Visiting characters[]
Several characters visit the player's Home Island during the Anniversary event. The characters can be seen running around and exploring the Home Island and can be interacted with.
A new character, the DJ, was also added during the first anniversary event. Upon interacting with the DJ, a party version of the song "Drunken Sailor" starts playing, and all the characters assemble in two rows in front of the cake and start to dance. If the player runs near the second row of characters, they stop dancing and form a conga line behind the player. At the end of the song, a giant firework is released from the cake and a large amount of confetti fell on the island and into the water.
During the second anniversary event, Coco the parrot and Bob the helicopter pilot were also added to the island.

Bob | Home Island | Hello! I’m Bob, your helicopter pilot. We’ve had so many flights together, but we haven’t had a chance to chat.And on top of that, fuel prices have increased so much that I might have to raise my rates... otherwise, I’ll go broke!And the helicopter... eh, what can I say? It hasn’t been serviced in years, no maintenance check... it’s just a matter of time before a crash happens.Oh well, no point in complaining. I'll grab a bite and get back to work. Let me know where we’re flying! | |
Yonek | Home Island | Hi! It's Yonek! Your personal coding wizard! Unbelievable how fast this year passed, right?
One year, 87 updates, and thousands of lines of code later – and you’re still with us! Glad you’re here. And you know what?... This is just the beginning! My head is full of ideas! Thanks for being part of this amazing adventure. It’s because of you that I get to do what I love – code, code, and code some more! Any special wishes for another year of fishing? Now, grab your rod and catch some giant fish, preferably one we don’t have in the database yet! Happy birthday to our game, and good luck out there! | |
