Luck


 * 1) REDIRECT Lucky

The definition of Luck is "Success or failure apparently brought by chance rather than through one's own actions." However, in the Animal Crossing Series this is a game mechanic that the player can influence.

The Effects of Luck
The effects of Luck only change certain aspects of the game and the amount of Luck varies every day. Most notably, Luck effects the spawn rate of Bugs, Fish, Ore Rocks, and Bells that fall from Trees. Luck also has the ability to change the player's Popularity with their Villagers, Luck for obtaining rare items or earning more Bells and even how often a player may Trip while running.

What Alters Luck
Things the player can do that are known to better their luck includes various methods. One of the more obvious ways is to wear items that Katrina says will make the player lucky for that day. Alternatively the player can find out their lucky item of the day by using the Lovely Phone from the Lovely Series. A player with good Feng Shui will have better luck regardless of what day it is. Some items boost luck no matter where they are placed and some clothing like the King Tut Mask or Four-Leaf Clover change luck when worn.
