One said, “Never knew this was a thing,” while another comment read, “Woah, I didn’t know that!”

Although this golden ladder doesn’t appear to have any extra bonuses attached, it is apparently still a rare find and begs the question as to what elseAnimal Crossing: New Horizonshas to offer after all these years.

However, one day all the discoveries will indeed be uncovered asNintendoare no longer updating the 2020 release. At least we can look back at the memories, I guess!
