Bugs and hacks have been a blessing and curse for video games. The video game bugs can offer some weird things or ruin the fun experience. But sometimes, they give mind-blowing items, like an Animal Crossing: New Horizons bug that produced the most beautiful tree in the game.

What exactly are these bugs and hacks? In easier terms, these are nothing more than modified game codes. Sometimes, developers program a code for a purpose, but it does something different. Meanwhile, hacking is what the third parties do to modify the game’s code to gain an advantage.

The social-simulation game offers various kinds of trees. But the Star Fragment tree was one of the most unique and beautiful trees in the game’s history. However, this unique tree isn’t natural to the game. Nintendo never developed a Star Fragment tree, although they have Star Fragments in the game.

Players can get Star Fragments on the beach after they wished on a shooting star on the previous night. So, now the question is, where does this Star Fragment tree come from? It was just a bug that modified the Money Tree’s code. As a result, instead of bags of Nooks, there were Star Fragments on the tree.

Nintendo fans react to the Star Fragment Tree

Undoubtedly, this unique tree caught everyone’s attention. Some fans shared their disappointment in losing these trees. Nintendo later removed this bug from the game and replaced the Star Fragment Tree with the Money Tree. Further, some fans also remembered the drama surrounding these trees as many players were hunting down islands with them to report. Let’s look at some of those fan reactions.

Players can still get this unique tree using a moded Animal Crossing game. So, now players who want these trees would have to jailbreak their Switch consoles.
