Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp Complete - How to Level Up Quickly

Quick Links

Unlocking all the animals in Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp requires reaching Camp Manager Level 76. Beyond that level, only animals tied to Villager Maps remain. Leveling up becomes increasingly challenging at higher levels, so consistent effort is key. Focus on completing requests, interacting with visitors, and maximizing friendship points. Leveling up provides valuable Leaf Tokens and expands your inventory, making it a worthwhile pursuit.

How to Farm Experience

Tips for Leveling Up Fast

Interacting with map animals grants +2 friendship points. These animals always have requests. Completing requests, chatting with animals, giving gifts, and changing their outfits all boost friendship levels, which in turn increases your Camp Manager level.

Animals rotate every three hours, bringing new requests. Talk to everyone before the rotation!

Animals at your campsite/cabin stay until dismissed. Warping there during the three-hour cycle reveals visiting animals eager to chat, providing more friendship points. Selecting "Tell me a story!" sometimes leads to gift-giving opportunities. Even unwanted gifts yield +6 friendship points.

Remember: Only red dialogue options award friendship points. For example, "Change outfit!" only grants points the first time you select it.

Amenities

Amenities offer a way to earn friendship points from multiple animals simultaneously. Animals of the same type as the amenity receive a bonus. While animal selection is random, ensure desired animals are at your campsite before amenity completion.

Amenities take days to build but can be upgraded with Bells and materials for continued friendship point gains. Upgrading a level 4 amenity to max level (5) requires 3-4 days of construction.

Giving Snacks

Giving snacks ("Have a snack!") boosts friendship. Matching snack and animal types maximizes points. For example, a Plain Waffle (natural theme) works best with natural-themed animals like Goldie, rather than Agnes (non-natural).

Gulliver's Ship unlocks Villager Maps from golden islands, redeemable at Blathers's Treasure Trek for Bronze, Silver, and Gold Treats. Completing all island souvenirs yields 20 Gold Treats. Alternatively, Requests and Isles of Style provide these treats if all maps are acquired. Unlike regular snacks, these treats are universally liked, granting +3, +10, and +25 friendship points respectively.

Animal Requests Tips

What Should You Give?

Pete's Parcel Service lets you complete requests en masse, provided you have the necessary items. Most requests involve delivering collected items (fruit, bugs).

Some requests specify a single item (fruit, bug, fish). While using common items is tempting, higher-value items yield bonus rewards and experience, plus 1500 Bells. Consider these:

  • Perfect Fruit (excluding non-local)
  • Snow crab
  • Splendid alfonsino
  • Amberjack
  • R. Brooke's birdwing
  • Luna moth
  • White scarab beetle

Reaching level 10 (or 15 for some animals) unlocks Special Requests, requiring crafted furniture (often costing 9000+ Bells and 10+ hours). These are time-consuming but provide substantial friendship points.
