Can You Invite Campers Without Amiibo?
Inviting campers to move into your island is one of the most exciting features in Animal Crossing: New Horizons. But did you know that you don’t necessarily need an amiibo card to invite them? In this article, we’ll explore the ways to invite campers without amiibo and answer the question once and for all.
Direct Answer
Yes, you can invite campers without amiibo. In fact, there are two ways to do so. We’ll cover both methods in this article.
Method 1: Visit the Campsite
Campers will visit your island’s campsite randomly, and if you have a free housing plot available, they may ask to move in. To invite a camper to stay on your island, follow these steps:
- Talk to the camper and invite them to move in
- Complete the camper’s DIY requests three times
- The camper will ask you to join them in a mini-game
- After winning the mini-game, the camper will agree to move into your island
Method 2: Invite from the Mystery Island
Sometimes, a mystery island will appear on your map, and a villager will ask you to visit them. When you arrive, they’ll offer to join your island in exchange for completing a series of DIY requests. Follow these steps:
- Complete the villager’s DIY requests three times
- The villager will ask you to join them in a mini-game
- After winning the mini-game, the villager will agree to move into your island
Why Can’t I Ask a Camper to Move In?
If a camper refuses to move in, don’t worry! It’s not because of your amiibo card status. Here are some possible reasons why:
- Free Housing Plot: If you don’t have a free housing plot available, the camper will not move in.
- Less Than 10 Villagers: If you already have 10 villagers living on your island, the camper will not move in.
- The Camper’s Personality: Some campers are just not meant to live on your island. Try inviting different campers to see who might fit in better.
Why Are Some Campers Not Moving In?
Sometimes, campers might say no to moving in, even if you’ve completed their DIY requests. Here’s what you can do:
- Don’t Close the Software: Avoid closing the game or shutting off your console until the camper’s dialog is finished. This might affect their decision.
- Keep Asking: Try inviting the camper to move in multiple times. They might eventually agree to join your island.
Can I Use Fake Amiibo Cards?
While it’s technically possible to use fake amiibo cards, we don’t recommend it. Nintendo doesn’t support or guarantee the functionality of counterfeit amiibo cards, and they might not work properly.
Conclusion
Inviting campers without amiibo is definitely possible in Animal Crossing: New Horizons. By visiting the campsite or inviting them from mystery islands, you can increase your chances of getting new villagers to move in. Remember to check your island’s housing availability and keep trying to invite campers until you find the perfect fit for your island community.
