In addition to being a creature-catching game, Aniimo also offers you a RV home and the ability to farm with your Aniimo friends. There are a series of quests you’ll need to complete in order to unlock this homesteading feature, and this guide will show you exactly how to find the NPC Fannie, get your RV, and level up your home.
Aniimo’s Homeland explained
Aniimo’s Homeland feature is a customizable mobile RV you can decorate, upgrade, and use for various productions. It might sound simple and cozy, but it can become a pretty in-depth farming and production center. This is like a separate side hustle in the game, earning you new in-game rewards as you upgrade and level up your home.
You’ll unlock farm plots and various production facilities, and this will allow your Aniimo’s to live and work alongside you. Things will start small with wheat farm plots and some trees to chop, but eventually you’ll have access to the materials and equipment to have your Aniimos producing cloth, baked goods, and other various items to sell.
How to unlock the Homeland in Aniimo
The Homeland feature is unlocked by starting and completing the “Prologue: Wondrous RV” questline provided by an NPC named Fannie. Fannie and her RV won’t appear on the map until you’ve progressed far enough in the story, so don’t worry about hunting her down yet.
You’ll need to progress through the main questline for a bit. Eventually, you’ll reach the Sea of Flowers. Keep doing the main questline here, and you’ll know you’re getting close to unlocking the RV quest when the story leads you to an NPC called Wally. Finish your quest with Wally, report back to Dr. Lewis, and then you should’ve completed your Student Level II level training.
This will unlock a brand-new series of quests in the Elite Trainer tab of your menus. Track the quest called “Own Your Homeland.” This will lead you to a blue house icon on your map. Fannie is waiting here to tell you all about your new RV home.
After speaking with her, you’ll get an RV, register it at a RV park, and you’ll get an in-depth tutorial on how to use and upgrade your RV and homeland plot.
Homeland production tips
The tutorial does a decent job of explaining the Homeland production features, but we’ll also provide some important tips to remember.
You’ll want to always make sure to add food to the food bowl under the Homeland’s Aniimo management tab. They’ll keep working without food, but they’ll be slower and sad. Sad unpaid labor is also icky.
Also, make sure you have enough Aniimos and the right combination of workers to handle each task on the farm.
Each Aniimo element type has uses for Homeland production, and these are as follows:
- Fire: Cooking, smelting, and supplying heat
- Grass: Planting seeds and gathering resources
- Water: Brewing, fetching water, and watering plants
- Earth: Reclaiming land and mining resources
- Lightning: Manipulating electricity
- Ice: Cooling your Homeland environment
- Wind: Controlling the wind to process products
- Dark: Harvesting crops, cutting down plants, pickling, and drying items
- Light: Illuminating your Homeland
Some Aniimo will have additional abilities:
- Hauling ability: Can pick up stockpiled produce and carry it to home storage
- Artisanship: Crafty Aniimo can create a variety of handcrafted goods
- Leisure: Playful Aniimo will happily produce various items while they play and have fun
- Perfumery: Aniimo that specialize in perfumery can work efficiently at the perfume station
Even if you leave your RV for a bit to do some exploring or story quests, make sure to keep checking in on your Homeland and the Aniimos there. Ensure that they have the seeds and other resources to do their tasks, take the time to sell goods, and send off any orders you can.
Finishing the Wonderus RV questline will unlock additional quests, and you’ll get decent rewards just for continuously upgrading your RV and Homeland plot.
