Intermediate Rewards

On Monday, I got to see the inside of Mira’s house now that she’s all unpacked. She has astro furniture, which is pretty cool. And that spherical radar is one of the my favorite furniture items in the game.

I’ve continued to play Desert Island Escape lately, and I’ve been using a team of Celeste, Booker, and Stitches.

Booker: Ha! A nasty toxic snake is no match for me!

I particularly like that Celeste can fly over obstacles like water or mountains. It’s helpful for reaching new areas to set up camp.

After I completed the 6th and 7th intermediate levels in Desert Island Escape (which unlocked the advanced levels), I received this letter in the mail:

To Jeff,
Looks like you’re getting the hang of this Desert Island Escape thing! Here’s a little something special to keep you motivated: this water floor!

-From Nintendo

Here’s a screenshot of the flooring:

Last night, I cleared the last remaining intermediate levels. I received this letter from Nintendo today:

To Jeff,
Can you believe it?! You’ve cleared all intermediate levels of Desert Island Escape! You deserve this Wii U game shelf!

And here’s a look at my new Wii U game shelf:

Next up, I’ll have to tackle the advanced levels. And I’m now wondering if I ever completed all of the Desert Island Escape levels in Amiibo Festival. Because I really don’t remember. 🤔 (Update: I did complete them all on Wii U.)

Anyway, Aurora asked me to fetch Forest’s other penguin today, Cube. I brought him around, and Aurora said she found something that she thinks belongs to Cube.

Aurora: It was sticky with chocolate and covered in ants, so I knew it had to be yours.

It was a red-grid tee, and it was indeed Cube’s shirt. He thanked her for returning it, and then walked out.

Aurora thanked me for helping out by giving me a gold screen wall.

Inkwell asked me to catch him for a cricket tonight, and without thinking, I declined the request. I’m kicking myself, because I still need his photo and I hate that I wasted the opportunity. Oof.

According to Luna, my recent dream visitors include Emma from Fishy and Joseph from Fun St. Thanks for stopping by!
