The Wishing Well is a wishing well, that is the center of most Festivities in the [[town]]. Apart from being where most Holidays celebrations take place, the [[player]]s can do several other things there, like check up on the status of the town, like if an area lacks a nice amount of plants. The Player can also apologize for not being able to do tasks they said they could do to the [[villager]]s of the town if they've moved away or such.

In {{PG}}, interacting with the wishing well allows the player to check the town's [[Environment rating|Field Rank]], as well as "apologize" to remove a [[favor]] item from their [[pockets]] if the villager the item belongs to has moved away. During events, Tortimer visits the wishing well, and for some events, props such as tables are set up in the area and villagers visit.

The Wishing Well only appears in {{PG}}, but the functions of the Well have been contributed to the [[Town Hall]] in both {{WW}} and {{CF}}, by using the Civic Centre. You cannot, however, apologize for not doing tasks. However, a fountain, much like the one in the city can be made by depositing 500,000 bells into the town fund. The player can also throw an [[axe]] into the well for a chance to recieve a silver or golden axe.

The wishing well is a location in the Animal Crossing series that appears in every first-generation Animal Crossing game. Interacting with the wishing well gives the player options, while the surrounding area acts as a hub for events.

Appearances[edit]

In Doubutsu no Mori and Doubutsu no Mori+[edit]

The shrine in Doubutsu no Mori and Doubutsu no Mori+

In Doubutsu no Mori and Doubutsu no Mori+, the wishing well is based on a Shinto shrine rather than a wishing well, and it is known as the shrine. In these versions, villagers gather in front of the shrine on New Year's Day and take turns ringing its bells, reflecting a tradition in real-world Japanese New Year's celebrations. The shrine offers the same in-game options as the wishing well in Animal Crossing.

In Animal Crossing[edit]

In Animal Crossing, interacting with the wishing well allows the player to check the town's Field Rank, as well as "apologize" to remove a favor item from their pockets if the villager the item belongs to has moved away. During events, Tortimer visits the wishing well, and for some events, props such as tables are set up in the area and villagers visit. If the town retains a perfect Field Rank for 15 days, selecting "How are things" makes Farley appear to give the player the golden axe.[nb 1]

In Doubutsu no Mori e+[edit]

In Doubutsu no Mori e+, the international wishing well design is retained and two features are added to it: the ability to access minigames if a Game Boy Advance is connected, and the ability to invite villagers to move to town via their e-Reader card.

The shrine in Dòngwù Sēnlín

In Dòngwù Sēnlín[edit]

In Dòngwù Sēnlín, the wishing well is based on a Temple of the Town God. It uses a similar model as the shrine from Doubutsu no Mori and Doubutsu no Mori+, although it features different textures, and it is missing the wooden extrusions from the roof and the bells from the front.
