Animal Crossing: New Horizons isn’t a PvP title, but fans are finding increasingly inventive ways to compete with one another. From net tag to bass-fishing tournaments, turning the pastoral nature of island living into an arena sport is easier than you might think. Musical chairs is the latest competitive sport to find its way into New Horizons.
Fans are using DIY chairs or good old-fashioned tree stumps to play. Flute pipes and emotes are used to facilitate pretty sophisticated versions of a game that most people probably haven’t played IRL since childhood. On the Animal Crossing subreddit, users are sharing their experiences.
It may sound silly, but musical chairs is no joke. Tournaments are being set up with sizable prize pools of over 100,000 bells. In Reddit user Tetratera’s tournament, seven villagers and six tree stumps quickly turned into two villagers fighting for sitting room on a single toilet.
It’s not an esport yet, but Tetratera is actively looking for more players to participate in musical chairs tournaments. There’s even a Discord server called Musical Chairs that shares information regarding when and where upcoming tournaments are taking place. If you have extra bells to spare or want to see if you have what it takes to compete, Musical Chairs offers an open invitation to all Animal Crossing players.
Musical chairs is just one example of how players are using Animal Crossing to satisfy competitive cravings while cooped up inside. As mentioned, fishing competitions are a popular option among players looking to add some urgency to their next fishing excursion. Butterfly-net tag is another way to enjoy time with friends.
Part of Animal Crossing’s allure is the freedom it gives players to live life on their own terms and at their own pace. Tom Nook puts zero pressure on you. If you wanted to, you could live in a tent for the next ten years and pay off none of your moving fees. What you do with your time on the island is up to you. For some, “what should I do?” is a question that Tom Nook can’t always answer.
