'''Balls''' are objects in {{DnM}}, {{DnM+}}, {{PG}}, and {{DnMe+}} that appear in the [[player]]'s [[town]]. They can be kicked by the player if walked into. There are three types of balls: a soccer ball, basketball, and volleyball. If a ball is kicked into a body of water, it cannot be retrieved and will disappear if the player enters a building. If a ball is kicked into a hole, it will fall in, and it can be retrieved if hit with a [[shovel]].

Sometimes, a [[villager]] will ask the [[player]] to bring him or her a ball to play or train with. If the player brings one to him or her, the villager will reward them. Snowballs appear in every [[Animal Crossing (series)|Animal Crossing]] game to date, they will only appear during the winter, and can be used to create a [[Snowman]]. When a [[player]] finds a snowball, they must approach it and roll it around in the snow to make the snowball grow. In [[Animal Crossing (game)|Animal Crossing]] you must control a snowball much like a ball, kicking it around. However, in [[Animal Crossing: Wild World]], the player is able to hold the snowball and roll it around, which gives you more control over where the snowball goes. If the snowball ends up in the [[river]] or [[sea]], it will melt in the water. If a snowball is hit with an [[axe]] or a [[shovel]], it will break. It will also break if it lands in a hole or falls down a hill. Once two snowballs are large enough , you will be able to push them into each other and create a Snowman. If the Snowman likes the proportions of the snowball body you created for him, he will reward you with a piece of [[furniture]] from the [[Snowman Series]]. However, if you make the wrong proportions, the Snowman will act depressed and you will not recieve any reward.

The player standing next to a ball in Animal Crossing.

Balls are objects in Doubutsu no Mori, Doubutsu no Mori+, Animal Crossing, and Doubutsu no Mori e+ that appear in the player's town. They can be kicked by the player if walked into. There are three types of balls: a soccer ball, basketball, and volleyball. If a ball is kicked into a body of water, it cannot be retrieved and will disappear if the player enters a building. If a ball is kicked into a hole, it will fall in, and it can be retrieved if hit with a shovel. Balls cannot initially appear in acres that contain the player houses, Tom Nook's store, the train station, the lake, or the museum.

Villagers may ask the player to bring them a ball if they ask for work. In Doubutsu no Mori e+, Dung Beetles push balls around; if donated to the museum, the Dung Beetle will push around a ball in the bug exhibit.
