    Hi! I have a few questions i have been trying to find out for a while now, i was wondering how do you have so many different islands do you have to purchase different switches? Or delete them and start over? Will you still have the deam address available to go back and see old islands whenever you want? Or How do you do that? If you have time to reply thank you so much!

  • @danascrossing
    @danascrossing4 күн бұрын

    Hi! I only own one Switch so when I complete an island, I upload the dream address and then delete the island and start the game over fresh with a new island. I'm working on my 9th island right now, but I can go back and dream of any of my previous 8 islands whenever I want via their unique dream addresses. When you delete an island and start over, you do lose everything you had from the previous island... (all items, diys, bells, etc), but I use treasure islands to get those things back quickly. I hope that helps. 🥰

    It seems that when you let go of a really dear thing to you , you’ll eventually get a better thing for you , Molly is really the nicest villager ,she was my ultimate dreamy when I started the game and i got her on my first villager hunt in the 15th ticket . She’s absolutely adorable and she reminds of my sweet little budgie that just passed out this year 🥹I can’ prevent myself from smiling when I see her around ,she’s just so precious to me and I’m keeping her forever ❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹

    How do you have so many islands? I’m thinking of restarting my first island because I messed up and you can only have 1 island per switch, but I don’t want to restart because there are a lot of memories from when I first played the game. I also don’t want to get another 300$ switch just so I can play without restarting. Is there another way?

  • @danascrossing
    @danascrossing23 күн бұрын

    I only have one Switch, but I completely restart my islands, and that's why I have so many. When I finish an island, I save the dream address and can go back and visit that island and villagers in a dream, but I can no longer make changes to it. I personally like to try different themes and have different villagers on the island, so I like to restart over each time, but I also use treasure islands to get all the items I need again quickly since you loose all your items and diys and just start the game completely from scratch. I am very attached to the deer villager Bam...(he was my starter on my first island)...and since I have so many cherished memories with him, he is the only villager I bring back to all my islands. If you don't want to restart your island completely because of the memories it holds, you can always try flattening your island and just rebuild again. But each island only has one Dream Address. I hope that helps. Thanks so much for watching the video and I hope you are having an amazing week. 🥰
