Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer Blog

Hello, and welcome to my Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer Blog! I'm Jeff and here you can follow along with my adventures in the game. Unlike other Animal Crossing games, Happy Home Designer does not run in real-time. So some blog entries will cover multiple game days. If you'd like, you can start from the beginning or just jump right in! At the bottom of the page, you'll be able to find links to all of the entries. Or read my review.

Day 123

I connected to the Happy Home Network to check out the monthly challenge for May 2017. This month's theme is "an underwater emergency." The two featured items are an inflatable Resetti and a submarine. I've previously acquired the submarine in entry 104, but the inflatable Resetti was new to me since I missed it the first time around.

I didn't have any watery rugs I can use outdoors, so I quickly made an all-blue pattern to be used as water. I then used a tropical rug to put Tom Nook (and his house) on an island. I then put two submarines in the water, but out of reach of Tom Nook. I don't want him hitching a ride. You're stranded here, yes yes?

Tom Nook is stranded on an island in Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer.

Indoors, I used the water floor and underwater wall, and underwater sounds as the sound scenery. I had to put the inflatable Resetti here, but I'm not sure why he's here. Maybe a mermaid reset her 3DS or something. I added in some grass standees (to stand-in for some seaweed or sea grass) and I put a few seashells around too.

But even though I do have a mermaid statue, I thought it would be more fun to let Tom Nook play the role of the resetting mermaid. So we find Tom Nook relaxing in his floor seat (or sea floor seat, in this case), playing the latest Animal Intersection game on 3DS. But he's shocked to find that the game's real estate agent (Ron Crook) is charging him lots of money (nearly a million shells) for rent.

So he angrily resets his game, foolishly thinking that he can evade Ron Crook that easily. But Animal Intersection doesn't work that way, and a giant Resetti tunnels up from the ocean floor to scream, yell, and teach Mr. Nook a lesson.

The scare leaves Tom feeling weak and exhausted, and he retreats to his sea-anemone bed for some rest. Before crying himself to sleep, Tom Nook vows to become a better person.

In the morning, Tom Nook wakes up feeling uncomfortable--he even wondered if he wet his pants! But then he remembers that he's living underwater, so everything was already wet. But what about Resetti? Was it all a dream?
