Life on the island

Everyone shares one island. Wave hello, trade, sit by the fire, or just fish quietly next to someone new.

Pets and neighbours

Some pets can't be bought. A frog might hop out of the pond, or a baby turtle might swim up from the reef. The whole island hears about it when one does.

  • Seven wild pets to find, each with a perk
  • Five villagers with quests, friendships and titles
