[[File:Animal Island screenshot.jpg|right|thumb|300px|The island as it appears on the Game Boy Advance]]The '''Island''', also known as '''Animal Island''', is a location that first appears in {{AF+}}. It later reappears in its port, {{PG}}
and later in
{{AFe+}}
with new islanders
. It is separate from the main [[town]], therefore getting its own name. In ''Animal Forest +'' and ''Animal Crossing'', a [[Nintendo GameCube Game Boy Advance Cable]] and a [[Game Boy Advance]] are needed to get to the island, while they are not in
''Animal Forest e+''. It is also featured on the upcoming {{NL}}

The islands [[weather]] is always [[summer]], regardless of the main town's weather. Once on the island, the [[player]] will soon discover their single island [[:Category:Islanders|villager]], who can be one of several island-exclusive villagers, and their island bungalow. The bungalow can be customized in the same way as the player's [[house]]. There is no [[Gyroid (outdoor)|gyroid]] outside the bungalow, so it is not possible to save on the island. Outside, the player will find multiple flowers and [[Coconut Palm|coconut trees]]. They can interact with the islander, catch season-exclusive fish and bugs, and take the coconuts to sell back in their own town.

The player can leave the island and return to the mainland by speaking to [[Kapp'n]]. Kapp'n will ask the player if they would like to save their island to their Game Boy Advance. If the player chooses to do so, they must set up the connection to the Game Boy Advance once more. Kapp'n will save the island to the Game Boy Advance. Once the island is loaded onto the Game Boy Advance, the player can interact with the villager on the island, helping them catch fish, eat fruits or coconuts left on the ground, or catch flying presents, all while their character returns to their home village.

The changes made to the island in the Game Boy Advance can then be uploaded back to the [[Nintendo GameCube]] the next time the player goes to visit the island. This can be a useful tactic for making [[Bells]], as the island villagers can drop slowly increasing amounts of Bells for the player's interactions. The player can also [[tan]] when outside in sunny weather as the climate is perpetually mainland summer. However, overexposure to the sun can cause the player a sunburn. Sunburns can be prevented if the player equips
and
[[umbrella]].

==Getting to the Island==

The island returns as a regular feature in {{NL}}, with the player once again getting there via Kapp'n. The Player arrives at the Island's Shack, run by Kapp'n's famliy, [[Kuko]], [[Geko]] and [[Kuku]]. Here, the player can play Mini Games hosted by [[Tortimer]], where they receive medals depending
on
their performance. Using these medals
,
the players can buy items
and
souvenirs from
the
shop on the island, which they can take back to their town. Other players visiting the town through Wi Fi can join the player on the boat ride, and partake in Mini Games with them. If no other players have accompanied them through Wi Fi, Mini Games will be played with random players online through matchmaking.
−
# Jump (Z) onto
the
your
Island.

At
the
Shack the player can also store
up
to 40 items to take back with them, and sell excess items to Kuko for 5% of the regular price
.
The player is unable to bring anything of their own inventory with them to
the
island, however, a Gyroid outside the shack will provide the player with tools to use,
and
the player will get all their items back upon exiting the island
.
+
+
Like it's last appearance,
the Island
always has summer weather, with summer fruit, fish, and bugs always in season
.
In addition to fishing and bug catching, the Gyroid provides the player
with
a [[diving suit]]
,
allowing them to [[dive]] for fish and other sea life. The player
can
also purchase a diving suit to use at their own town with the medals they've won.

The island returns in {{NL}} as a place where friends can visit to play minigames hosted by a retired [[Tortimer]], which they call 'tours'. This now eradicates the need for players to create their own minigames as things such as [[Balloon Pop]].
−
When players complete a 'tour', they are given a certain number of medals, depending on how well all the players performed. Using these medals, the players can buy items and souvenirs from the shop on the island, which they can take home. The store appears to be run by other Kappas/Turtles like [[Kapp'n]]. In the top left corner is the desk where players go to choose the tour they want to play. If they don't have others to play with, they are able to play with random players online through matchmaking.[[File:Break_Out_Tour.jpg|thumb|"Break Out!
