Welcoming a Tiger to Your Island: How to Get Them

So, you've fallen in love with a tiger villager and you want one (or more!) on your island? Here's how to increase your chances of getting them. This process takes time, but it will be worth it in the long run.

The Campsite Method

• Build the Campsite: Make sure you've unlocked and built the campsite. This is a key feature for inviting new villagers, including tigers, to your island.
• Wait for Visitors: Villagers will randomly visit your campsite. This can take time. Make sure you check every day.
• Talk and Persuade: When a tiger villager shows up, talk to them repeatedly. They might be hesitant at first, but keep chatting and inviting them to stay.
• Play Games: Some villagers will only agree to move in if you win a game they propose. Be ready to play games like card games.
• Acceptance: After a few tries, they should agree to move in, given you have an open plot. If your island is full, they might suggest replacing an existing villager – choose wisely!

Mystery Island Tours

• Nook Miles Tickets: Use Nook Miles Tickets to travel to mystery islands. This is a great way to find villagers. There are times when you will not find any villagers, but you must be patient.
• Island Hopping: Visit multiple islands and talk to the villagers you find. Each island has a chance of having a tiger villager.
• Invite to Move: If you find a tiger villager you like, invite them to move to your island.
• Empty Plot: Make sure you have an empty plot of land available on your island before you go villager hunting.

Trading and Amiibo Cards

• Online Communities: Join online communities like forums and social media groups to find other players who might be willing to trade a tiger villager.
• Amiibo Cards: Use Amiibo cards. If you have the tiger villager's Amiibo card, you can scan it to invite them to your campsite or ask them to move to your island. This is a fast way to get the villager that you want, but it requires purchasing the cards.

Building a Tiger-Friendly Island: Decor & Activities

Once you have a tiger villager, you want to make them feel right at home, right? Here's how to build an island that your tiger will love:

Decorating Tips

• Color Schemes: Tigers often have orange, black, and white as their main colors. Decorate their houses with these color schemes. Choose furniture and items to match. This will create a warm and inviting space.
• Outdoor Spaces: Create outdoor spaces like parks, gardens, or recreation areas where your tiger villager can relax and socialize. Include items like benches, picnic tables, and play equipment.
• Personalization: Tailor your tiger villager's home and outdoor spaces to match their personality. Does your tiger villager have a favorite hobby? Build spaces for them to pursue those hobbies, like a gym for a jock villager or a library for a bookish villager.

Activities

• Chatting: Make sure you talk to your tiger villager daily. Ask them how they are doing and tell them what you are doing. This strengthens your friendship.
• Gifting: Give gifts to your tiger villagers regularly. They enjoy items that match their personality or that are useful. This will help strengthen your friendship.
• Events: Participate in island events with your tiger villager. Attend seasonal events and interact with your tiger villager during the events.
