In honour of May Day, Animal Crossing: New Horizons has introduced a new island with a maze filled with fruits, Bell Vouchers, and countless dead ends that players can explore until May 7.

Animal Crossing: New Horizons started the month by celebrating May Day, a public holiday devoted to labourers and the working class. Starting May 1, New Horizons has added a new labyrinth island with some free goodies and brought back Rover the cat, a character that appeared in previous games.

Though the labyrinth itself isn’t too hard to navigate (at least once you get your bearings), things become a bit more complicated if you’re interested in snagging up all of its rewards. Here’s how to make your way through the maze and get all of the Bell Vouchers.

How To Start The May Day Tour

First off, you will need to head over to Resident Services and speak to Tom Nook, who will tell you about the May Day Tour and provide you with a May Day Ticket. According to Nook, the tour is “vacation from your island vacation,” which sounds fun but still requires some work if you want to collect all of the tour’s goodies.

It’s also important to note that this ticket can only be used once by players. However, if you’re sharing your game with others, you can rest assured that you will all be able to visit the island and obtain its rewards.

After you’ve spoken to Nook, you can head over to the airport, where the ticket will be waiting for you, and depart for the May Day island.

How To Get Through The Maze

Once you arrive, you’ll notice a large labyrinth filled with various obstacles in front of you. At first, the challenge might not seem very difficult, but you’ll soon find out that you’ve been stripped of all of the items you’re holding once you land. However, there’s no need to worry — the maze has everything you need.

At the beginning of the maze, you’ll find a shovel lying on the floor. After you pick it up, you can use it to remove the shrub on the left that is blocking the way to a fruit. We also recommend removing the two shrubs at the bottom left (between the start of the labyrinth and Wilbur) — you’ll find out why later.

After that, you’ll have to eat the fruit in order to dig up the tree blocking the rest of the maze. Next, head straight, over the first hole in the ground, past another tree blocking two fruits, over a second hole, before turning left. You will come across three pieces of wood, which you can collect. After that, go back the way you came, towards the middle path you walked previously, but this time walk upwards before you get to the first hole. You will then come across a hole on your left, which you can jump across. You’ll come across another tree blocking a section of the labyrinth but you can ignore it for now. Instead, travel downwards, picking up the tree branch, and follow that path until you come across three single bushes.

You’ll notice three tree branches on the other side of three holes in front of the single bushes. You’ll need to collect as many crafting tools as you can, so jump across each of the three holes and make sure you pick up the tree branches, stone, and worn axe. After that, go back the way you came from and use the worn axe to cut down the first tree you come across (blocking two fruits). The axe will immediately break after you do this, but that’s okay — you need the fruit more. After you’ve collected the fruits, head back down the path (where you just came from) and jump over the first hole surrounded by single bushes.

You’ll then come across a rock. Use your shovel and a fruit to destroy it, pick up the iron nugget, ignore the tree, and head all the way back to the center path and take the first rightmost path. You’ll see a rock blocking your path, destroy it with your shovel and fruit, and pick up the fruit and two DIY recipes. After that, eat a fruit and dig up the tree blocking your way, which will give you access to a DIY workbench, where you can craft an axe.

From there, it’s pretty smooth sailing. Head upwards and go left, jumping over the three holes near the single bushes. In front of you, you’ll see a tree blocking two fruit. Cut it down, collect the fruit, and head upwards, to the left of the maze, where you’ll come back to the center path. Jump over the hole near the leftmost single bush and follow the path. You’ll come across a tree, which you’ll need to cut down, and another fruit. After that, you’ll see three trees in a row, cut them all down and make your way to the end of the maze.

There, you’ll find Rover the cat at a campsite surrounded by flowers and shrubs. Rover will reward you with Rover’s Briefcase, a furnished briefcase covered in stickers. Though it’s nice to see Rover, we’re still not certain what his appearance means and whether or not he’ll return at some point again.

Collecting All Of The Bell Vouchers (And What To Do If You Can’t)

At Rover’s camp, you can dig up the shrub on the left-hand side, which is blocking four Bell Vouchers. After that, you’ll have to dig up the shrubs located at the top of the island, on the left-hand side. Continue left, making your way along the outskirts of the island. At the bottom left, you’ll see three stones blocking the path. Eat the remaining fruit and destroy the stones with your shovel to collect five Bell Vouches.

There are nine Bell Vouchers in total, so you’ll need three remaining fruits after you’ve completed the maze. If you don’t have enough, you can use the Rescue Service to transport back to the beginning of the labyrinth, but you’ll have to do it all over again. Each Bell Voucher can be sold for 3,000 Bells, so you’ll get a total 27,000 Bells if you collect them all.

How To Get Your Rewards

After you’ve collected all of the Bell Vouchers and have spoken to Rover, you can head back to the plane and back to your island. The rewards (Rover’s Briefcase and the Bell Vouchers) will be sent to you in the mail. Unfortunately, anything else you pick up on the island will disappear from your inventory once you return to your island. So, if you’re like us and spent time digging up shrubs and hoping to keep them, try not to be too disappointed.

Animal Crossing: New Horizon’s May Day Tour is accessible to players from May 1-7, so be sure to go check it out while you can.
