Description | ||||||
In Desert Island Escape, play as a team of three characters, each of whom have a special power. |
Desert Island Escape is a minigame in Animal Crossing: amiibo Festival and the Welcome amiibo update of Animal Crossing: New Leaf. It involves escaping a desert island by obtaining four parts of a raft (three logs and a sail), without running out of food supplies, and in a limited number of days. Monsters can fight the player.
In amiibo Festival, the minigame can be unlocked for 4 Happy Tickets after unlocking the plaza (itself unlocked after two rounds of the board game). It requires scanning three amiibo cards to play. The player will receive Happy Points as a reward.
In Welcome amiibo, the minigame can be accessed through the Wii U console furniture item. The characters used in the game can either be residents of the player's town or scanned with amiibo cards.[nb 1] The player will receive MEOW Coupons as a reward, as well as certain exclusive items based on certain achievements (see #Prizes).
