Hackers in the Animal Crossing series are people who play Animal Crossing series games using game-altering devices, such as the Action Replay.

Hackers in Animal Crossing

Since there is no online play in Animal Crossing, hackers cannot do much damage to other players' towns globally, although they can give themselves any item in the game, as well as jump, which allows them to reach normally inaccessible places, including the island without a Game Boy Advance.

Hackers in Animal Crossing: Wild World

Seeds were a major threat to other player's towns in Animal Crossing: Wild World before online play was discontinued. Also, hackers in that game had access to a larger variety of tools and map editors to give themselves large sums of money and items, and a town layout of their choice. Action Replay codes are commonly used in Animal Crossing: Wild World.

Hackers in Animal Crossing: City Folk

Although the seed threat is diminished in Animal Crossing: City Folk, there are still hackers who play the game. Most use ACToolkit to customize the town layout, inventory, etc., and on the whole this works similarly to hacking in Animal Crossing: Wild World. Hackers may give even non-hackers DLC, which can appear in shops like the Able Sisters.

Hackers in Animal Crossing: New Leaf

The Nintendo 3DS is commonly hacked with homebrew and Luma3ds, typically used to world edit and save edit files for Animal Crossing: New Leaf. It can also be "hacked" with an Action Replay, being a more simple option with no known consequences compared to the possibility of the DS "bricking" using the homebrew method. Injecting and extracting saves is extremely common in the AC community.

Abilities

Hackers can perform a variety of things to play around with the game

Here are some of the abilities hackers can do:

• Retrieve any object, including unobtainable objects.
• Gain any amount of Bells, in their inventory and savings account.
• Regrow the grass (in Animal Crossing: City Folk).
• Change the layout of their town.
• Create custom villagers.
• Create custom objects, and HDLC.
• Jump, and therefore reach inaccessible areas, such as the top of cliffs.
