Level Up Your Camp Manager in Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp
This guide provides strategies for rapidly increasing your Camp Manager level in Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp, unlocking all animals (excluding Villager Map exclusives). Reaching higher levels becomes increasingly challenging, so consistent effort is key. Leveling up offers significant rewards, including Leaf Tokens and expanded inventory space.
How to Farm Experience
Accelerating Level Progression
Interacting with animals on the map yields +2 friendship points. Complete their requests, engage in conversation, offer gifts, and change their outfits to boost their friendship levels, which in turn increases your Camp Manager experience.
Animals rotate every three hours, presenting new requests and opportunities. Maximize your points by speaking with each animal before the rotation. Animals at your campsite/cabin remain until dismissed, providing consistent interaction opportunities. Visiting your campsite during the three-hour cycle allows you to interact with visiting animals and gain additional friendship points. Selecting "Tell me a story!" may lead to gift-giving opportunities, awarding +6 friendship points regardless of the animal's preference.
Remember, friendship points are only earned by selecting red dialogue options. Options revert to regular text after selection, preventing repeated point gains from the same action.
Utilizing Amenities
Constructing amenities provides a way to earn friendship points from multiple animals simultaneously. Animals matching the amenity's type receive increased experience. While animal selection is randomized, strategically placing animals at your campsite before amenity completion maximizes benefits.
Amenities require days to build but can be upgraded with Bells and materials for continued point generation. Upgrading a level 4 amenity to max level (level 5) initiates a 3-4 day construction period.
Optimizing Snack Gifting
Snacks offer another avenue for friendship point acquisition. Matching snack types to animal types maximizes point gains. For instance, a Plain Waffle (natural theme) yields more points when given to a natural-themed animal like Goldie compared to a non-natural animal like Agnes.
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 awards x20 Gold Treats. Alternatively, these treats can be obtained through requests or Isles of Style if all Villager Maps are already acquired. These treats are universally liked, providing +3, +10, and +25 friendship points respectively.
Animal Requests: Strategies for Success
Effective Gift Selection
Pete's Parcel Service allows for bulk request completion. Send items if available, earning friendship points without direct animal interaction. Requests often involve delivering collected items (fruit, bugs).
When choosing from multiple items, prioritize higher-value items for bonus rewards and experience. Rarer items yield 1500 Bells. Consider these high-value options:
- Perfect Fruit (excluding non-local)
- Snow crab
- Splendid alfonsino
- Amberjack
- R. Brooke's birdwing
- Luna moth
- White scarab beetle
Completing an animal's Special Request (at level 10 or 15) unlocks furniture requiring crafting. These requests are time-consuming (10+ hours) and costly (9000+ Bells plus materials) but provide substantial friendship points.
