily of the Valley by putting them on dirt paths or beaches. Because you can never trample or ruin a Lily, theyre really pretty for decorating spots that you run through often.

When you invite an amiibo villager onto your island, do they display the items you craft for them in their houses?
I didn’t see an answer for this, so, no they don’t display the items! Amiibo villagers always move in with all original items. (Kinda annoying that the items I craft for them go straight into a void, especially when I used a stack of 30 Wood to make a Log Bed for them lol)

ohhh thank you. i think im going to dry and decorate with them soon !
 
There is a new item on the recent update that I can’t quite find the name of. From what I can remember, It’s a plate of some cake or brownie looking dessert. Does anyone have the name?
 
Do villagers still show past letters you’ve sent them to your friends? For example, when I turn my GameCube Animal Crossing game on, a villager that moved to my town from my cousin’s way way back might show me a letter my cousin had written her (like 20 years ago hahaha).

They also used to show letters to me that I’d sent them long ago and forgotten about. Do they ever do that in NH?

Maybe the feature was removed because of online play?

I personally have not had any letters shown to me, but that doesn’t mean it doesn’t happen. Maybe it’s less frequent.

EDIT: I’ve looked, and apparently the feature was removed in New Horizons. I wasn’t a fan of this feature, so I’m happy about it’s removal.

Thanks! Good to know. I wondered why they never showed me any letters.

Are villagers' voices a higher or lower pitch based on their species? This might just be me, but I swear Pinky's voice sounds different than the other peppies I've had. And after having Megan as my only normal for such a long time, Molly's voice seems higher-pitched.

I think it might be based on their heights and species.
My island is full of short villagers and all their voices are higher-pitched.

I had Teddy on my island before he moved and his voice was deeper than Genji's.
 
Is time travelling bad?
Thats a question with no answer

It can be something you enjoy, or it can be something that takes the fun out of the game for you.

Personally, for my own play of the game, I'm against time travel unless it's for a specific purpose. Such as if I want to change multiple villagers via amiibo, or if I'm doing a huge terraforming job.
While time travelling I will avoid doing such things as getting wood, hitting rocks, or interacting with my villagers. That way the only thing I changed via time travel is the task I wanted. And once I'm done I set the clock back to today's date.

Others might like to time travel to keep their island in a specific season. Or to get a bug they missed out on. Or they simply don't enjoy playing the game outside of their daily tasks so want to skip and do them again.

Your views on time travel is something you have to work out on your own.
 
Is time travelling bad?

no it isn’t. Some people don’t like it and feel it spoils the game for them by making them race through things and not appreciate them But other people feel time travel gives them freedom and flexibility to truly play the game in a way that suits their style and time commitments.

neither way of playing is bad.
