Special Visitors

Chip: (6am-6pm June-November) He holds a fishing tourney every Sunday during the months of June and November. He’ll give you a prize if you caught the biggest bass that day (so far). At the end of the day, if you were the winner, you’ll receive a prize on the mail.

Franklin: (3pm to 9pm on Thanksgiving) Find him hiding behind trees and buildings. Give him the forks Tortimer gives you at the Town Hall and he’ll give you special “Harvest” furniture. You can repeat this until you have the whole collection.

Gracie: (6am-6am – 24 hours on a random day) Wash her car by tapping A really fast when she asks you to and she’ll give you one of her unique shirts.

Jack: (6pm Oct. 31 to 1am Nov. 1) Everyone in town will be dressed up like Jack that day, but you have to find the real Jack. He will not chase you, but you’ll have to give him candy you bought at Nook’s during the month of November. He’ll give you “Spooky” furniture. If you’re persistent, you’ll find the whole collection.

Jingle: (Dec. 24 – 8pm to Dec. 25 – 1am) Talk to him several times and he’ll give you pieces of the “Jingle” series furniture. Only trick is…you have to change your clothes each time so he doesn’t recognize you!

Joan: (Sunday 6am – Noon) Buy turnips from her and sell them to Nook any day of the week except Sundays. The prices vary like the stock market, so you may make extra money or lose some. Also, you can buy red turnips from her, which you can plant for a special surprise. Turnips rot after a week, so sell them before that!

Katrina: (9pm – 9pm- 24 hours on a random day) She’ll tell you your fortune. Sometimes it’s nothing important, but sometimes she will tell you something special.

K.K. Slider (aka Totakeke) (Saturday 6pm to Midnight) Watch him play music at the cafeteria. He’ll give you a record after the song is done so you can play the music at home. Find the song list at the bottom of the page.

Mr. Resetti (After You Don't Save the Game) You should be familiar with him by now, but he shows up every time you forget to save your game before quitting. He'll be really annoying and will talk and talk until he thinks you've understood why it's important to save.

Nat (3rd Saturday in June, July, August, and September) Nat hosts the Bug Catching Contest. He'll reward you with gifts each time you bring him the rarest bug. Also, he'll send you the Bug Trophy if you were able to catch the rarest bug that day.

Saharah: (6am to 6am – 24 hours on a random day) She trades rare and exotic carpets for one of your carpets and some money. The prices go up the more you buy from her, but sometimes it’s worth it.

Snowman: (Dec. 25 to Mid-February) If you notice small balls of snow in the ground you should roll them around to make them bigger. Find another ball and roll it on top of the other to make a snowman. If it has the right proportions, he’ll give you special “Snowman” furniture. If he’s out of proportion, he’ll just complain.

Wendell: (6am to 6am – 24 hours on a random day) When you find him, you’ll have the opportunity to give him fish three times. He’ll give you wallpapers in exchange.

Wisp: (Midnight-3am) He'll appear in your town every night, and you have to catch him with your net. When you let him go, he'll let you choose one of several items, including rare furniture and objects.
