Visit

Visits occur when an NPC villager asks to come to the player's house or requests that the player come to his or hers. These requests will occur occasionally and can be accepted or declined. If the request is accepted, the villager may want the visit to happen right away or ask the player for a time to meet.

If a villager wants to visit a player's house, the player must be inside his or her own house at the time that the villager is supposed to arrive. The visitor will arrive within a few seconds to a minute. If the player is going to a villager's house, then the player must go into the host's house at the proper time. Nothing much happens during a visit; the villager will just walk around the house. The villager will make comments on the player's house or tell the player about his or her house, possibly offering the player a piece of furniture.

A villager visiting a player's house will take his or her leave after being there for around 5 minutes and having seen all rooms. Players can leave a host villager's house by walking out of the door, which makes the villager ask the player what he or she thinks of the host's room. After a visit has passed, the player will receive a letter the next day from the villager, thanking the player for coming over or having the villager over. A present will usually be attached to these letters.

If the player is not inside his or her house at the time a villager is supposed to visit, the visit will be canceled. If the villager is talked to after that, he or she will be disappointed and will possibly get angry. Occasionally, although apparently rare, a villager who is supposed to visit a player's house will not show up. If that villager is talked to after that, he or she will apologize and give an excuse.
