This Tomodachi Life special visitors events guide covers each visitor, their gifts, and how to increase your chances of seeing them.
The Traveling Salesman
A shady merchant who appears on the beach. He sells:
- Rare foods (Ambrosia, Elixir Soup)
- Legendary items (Golden Apple, Love Potion)
- Overpriced common items (avoid these)
He visits randomly. Check the beach daily.
The Time Traveler
A mysterious figure who offers to change the in‑game clock. Use with caution – time travel can disrupt events. Benefits:
- Skip waiting for crops or building upgrades.
- Trigger seasonal events out of season.
- Downside: May confuse Mii schedules.
Save before using his services.
The Fortune Teller
A mystic who predicts romantic outcomes. She will tell you:
- Which two Miis have the highest compatibility.
- Whether a confession will succeed (vague hints).
- Occasionally gives a Lucky Charm item.
Use her before planning a wedding.
The Traveling Singer
A wandering musician who sings a random song. After hearing it, your Miis may learn that song and perform it. Good for filling your Song Album.
Rare Weather Events
| Event | Effect |
|---|---|
| Meteor shower | Make wishes at the fountain – better outcomes. |
| Rainbow | Happiness boost for all Miis. |
| Thunderstorm | Miis may get scared and need comfort. |
Triggering Special Visitors
No guaranteed method exists, but you can increase odds:
- Keep your island active (check daily).
- Have many Miis (more interactions = more chances).
- Clear stuck events (complete any pending requests).
