Crack

Cracks, as noted by Tom Nook are an area of the ground that "appears unusual". Each day, two cracks (sometimes called Starfish due to their shape) will pop up in the Town. These cracks may hold Fossils or Gyroids if dug up with a Shovel.

Any item buried in a hole will form a crack, such as furniture or shells, except Fruit (and on some occasions Bells depending on the game) which instead create Saplings.

In and the other GCN games villagers sometimes bury Furniture in cracks, and will subsequently post a message on the Bulletin Board remarking about it.

Pitfalls randomly appear at the start of the game within cracks, and when a Player walks too close the crack will disappear and the Player will fall into the hole.
