Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp Complete Snack Guide: Maximize Friendship Levels

This guide details how to acquire and effectively utilize snacks in Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp Complete to rapidly boost animal friendship levels and accelerate your Camp Manager Level progression. Snacks are a valuable resource, so understanding their acquisition and optimal use is key.

Acquiring Snacks: Unlocking the Sweetest Rewards

The most reliable method for obtaining snacks is through Gulliver's Ship.

Gulliver's Ship Guide

Gulliver's Ship

Sending Gulliver to special islands (gold islands) yields Villager Maps. Completing an island rewards you with a significant number of Gold Treats. If you've already collected all Villager Maps, focus on "Isle of Style" islands for consistent Gold Treat rewards (3 as souvenirs, plus 3 as a completion bonus).

Remember:

  • You can view three islands at a time. One free refresh per day is available.
  • Island completion times vary; longer islands (6 hours) often yield more treats. Piano Island, for example, offers a variety of Tart Snacks.
  • Gulliver's voyages require cargo, craftable in your furniture catalog. Island themes influence the required cargo type (e.g., Exotic Island prefers exotic-themed furniture). Use the magnifying glass to preview an island's snack rewards.

Alternative Snack Sources

While less consistent than Gulliver's Ship, other methods exist:

  • Requests and Gifts: Rare item requests or campsite visitor gifts may include Bronze, Silver, or Gold Treats.
  • Daily Goals: Check your Daily Goals for potential Silver and Gold Treat rewards.
  • Blathers's Treasure Trek: Utilize Blathers's Treasure Trek (Auto-Trek option costs 5 Leaf Tokens) to harvest all treats from available Villager Maps. These maps always contain Bronze, Silver, and Gold Treats.

Understanding Snack Types and Values

Snacks are categorized as either regular (Bronze, Silver, Gold Treats) or themed.

Snack Tiers:

  • Regular: Bronze, Silver, and Gold Treats are universally liked. Gold Treats provide the highest friendship points (25).

Optimizing Snack Usage: Friendship Point Maximization

Giving a Snack

Always check an animal's theme before gifting a snack. Matching themes significantly increases friendship points. Gold Treats, being generic, are always a good choice. Ten Gold Treats can boost a level 1 animal to level 15. Check an animal's theme icon near their name at your campsite or in your Contacts/Pete's Parcel Service. To give a snack, tap the animal and select "Have a snack!".

By following this guide, you can efficiently collect and utilize snacks to maximize friendship levels and progress through Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp Complete.
