The latest trend in the Animal Crossing: New Horizons community is treasure islands. These islands are hosted by players who share their Dodo Codes publicly through Twitch, Discord, or TikTok and invite other players to come and take whatever they would like.

We have a villager in boxes add on for Treasure Island visits, we only need the villagers name and we will have them ready for you when you come I live (here), can I still visit? Yes! We have customers all over the world, to visit all you need is your ACNH game, Nintendo Online account and a good internet connection

Streamers will host a completely free treasure island and put the Dodo Code inside their stream chats, requiring other players to open and view the stream in order to access the island. It’s certainly a clever way to drive up views and engagement on a stream, but may not be the most ethical.

“Some people are scavenging for certain items to make their island paradise, others like the thrill and describe going to the island like going to candy land as a child,” Yobu, from Nook Wizards ’ Treasure Islands, told Polygon via Twitter DM. “The experience is different for everyone and they all enjoy it.”
