This guide covers efficient experience farming and animal request strategies in Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp. Reaching Camp Manager Level 76 unlocks all animals (excluding Villager Map exclusives). Leveling up becomes increasingly challenging, necessitating consistent request completion and maximizing friendship points. Leveling provides Leaf Tokens and inventory expansions.
How to Farm Experience
Tips for Leveling Up Quickly
Interacting with map animals yields +2 friendship points. Animals present always have requests. Completing requests, conversing with animals, gifting, and outfit changes boost friendship levels, granting Camp Manager experience upon animal level-ups.
Animals rotate every three hours, presenting new requests. Engage with all animals before the rotation.
Campsite/cabin animals remain until dismissed. Warping during the three-hour cycle reveals visiting animals for additional friendship points. The "Tell me a story!" option sometimes triggers gift-giving, awarding +6 points regardless of gift preference.
Friendship points are only earned via red dialogue options. Repeated selection of the same option yields no further points.
Amenities
Amenities provide simultaneous friendship point gains. Animals matching the amenity type receive increased experience. Placement of target animals at the campsite before amenity completion maximizes benefits.
Amenities require crafting time (days). Leveling up amenities with Bells and materials sustains friendship point generation. Level 4 amenities can be upgraded to max level (level 5), incurring a 3-4 day construction period.
Giving Snacks
Snacks are giftable items. Matching snack and animal types maximizes point gains. For instance, Plain Waffles (natural theme) yield more points with natural-themed animals (e.g., Goldie) than non-natural animals (e.g., Agnes).
Gulliver's Ship unlocks Villager Maps from golden islands, redeemable at Blathers's Treasure Trek for Bronze, Silver, and Gold Treats. Completing a golden/villager island grants 20 Gold Treats. Alternatively, Requests or Isles of Style provide Treats. Treats are universally liked, awarding +3, +10, and +25 points respectively.
Animal Requests Tips
Optimal Gift Selection
Pete's Parcel Service allows bulk request completion. Send items to earn points without direct animal interaction. Most requests involve delivering collected items (fruit, bugs).
Single-item requests allow selective gifting. Higher-value items provide bonus rewards and experience (1500 Bells for rarer items). Recommended items include:
- Perfect Fruit (excluding non-local)
- Snow crab
- Splendid alfonsino
- Amberjack
- R. Brooke's birdwing
- Luna moth
- White scarab beetle
Level 10 (or 15 for some) animals unlock Special Requests, requiring crafted furniture (9000+ Bells, 10+ hours). Completion yields substantial friendship points.
