Friend of the Forest Achievement in Thank Goodness You’re Here!

To unlock the Friend of the Forest achievement, you need to interact with five different animals at different locations throughout Thank Goodness You’re Here!

Here are the animals you need to interact with:

  • Town Vole: Found in the storage room of Mother Megg’s Buttery Goods which is a store located in the first major area of the town.
  • Mole: The mole can be found in a garden in the bottom right of the Town Square. Hit the dirt mound a few times for the Mole to come out.
  • Singing Mice Group: Interact with the singing mice group at least once. Interact with them all to unlock The Rat Pack achievement as well.
  • Owl: The owl can be found in a tree hole near the farm
  • Ducks: The ducks are found in the river, and usually show up after you have interacted with the toaster.

After you have interacted with all five of the animals in Thank Goodness You’re Here! the Friend of the Forest achievement will unlock.

There are 32 achievements in total, and this is one of the more involved ones. Apart from this, Think F.A.S.T. and Patience is a Virtue are also a bit tricky.
