Festivale

Festivale is a spring event that happens in February or March. Pavé hosts the event in front of Town Hall. During the event, confetti will be raining down from the sky. As some neighbors will point out, there will be no snow or rain during the entire day. Festivale is quoted by Nintendo Power, as an 'all-day festival of color, costumes and craziness!' Festivale is based on Mardi Gras, the last day of Carnival, a festive season occurring before Lent.

In during the day, neighbors walking around the town will challenge the player in games, to win candy. However, if the player loses, he or she has to give some candy or 500 Bells. There is no limit of how many games can be played with the neighbors, but only the ones outside of their homes play games.

The games are as follows:


 * Imaginary Soccer - The neighbor will pretend to be a sports commentator and will act out a soccer scene. In response, the player have to select either I'll kick left/right or I'll protect left/right. The player has to score or protect two times in a row. This will result in the neighbor giving him or her a random colored item of candy.


 * Rock, Paper, Scissors - The neighbor will play a word game of rock, paper, scissors, and the neighbor will shout his or her answer. The player has to be the first to get it right two times in a row to win a randomly selected item of candy.


 * Coin Toss - The neighbor will pretend to flip a coin and will ask the player what side he or she thinks it will be facing up. Players have to do this 3 times in a row - if they lose at all, they lose the game. When they win, they can pick what color candy they want to receive.


 * What hand the candy is in - The neighbor will ask players which hand they think the candy is in. Their guess must be correct both times in the two games. Getting it wrong once will result in a loss. Once they win, they get a random piece of candy.


 * Psychic/ESP Test - The neighbor will ask players what the image in his or her mind is. Players must to get both questions right to get the candy. The first question is out of 3 shapes: either circle, triangle, and square. The second question is what fruit players think the villager pictures in his or her mind: apple, peach, orange, cherry and pear (occasionally, none will be an option in place of one of the fruit options). One wrong guess results in losing. If players win, they get to pick what color candy they receive.

The candy the player has won can be given to Pavé, who will exchange it for furniture in the Pavé Series. However, players must have three of the color candy he asks for.

In
In, the event is slightly different compared to the Festivale in City Folk. The villagers walking around the town can be found wearing a headdress with a flower at the top of it. They may also be seen singing (whistling) the town tune.

Unlike the objective in City Folk, the player must collect feathers instead of candy for Pavé. During the day, feathers can be seen falling from the sky along with confetti (the feathers can be obtained using a net). This event has a bit challenging objective due to difficulty of identifying the feather color from a confetti.

If the player obtains the specific number of feathers requested by Pavé or obtained the rainbow feather, then Pavé performs a dance and a special dance if the player has obtained the rainbow feathers. After Pavé finished dancing, he will give the player a piece of furniture from the Pavé Series.

There is also a new game that involves the player guessing what way will the villager move his/her head, by doing that at the same time.

Obtainable items
Feathers can be collected from the sky during Festivale; players use a net to catch them. After giving the feathers Pavé requested, players can receive furniture from the Pavé series. Shown below are the available feather colors feathers.


 * Pink
 * Red
 * Blue
 * Green

Rainbow is the rarest color. Consequently, Pavé accepts any rainbow feather regardless of what color he has requested.

Pavé will trade furniture for candy as well. However, he asks for 3 of a candy color: blue, red, yellow and green.
