things to do when bored?

[Bella8236]

hey guys! i've been playing ac for a while now and i've accomplished a lot of the major goals (fully unlocked house, fully unlocked main street, have almost all of my dreamies, lots of hybrids, etc) so sometimes i get kinda bored while playing!

what kinds of things do you guys do in-game to keep yourself occupied?

 

[N a t]

Talk to my villagers, try to decorate their houses via gifts in the mail, unlock pwp's, build those pwp's, improve the town appearance, and design clothes.

 

[Bella8236]

good ideas! i'm trying to unlock pwps now but its taking forever ;____; ive done the swimming thing for probably like 2-3 hours total and ive only gotten 3 pwps from it

Do you have an extra player? Last year I started letting my side players out to play after the mayor did her checks.
It's fun not been the mayor and playing with the villagers. The side players can talk with the villagers or take off to the island to suntan and do tours. It's relaxing playing as a side player.

Do you plan on completing your badges? That's something you can do with your mayor. It should keep you busy.
A lot of CT players will go on tours with you. Win first place with bonus medals can rack up a lot of medals in one night.

I like to go to my island and do tours. I choose my favorites from that day's list and set goals for myself. Like if I'm supposed to catch 3 fish to earn medals, I challenge myself to catch 10 or more. It makes it more fun.

I usually write some letters, rearrange furniture and outside flowers and pathways, design some clothing, spam talk all the villagers, go fishing and hunting on the island, visit animal crossing friends, go on tours, time travel to get hybrids faster, try to get all your dreamies/favourite animal crossing villagers, clean out the closet/lockers, dig for fossils, buy and trade on tbt <3

I like to make outfits, re-landscape my town, change up the pwps, work on getting more badges, and try to earn lots of bells when I'm bored :3 There's a lot more to do, though, now that I have all four save files filled. You might try making another character.

I work heavily on collecting PWP's (using a technique that takes up time), hybrids, cycling, and just improving my town! Since it's winter, I'm currently trying to perfect my town before spring

 

[ZebraQueen]

In those time I usually go fishing on the sea or write a quote on the board or write a paragraph to send to my animals

 

[smileorange]

I love growing hybrids! Also playing around with the colours of the bushes is fun.

When I'm bored I'll go and work part-time at Brewster's.

 

[Crash]

i usually work on landscaping, write letters to villagers/talk to villagers, go to the island, work on decorating my house(s), do the swimming trick to unlock more PWP's, look for dream towns on tumblr to visit... c:​

 

[Kittyinpink87]

i don't know , i mostly just talk to all the villagers and check the stores .

 

[helloxcutiee]

I just landscape honestly. Landscaping takes up most of my time anyway, around 2-3 hours.

Oh, and go to the dream suite to visit other towns for inspiration.

 

[Bella8236]

these are all really good ideas!! thank you guys so much!

the two things im working on most right now are landscaping and unlocking pwps but i might start a new character sometime soon too!! it would give me more space for designs and i could decorate their rooms <3________<3

I've had my main town, Bluebell, since release day. I fell into a slump and didn't play for a long time after Maple moved, but I picked up the pace and I made a second character for my boyfriend and am working on paying off and decorating his house, as well as landscaping and solidifying my final villager lineup/placements. I visited my town's old dream and saw my villagers and counted, and I believe I have cycled enough to get Bunnie and Molly back, so I'm super excited for what is going to come in the future for my town!
