An Animal Crossing: New Horizons player has created an impressive and lavish entrance for their island's museum, featuring a fountain plaza and accenting waterfalls. The newest entry in Nintendo's fan-favorite life simulation franchise offers players plenty of ways to customize their island retreat and make it their own. Alongside the placement of houses and decorating, players can take full control of their new home by terraforming their Animal Crossing island, creating paths, altering cliffs, and even changing rivers and lakes. One creative fan used the game's customization tools to spice up their island's museum.
Animal Crossing: New Horizons' wealth of creative tools has often led many fans to make stunning creations on their own islands. The game lends itself to creating complex and detailed island designs, ranging from Christmas celebrations to Japanese floating fishing villages. Others have created tributes to their favorite games and media within Animal Crossing, both featuring popular Nintendo franchises like Pokemon and non-game properties like Breaking Bad. Now, one fan has re-shaped their island to develop a stunning entrance for their museum.
Reddit user KMK33133 shared their impressive museum creation on the Animal Crossing subreddit, showing off a stunning new entrance to the in-game museum. The dug-in museum entrance features a pair of ramps leading down to a small plaza, featuring a fountain and plenty of lights. Each side of the Animal Crossing museum's entrance features waterfalls running around the edge of the plaza, giving the building a fancy and refined feel. The user also showed off multiple screenshots of their museum at different times of day, showcasing the plaza when the light fixtures are turned on.
Many fans were quick to praise the user's creative museum entrance, particularly complimenting the perfect symmetry of the hand-crafted entrance. Multiple players commented on the difficulty of getting designs like the creator's museum entrance perfectly symmetrical within the game, with the user's creation nailing the symmetry angle. Others joked about the pun made within the title of the post, referring to Animal Crossing's trademark owl museum curator, Blathers.
Animal Crossing: New Horizons' creative and inventive fanbase has continued to sustain the game more than three years after its massive launch. New Horizons would debut as the fastest-selling game in the franchise and one of the most popular games on the Switch. An updated list from Nintendo earlier this month would reveal New Horizons remains the second best-selling game on the Switch, only trailing behind Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. New Horizons' deep customization systems continue to inspire players years after its launch as fans await the next entry in the franchise.
