This guide explains how to obtain and utilize snacks in Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp to maximize friendship levels with animals. Efficient snack management is crucial for faster progression.
Acquiring Snacks in Pocket Camp
Gulliver's Ship: The Primary Source
Gulliver's Ship offers the most reliable method for obtaining snacks. Sending him to special "gold islands" (identified by Villager Maps) yields significant rewards. Completing a special island grants 20 Gold Treats as a bonus. If all Villager Maps are already collected, sending the ship to any island on the map will provide various snacks. Isle of Style islands consistently provide 3 Gold Treats as souvenirs plus 3 as a completion bonus. Only three islands are visible at a time; a daily free refresh is available. Cargo, craftable in the furniture catalog, is required; some islands necessitate specific furniture types (e.g., Exotic Island prefers exotic-themed furniture). Island snack types are previewable via a magnifying glass icon. Longer expeditions (6 hours) generally yield more treats.
Alternative Snack Sources
- Requests and visitor gifts occasionally provide Bronze, Silver, or Gold Treats.
- Daily Goals often reward Silver and Gold Treats.
- Blathers's Treasure Trek (using Auto-Trek with 5 Leaf Tokens) provides Bronze, Silver, and Gold Treats from Villager Maps.

Giving Snacks to Animals
Maximizing Friendship Points
Always match snack themes to animal themes for maximum friendship points. Regular treats are theme-agnostic. Gold Treats offer the highest point value (25 points). Ten Gold Treats can boost a level 1 animal to level 15. Check animal themes via their icons at your campsite or in your Contacts/Pete's Parcel Service. Select "Have a snack!" (highlighted red) to give a treat.
