Timer

The Timer is not very essential, but it is a useful tool, especially when playing with friends. It appears in, , and. It can time 3, 5, 10, and 15 minutes. In City Folk, during a Wi-Fi connection, if someone starts a timer, another person can stop it. Also during Wi-Fi, when a timer is finished timing time, a thought bubble appears, revealing how many fish and bugs each player has caught. It also works in Wild World over Wi-Fi and wireless connection, but to a lesser extent. Interestingly, in City Folk, a timer buried by a shovel will go off on time while still buried.
