An "Unhinged" Moment Contrasts With The Peace Of Animal Crossing

ACNH Is Often A Respite, But This Player Has Other Ideas

Setting up the perfect shot, thatweezel sat lying in wait with their camera positioned for when a villager would finally ring their bell to get sacrificed to Satan. But since you can't force villagers to interact with certain objects, the player had no idea how long they'd be sitting hoping for one of their villagers to come by and ring the bell, lurking for over an hour behind the trees. When the time came though, they revealed themselves with an axe and charged towards the unsuspecting target, contrasting the usual peace of ACNH.

With nearly four years since Animal Crossing's 2.0 update, it's no surprise that a lot of players have sought to create their own fun with in-game silliness, and the audience are greatly receptive to it. voodoopipu, among others, commented, "So unhinged lmao. I love it," expressing an appreciation for these little clips that still make ACNH feel fresh even today. DeLululu777 also chimed in to make the funny pun "perfectly executed," expressing just how well the player hid before revealing themselves with ultimate comic effect.

Animal Crossing Players Are Patient To Create Hilarious Moments

ACNH Players Find Their Own Way To Have Fun

Animal Crossing New Horizons Relaxing Setting

This isn't the only slightly horrifying moment that Animal Crossing players have captured before either, with another creator delivering on an underground fight club of gyroids. Set up to fight one another next to the slums, these quirky in-game items are hilarious to be used as decorative figures. While the game is obviously perfect for relaxing gameplay and gorgeous island decorating, there's a lot of humor to be found in what can be created too, particularly for the more patient players like this.

This isn't the only time that a little patience has delivered on a great in-game moment in ACNH either, as another player brilliantly recreated a lemonade stand on their island and captured Molly the duck in the frame. As a hilarious ode to "The Duck Song," the player jests that a duck walked up to the lemonade stand. Animal Crossing: New Horizons players are always coming up with new ways to have fun, and the people still making creations and sharing them online have kept the game thriving well beyond its years.
