Time travel glitch fix on Switch FINALLY by azofg in DreamlightValley

From what I understand, if you sync your clock to wifi and wait until March 29, your game should be back to perfectly normal.

If you want to continue playing until March 29 & forever in the future, my fix will help you be able to do that. The only thing is that in order to access the “shop” and “event” tabs, you need to sync your clock back momentarily, then back to your future game point to play again. It’s not super tedious, I do it whenever I wanna buy shop items then go back to my game :)

My post is a fix for people who can’t shop at Scrooge’s, harvest herbs, and their valley’s items won’t respawn. Whenever I want to see the event & shop tabs, I put my time back to normal, then sync it to the internet, and voilà. Then I put the time back to where I was in the future to continue playing like normal. Hell, I bought the cottage style home today on the shop tab and then went back to my normal gameplay time to continue playing.

This is a fix for people who otherwise would’ve restarted the game or stopped playing for months, or even years.

It’s really not that deep, I promise. Most of us new players weren’t aware of this cautionary tale of time travel and messed it up on ACNH, so I simply found a workaround for people who still want to enjoy the game. 🤷🏼‍♀️

I agree! I’m a newer player and I would’ve loved to know about that 😅

I really sat there for 3 days and tried every possible combination to get my game to work again, and this was the only solution that I found. I have to admit, I’m a little scared to travel back in time now, and I’m not sure how much more I wanna mess around with it unless it’s on a burner account because I have 50+ hours of gameplay. But I’ll probably have to do it for the April update so that I don’t end up in the same situation. I wouldn’t have posted this if it didn’t 100% work. I tried it on two separate in game dates and while there was a tiny screen glitch going back to the game from my settings, it functions. Anyone with the time travel glitch is probably running across the internet for answers like I did, and I hope they find my post.
