ACNH Life app in your phone's Google store is free and you can find out which of Redd's artwork finds are fake or genuine

[@tamraprice3126]

My tip u could of said u can only assess a fossils 1 at a time if u give blathers more then 1 at a time he will just give u them as there skeleton form

[@claudias5564]

I watched this whole video, and I don’t thimpnk you mentioned you can use the watering tool to plant trees on the edge.

[@AdrianBigyes]

Here's a neat trick.. If you place a karaoke machine and a microphone, any villagers that will sing through the mic will have reverb/echo. :)

[@unusually.crossing]

As an Animal Crossing New Horizons veteran I knew every single tip 😂 I have one tip to share: if you're trying to catch a sea creature that moves very fast, slowly approach it without pressing the B button, it'll move almost as slowly as you do. Once you're close enough to it, dive and catch it. I use this trick all the time when looking for rare and expensive sea creatures.

[@junefousek3644]

I use this too. Sometimes they still get away from me

[@dj_netwrk4901]

CHASE CROSSING?!? BACK ON MY SCREEN!?! MISSED U DUDEEEE

[@Mitzi_of_Hilltop]

A few corrections: • Coconuts won’t freeze a tree’s growth like other fruit. • CJ and Flick pay 1.5x the regular price, not double. • Don’t bother buying a fake art piece at Harvey’s on Sunday, because they reset on Mondays. • You don’t need to time travel to get rid of holes. You can just save, quit, and restart the game. Thanks for the video; I enjoyed it!

[@ChaseCrossing]

Thank you for the corrections!!

[@indaloasmr]

chase i just thought about u earlier this month 🥺 so glad ur back, ur acnh videos bring me sm comfort since 2020 🫶🏻

[@wooyoungisbaby]

Chase, i missed you! :D As for tip 87, alternatively, if you choose the dialogue "i have some ideas" when the villager asks if you wanna do a home for them, you get free reins to name the place whatever you want from the get-go, and there are no required items!

[@ChaseCrossing]

Good to know! I actually never tried that!!

[@wooyoungisbaby]

@@ChaseCrossing Understandable! It seems like it would be one of those options where it doesn't matter what you choose, haha :)

[@bayobayo]

7 minutes ago?? Holy shit okay. So I've never actually played ACNH myself BUT I found your channel during quarantine and it had been the 2nd channel that had helped me get through that time (the 1st being Gab Smolders playthrough of ACNH but I loved you both I swear!). Your ACNH videos gave me so much envy and WANT to just get a Switch for so long, but after a while living vicariously through you (and Gab Smolders), I was content and happy to watch your tours and your tips and even catch your livestreams once in a while. I wish you all the best and now, I'm actually going to watch the video. ^^;

[@ChaseCrossing]

That means so much thank you

[@bayobayo]

No problem, my dude! I'm just glad to see you on my Home page and on my screen ^^ Trust that when the day comes that I do get a switch and ACNH someday, you can bet that I'll be rewatching your stuff like it was the gosh darn bible hahaha Take care, man. Good to see you again.

[@alexboocrossing3269]

Never seen your videos before. This is the first one that’s showed up for me and I’m very glad! You’re so pleasant to listen to and seem so wholesome! Thanks for all the tips!

[@maryle126]

Okay but how did you know I just started a new island after not playing for like months? So glad to see you’re back! ✨

[@thesippingsiren8103]

Not only do birds appear on the bulletin board for a message but you'll also see an owl when something really special is going to happen

[@onefunkyboi]

like what?

[@CasualBenrey]

I think it's owls in the night yellow birds in the day.

[@G0d0fDaWallz]

@@CasualBenreyyeah

[@greygamestv7800]

your kindness in this video made me cry twice. instant subscription. oh, and the video was very helpful too lol

[@daniellef1605]

As a long-term animal crossing player, I know a good portion of these but I did learn a couple of tips that I would have never thought about. Thanks, Chase!

[@wintergirl17]

When catching a tarantula or scorpion, take one step towards it, it will stand up & bear its claws. Wait for them to go back to the ground and move another step closer, then keep going until you're close enough to catch them. So much easier than trapping them.

[@balognaisyucky]

Also you can hold A and inch towards it in tiny little spurts when it's claws are up and it won't attack you so you don't ever have to actually stop moving. Then let go of A to swing the net

[@afterglowisle]

Happy to have you back, even if it's for a short while. These tips are super helpful and even some, if not most of them, I honestly had no idea about!

[@AdrianBigyes]

During KK concert, I like to hold my glow stick. It's more fun than clapping. XD

[@bigtrouble72]

WOW!! I've been playing for a little over a year and didn't know probably 75% of these. Thank you! FWIW, you got yourself a new subscriber, lol

[@AdrianBigyes]

The wasp edit was insane and funny. XD

[@ElemonAdventures]

I’m glad I’m not the only one who hates the mole cricket. Something else you can do is place weeds on top of where the mole cricket is and it will instantly despawn it. It’s more convent than having to dig it up

[@ElemonAdventures]

Also something to mention, the flower one. The best pattern for single flowers is the turtle pattern. It gave me blue roses. I’ve noticed a lot more. The 1 space is good for duplicating flowers, but not good for breeding.

[@Itslunatyx]

Such a fantastic and helpful video for both new players and veteran players alike! Thanks so much for this! Its so good to see you back ! 💜

[@fusselkoenigin]

Woah such a long video, it must have been a lot of work. Thank you for making it! I think I will rewatch videos of you this evening, because I love hearing your voice. It helps me fall asleep :)

[@v4ldron]

I really want to thank you for this amazing video. I just found my love for this game again a week ago and this really helps. And I need to say that you have an amazing calm voice. It's really relaxing listening to you talking. Keep up the good work

[@TheLoneReni]

Its very interesting how animal crossing island designs became art. Complete with the demoralization from looking at other works and gaining no attention. Considering the time and creativity it takes to make a fully decorated island with a theme and perfect villagers im definately willing to say they're works of art.

[@sidjuachon9817]

I just started this again after 2 years. You’re my top of mind! Welcome back again 🫡

[@shork9979]

Chase! You have returned! The prophecy has been fulfilled! That's wild, your finding every villager streams made me want to start a second island and get back into animal crossing, now over a year later my second island is just a couple builds away from completion, and suddenly the king of animal crossing has returned. Oh yeah, it's all coming together

[@rileymarble0401]

Currently crying happy tears! 🥲 I’ve been in the hospital for over a week and will be here for a few more weeks. Your videos bring me so much happiness! Thank you for uploading! 🥰

[@laurenprice6814]

Hope you’re feeling better!

[@stephythomson14]

Hiiiii Chase!!! Clicked so fast for this notification. So nice to see you making content again ❤🤗

[@stephythomson14]

PS danggg my rainbow gong got an upgrade 👀

[@ChaseCrossing]

Looks so goooood @@stephythomson14

[@justadragonryu]

Since you didn’t know the birds on the bulletin board, at night it’s an owl. Also the more birds, the more you haven’t seen.

[@SnaxBreak]

What is this 2020?! Bro 😂 It’s always good to see you post!

[@ChaseCrossing]

2020 being 4 years ago should be illegal

[@mgnilquent.q]

Playing this game for the first time I bought it a year ago, played a little then seen people’s creations and immediately got burned out just from looking at it. Today being April I couldn’t help but take a liking to this game and try it again, it’s like a huge tycoon/minecraft and blockhead game squished in one while being cute I like it! even my sister noticed how fun this game looked and she wanted to play too but sadly she doesn’t have a Nintendo lol and we both came from games like Texas Chainsaw Massacre/Sims4 and Mario party so being into this game is like a breath of fresh air no more rage, (At least not yet.) and these tips helped a lot! I just wanted to say thank you! This game is truly something. I hope to get far into the game as possible❤

[@ChaseCrossing]

Enjoy!!! Also comparing Texas Chainsaw Massacre to Sims4/Mario Party in the same sentence is wild hahaha

[@dieahhh]

wow 🤩 great tips and tricks video, especially all of the game play with the wasps! 10/10

[@Quiverson]

Really great video for all the things to know when it comes to New Horizons! There are some things I noticed that aren't quite right, may need a little more of an explanation for, or other things: 15: I do not recommend that way of hitting rocks. You're more likely to push yourself away from the rock if you don't position yourself correctly, which is very easy to do. A better method is to dig a spot one space behind you and one to your side opposite of the rock at a corner. This will keep you in place and let you hit the rock without fail. 20: I feel it's safer to shake directly in front of the tree and make sure you have a free space on both sides of you instead of being at an angle. Otherwise, you increase the risk of accidentally shaking the tree again instead of getting the wasps. 29 - 32: Nook Mile tasks are only really good for keeping track of your progress towards the fishing rod, net, and slingshot. For the Golden Shovel, that's really difficult because it counts helping Gullivarrr and Gulliver, not just the latter. And it only goes up to 20, making it hard to determine how close you are to 30 with Gulliver if you help both of them out. My suggestion is to either keep the items Gulliver sends you so you can count them and keep track, or set aside the rusted parts that appear in the recycle box the day after helping him. Just make sure to keep them separate from the rusted parts you get after helping Gullivarrr. There is another way to keep track of how many axes you've broken, but it can be a little complicated depending on what you do: the Rough-hewn goal. It keeps track of how much wood you've chopped from trees. The "bare minimum" you would need is 4,000 (that's 100 broken flimsy axes, but ONLY IF you just used flimsy axes, did not just hit the same tree over and over again, and only considering if every hit resulted in getting a piece of wood and nothing else). Sadly, Rough-hewn only goes up to 5,000, so if you're past that, you'll never really know where you're at with the broken tools outside of the Trashed Tools goal. 35: Animal City, Drivin', and Farewell are secret songs you have to type the name CORRECTLY in order to get them. The actual invalid request songs (super secret songs) are a rearrangement of the main theme from Wild World/City Folk, a song based around 70s/80s Japanese City Pop, and a song possibly based on doo-wop songs from the 50s. You can find a little more information on these songs on Nookipedia. The files in the game name each song Hazure1, Hazure2, and Hazure3 respectively. 38: If you're not trying to break axes anymore to get the golden axe, you can also just use the stone axe. It has the same durability as the regular axe, BUT it won't cut down trees like the flimsy axe. 42: An alternative to this would be using the cooking recipes or buying food items from Nook's Cranny or Nook Shopping, but it's understandably not as convenient as getting turnips and eating them to max it out. 44: Sending messages to yourself is also super helpful for completing the Popular Pen Pal Nook Mile Task. How else would you send 200 letters while playing the game? You can also send letters to your residents (villagers) and depending on what you write (or don't write at all), you can get some fun little bits of text you don't get to see anywhere else. 50: The USB keyboard tip is super underrated, I swear! That's one thing I always love yet so few people know about, especially content creators! Glad you included that one, even if it was very brief! 51: From CJ and Flick, it's not double but 50% more than what you would get for selling critters at Nook's Cranny. Also, your residents can offer to buy more common critters off you for 50% or 100% of the price you would from selling them at Nook's. Though, they'll only opt to buy them if you talk to them a couple of times, but it may not always happen. 58: This one's kinda weird. While you do unlock your catalogue from Tom Nook later on in the DLC, you still have to take on a client that will have that item available as part of your "unlocked" (recommended) items. Those items will then be available to purchase from Wardell. This is just to clarify something that some may find confusing, since the game doesn't really tell you how you get items available from Wardell's shop. It definitely confused me until I figured that out. 64: To add to that, if you happen to miss a day or time period, you can use the NSO app under the Island Newspaper section and scroll to the bottom of the screen to see what the price was for that day/time period. Only really works if you don't time travel, though... 71: I'm pretty sure you meant the right stick on that one, but if the left stick does the same thing, I guess I never noticed? 73: As an avid saver of tons (and I do mean TONS) of photos and videos, I absolutely agree with this. Definitely something to keep in mind is you can only save up to 100 videos on your Switch. However, if you have an SD card in your switch, you can save up to 1,000 videos. Now with screenshots, I have no idea what the limit is (if one exists), but they take up very little room (that does add up over time). Whenever you want to back all of them up, you can simply connect you Switch to your computer, go to System Settings, Manage Screenshots and Videos, and Copy to a Computer via USB Connection. I don't know how well this works when docked, as I do this when the Switch is in Handheld mode. If you're not able to do this, you can also take out the SD card after turning off your Switch and connecting it to your computer. Much more tedious to get the photos and videos this way (mainly due to how the files are structured), but you don't have to connect your Switch and PC directly if you're not able to do so. Of course, there's always sending them to your phone or other mobile device, but I've always found the way they implemented that feature to be more of a pain that it has any right to be. 81: To clarify a bit more for that, make sure you fish for specific ones multiple times. Salmon, for example, has 4 recipes that you can get from catching them, and you have to catch a good amount of them to get all the recipes. Of the fish you need to get that have recipes, I'd say the hardest one is the Blue Marlin. Somewhat helpful tip for getting this fish: while it's a pier only fish, it can also appear on NMT islands when you fish on the dock near the plane. It's strange, but it can happen. Other fish that have related recipes to them include the following: Anchovy, Barred knifejaw, Dab, Olive flounder, Red snapper, Sea bass, and Squid. 87: I've already seen someone mention about the "I have some ideas" option when designing homes, so I'll leave it at that. However, I do want to mention something in regards to amiibo: you don't appear to have the option to choose whether or not you want to do the theme they want for their home (if it's a resident and not a Special character). I need to double check this, but I believe a workaround for this is to do a custom theme for one of the potential clients on the beach or in the cafe or restaurant, then amiibo in the client you want to make a custom theme for. It's very bizarre, but I guess that's just how it works? Apologies for the super long comment! I guess I had a lot more to say than I thought!

[@mrs.howland3063]

You don't have to time travel for holes to dissapear, just re open the game no need to time travel

[@Sqturn_xx]

Or. Patch them up

[@FatlessAlloy]

Honestly I didn’t expect to learn ever so much, I thought I knew it all but I was genuinely so wrong, this video is so helpful and it’s really reinvigorated my love for the game after having played it for years! 🎉

[@cosygracegames]

I just looked at this thumbnail for a second in awe 😂😍

[@alliewave1025]

Thank you for making this theres so much to do and I'm so excited for it 😁

[@michelledoan4299]

I have always enjoyed your ACNH content! Especially your island visits. You have such a wholesome energy and soothing voice. I recently started playing ACNH again!

[@tigerb]

Great video! I feel like a real pro now with these amazing tips (except for tip #42.5)

[@ChaseCrossing]

Tip 42.5 is the most important tip what do you mean

[@airyel6381]

Chase!! You have no idea how much this made my day 😭✨💕🎉 we’ve missed you!!!!

[@Starryeyed1801]

This was so helpful!! Been playing for a year and just started a new island. There's so much I didn't know. Thanks ❤❤❤

[@ChaseCrossing]

Glad I could help!!

[@kararookie]

My first campsite villager was Marshal and I’ve never been happier. He was my dream villager before I even started the game. Now he’s my best bud and I’m never letting him leave

[@MichaeleL3]

Loved this video! I got back into it after a few years and recaptured my love of the game. Funny you mentioned Nintendogs. I loved that game, was great at it and even wrote a book on it (Going to the Dogs is the title). I love that someone else still remembers it!

[@CozyLoke808]

The ending was right on point! Just enjoy the game because once your island is done, its done. Thats where im at, i want to restart but cant seem to let go of all my progress 😂

[@TeddyCrafter84]

Chase is back!! Right when I've just restarted my island too! Perfect timing

[@katelynnova2537]

These have all been so helpful!! Thank you so much for making this!

[@ChaseCrossing]

You're welcome! Glad you learned some things!!

[@evilimp]

wow i just got acnh and am going to use this for my first playthrough. thanks !!

[@ChaseCrossing]

Wow have fun! Try a spooky island theme it will be great

[@mochimoka0968]

I actually thought you werent going to come back to us and here you are

[@DarkSolarartz]

Also, if you round the corner on your terraforming and go the the side with it and break it off, you can break off that one and another. Do it multiple times and it works a lil faster since you only use the rounding once

[@susanayebenes1737]

I was thinking some days ago that I missed your videos so much and now I see this ❤

[@GoofyGooberMars]

I needed this refresher I watched all the videos like this back in 2020

[@anastazja7921]

nook's cranny, you don't have to go inside to know what's hot item, just click sign in front of the store and it'll shortly and quickly tell you. + funfact if you wear those japanese shoes (you're wearing in video) they make different noises on cliffs, bridges, wooden floor too Also I heard that villagers have limited list of recipes, so changing them is helpful and try to make the recipe at least once, to not get repeats

[@mellysandshrew]

Blessed Chase Crossing content for my feed, thank you so much

[@user-nj8rf2qe1m]

I started a month ago and this is so helpful, thank you! 🙏

Good to have you back man!

[@HelixturnHelix]

Liked because of the O'Hare appreciation! He is my absolute favorite ❤️

[@itzsharon3570]

one of my tips is when I want to get rid of a custom path or make a new one I just overwrite it with the new one so I don’t even have to do any work.

[@user-vq4hh5cv4n]

Wow what a pleasant surprise seeing you back!

[@majabaja98]

Waahh! Missed u alot! Glad to see another video again🥹

[@jelyse14]

41:19 To make this more clear, it says "Yes!" if *you've* never gotten the bug before, that message isn't an indication of anything beyond whether you yourself have caught it or not. At first I thought it meant that it was something completely new that we hadn't donated yet, but playing on the same Switch on the same island as my sibling they had already caught and donated it.

[@leoniemikosama3686]

Une astuce dont personne ne parle : mettre des lunettes opaques (comme des lunettes de soleil par exemple) quand on s'est fait piquer par des abeilles permet de ne pas se faire interpeller à ce sujet par les habitants quand on veut leur parler.

[@mellymelbabeth]

OMG CHASEEEEE! I hope all is well and you are doing ok. So excited to see this vid. Sending hugs ❤

[@summ3rscom3t]

Love the video! I was wondering if you could do a tips video for new players?

[@ChaseCrossing]

Hmm I could!! It's been sooo long since I last was a new player, maybe I'll have to start a new island and experiment!!

[@lexilion6210]

I think we don't have to skip to the next day when we want the holes to be filled again. Saving the game and go in to it again filled them already. So that's what I noticed :) it's a little faster I guess

[@ChaseCrossing]

Yeah you're totally right!!

[@snowyevergreen1389]

Hello Chase, it’s been a long time since the last video. It’s amazing and I enjoyed the time in your livestreams ❤

[@SailorMoonFanTracy]

OMG! I learned so much even though I've been playing for 2 years

[@GoblnHollow]

Me after seeing the golden/flimsy axe and Mario tube tip 😮😮😮 WHAT!? I am loading up the game rn and getting those done. Thank you!!!

[@ChaseCrossing]

Right?! They're SUCH game-changers!

Heck yeah. Nice. I know what I will be watching for the next hr ~ (with ads).

I don't think you missed any tips, but i surely did miss you and your videos 😊🥺🥰

[@yasminellis6648]

When you're in the museum, when you go into the fossil area, and you go straight ahead, then turn right to the sun thing in the corner then go through the door go up the stairs there's a bunch of characters if you stand in between one of then it zooms in to the fossils!!

[@tanyacollen3346]

My favourite tip is definitely 66, this’ll improve my island massively, tyy!!! ❤
