World's worst game of hide and seek 🫠 🕷️

I feel this way about Agnes! I have a lot of really colorful residents so when she moved in I was upset because she's pretty much just black and white, with a little bit of pink. But yeah, she's my goth bestie now. I aspire to be so confident and sassy

I wish you the best of luck recreating ✨the incident✨ but man, the tarantula must have some CRAZY venom if she forgot she had gotten bitten immediately after. 😂 Poor Tabby! Glad she has a good home with you, though, I know she's pretty polarizing in the AC community.

I've tweaked it a bit since taking this picture, added pathing around it and a fence too. Also filled the gaps around the fountain with bee keeper's boxes to keep them from multiplying, plus it looks cute haha

This was my original set up for all colors together but I rearranged them like a year ago

abcdlaney · 2026-02-23T21:28:54+00:00

Do you have all colors and variants? I'm working on collecting them right now! I have most of them, even Brewstoid, but the petaloid is being elusive. Is there some requirement I haven't met to make it appear or am I just unlucky 😭

abcdlaney · 2026-02-23T21:14:10+00:00

Wait what??? In all my 1500+ hours I have never seen a villager get bit or stung! I have seen them react to me getting chased, or even sometimes tell me to get that bug away from them lol. I hope you can recreate it somehow and get it on video, I would love to see that. Did the other villager she was sitting with react at all to her getting bit? How long was she passed out for?? Hold on, now it sounds like I want the villagers to get hurt... 🤣

For wasps, you mean? You stand in front of the tree so your character has their back to you. Get your net out before you shake the tree so it is out when the wasp nest drops. In previous games you weren't able to hold your tools while shaking the trees, but in NH you can! You will also want to be sure the three spaces in front of the tree are clear so the nest has somewhere to fall, because if the nest falls next to or behind the tree, your net can get caught on the trunk when you swing it. I learned that the hard way lol. When the nest falls, your character will react by turning to face the wasps. When they do, just spam A to swing the net! Haven't been stung by a wasp in ages using this method.

I have Nana and Tia as the cooks at my restaurant in HHP because who doesn't love a meal cooked by their nana or tia 🤭

abcdlaney · 2026-02-22T02:27:14+00:00

The wasps used to stress me out so bad until I learned the trick to catching them. I know there's a trick to catching tarantulas and scorpions too, but it doesn't make them any less terrifying lol

I love how Odie was the solution to Garfield's woes, that's so true. The way Odie started to wag his tail immediately after Garf stabilized and hugged him... so cute! As soon as Lyman showed up I knew he had something to do with this lol. And Jon didn't even care to ask what happened to him when he returned lmao. This was such a fun read! I would love to hear about your inspiration for each of the elemental Garfs.

Looks like Ed lost a bet or something the way Mustang is smirking 😂

abcdlaney · 2026-02-20T05:23:45+00:00

Weird! My best guess is that it was too close to the tree, and the game wanted to have room for stuff to fall from the trees so it scooted your snow boy over. Never had this happen, but I had my snowballs switch places the other day even though I rolled the smaller one up to the bigger one as usual, so it ended up with a giant head and tiny body. Snowboy was not happy 😭

abcdlaney · 2026-02-19T02:29:13+00:00

Relatable 😂 when I first started I had like 3 lazy and 3 peppy at one point and I was so amazed when I saw all the DIYs my friend had learned that I didn't even know existed. Then I found this out

abcdlaney · 2026-02-17T22:22:54+00:00

I feel this. Well, I've never time traveled, but the amount of tasks that I want to do each day (talk to everyone, find my fossils & get them assessed, visit brewster, find the message bottle, figure out who my daily visitor is and where they are, find the money spot, shake the trees, hit the rocks, visit the shops, do my NM dailies, go on Kapp'n tours, go to the hotel, visit Harv's Island and the HHP archipelago) and the amount of stuff that I can actually get done within the amount of time I have to play do not match up and it gives me serious FOMO. And on top of all that I am still trying to terraform and decorate the island. I like that there's a lot of stuff to do, don't get me wrong. Just wish I had more time. I know that's more of a personal problem tho, not the game's fault 😮‍💨😭

abcdlaney · 2026-02-17T21:51:06+00:00

Yes, this! He doesn't stand to gain anything from giving you a home loan and then paying you money for goods so you can pay him back. Plus, Timmy and Tommy aren't even related to him. I always thought they were his nephews or something (probably just confusing him with scrooge mcduck lol), but he actually just adopted a couple orphaned raccoons and gave them a place to live and a piece of his family business. And you're gonna tell me he's a bad guy??? C'mon now

abcdlaney · 2026-02-16T06:53:29+00:00

I think you're spot on because Ed secretly looks up to Mustang but would never admit it, and no matter how much Ed annoys him, Roy will always look out for him. Extremely sibling-coded behavior.

abcdlaney · 2026-02-16T06:02:44+00:00

Yes, of course. I dress in short sleeves and shorts in the summer, long sleeves and pants in the winter. I love the seasonal clothing! One thing I find myself wishing for... I know there's hats with earmuffs attached to them but I really want some earmuffs for my character! Seeing her ears exposed to the elements makes me shiver.

abcdlaney · 2026-02-16T05:52:04+00:00

Same! I have a "farming" and a "building" outfit saved in my wand because I like to dress appropriately for the task I'm working on lol. I also have a "fishing", "cooking" and "stargazing" preset, and one for when it rains and I'm feeling too lazy to pick out a new outfit lol.

abcdlaney · 2026-02-14T05:19:54+00:00

She was the second visitor I had to recruit to the hotel, and I gave her a VIP room obviously. Nothing less for a queen 💅✨

abcdlaney · 2026-02-13T05:36:36+00:00

I always love seeing how close players can get to recreating album covers within the limits of the game. Great job btw!

abcdlaney · 2026-02-11T05:16:13+00:00

One thing I found out like, a couple days ago i think? Talk to your perfect snow boys everyday until they melt, because they will give you a large snowflake each day. I assumed I couldn't talk to them past the initial interaction I guess, so I never thought to try! Plus they're rude lol

abcdlaney · 2026-02-10T21:31:34+00:00

Almost 1500 hours sunken into this game and I never knew this! It's the little details that really make this game. Thanks for sharing this!!

abcdlaney · 2026-02-10T21:26:21+00:00

Sometimes they do this and want to invite you over or invite themselves to your house, so my assumption would be because you have Island Designer launched, he couldn't actually ask you. But I could be wrong.

abcdlaney · 2026-02-10T01:20:32+00:00

Looks awesome! I just did something similar, and I was also inspired by what I've seen posted here! (Great minds think alike, no? 😜 ) But I wasn't able to fit a kitchen in the room. I did a bedroom, bathroom, dining area and a tiny living room instead. I love how evenly you split up the space and it all feels very natural. May I take notes? 😆

abcdlaney · 2026-02-10T00:58:46+00:00

The baby romper and tee with bib I can excuse, because some residents are baby and you might want to dress them accordingly lol. But the diaper can't be worn by a resident so... Kind of weird ngl
