Any bugs or fish you catch or fossils you dig up...You can choose to donate to the museum rather than sell them. That's the basic explanation but as a little space, it's quite wonderful.

Oh, like a walk-in bestiary, then? That sounds neat.

I think the museum is stunning. It’s always been a highlight but they’ve outdone themselves for this one.

Yeah from when I’ve been to Nick’s or a couple of other people’s museum I’m so jealous. The music and general ambience are stunning.

Dude, go watch a quick vid of the aquarium. It’s stunning.

The music in the Museum lobby is sublime, I love it.

The museum in this game is incredible. I'm slowly working through adding to collection and I've just hit the point where I'm starting to only find maybe 1 fossil a day to add to it. Happens in every game so it's no biggy.

Also, if there's anything else you need whilst you're building up the game please let me know, I'll be happy to help :)

P.S It was good saying hi last night! I hope you and your wife had fun on Beat Saber :D

Haha. It ended up being very brief as the kids were being pesky but still got to play a bit which was fun! Thanks for the offer of help! I think I need all the tips I can get!

This morning was pretty significant as my bridge, museum and 3 guest houses were all finished.

Also my turnip prices have started to climb again now 140 (up from 80 something) so I’ll keep an eye out to see if it continues.

Still scratching the surface as I only got the ability to clap last night so I’ve got a way to go to even get close to other people’s achievements. However I do feel I’m now well and truly on the AC train and I ain’t getting off for some time!!

Not entirely sure what, specifically, we were short of, but after adding truckloads of whatever Isabelle said we needed (bridges, inclines, exterior decorations, fencing, trees and flowers) my island finally(!) managed to crack a 3-star rating. Phew!

Oh, there's one piece of advice I would give to everyone working towards a 3-star rating. I'll stick it in a spoiler tag, just in case anyone doesn't appreciate unsolicited advice, not because of any actual spoilers contained within.
Spoiler: show
Save up some Nook Miles! I had plenty from just regular play, but ~30k Miles will be handy to have once you get to a 3-star rating.

Into the final day of turnip sales, I've only got 188 Bells. Better than nothing, if you're desperate, so let me know if you need to offload any turnips.

Picked up about 300k Bells worth of neeps. Gonna be looking for prices again this week, and will also post mine here if they're high enough to be of interest (over 150 Bells, I guess).

Nice to see some big efforts going here for big rewards.

Not getting stung this week 😄, anything over 🛎300 is my moving number 😎.
