The short answer is: no, Brewster does not take your Gyroids in any of the Animal Crossing games. While he plays a significant role in the series, particularly with his cafe, The Roost, and his special connection to Brewstoids, he is not involved in Gyroid storage or collection. This may be disappointing to players hoping for a designated place to keep their extensive Gyroid collections, but it’s important to understand his role and the functions of these intriguing furniture items.
Understanding Brewster’s Role
Brewster is a beloved character known for his calm demeanor and love of coffee. He runs The Roost cafe, a place for villagers and players to relax and enjoy a cup of freshly brewed coffee. In Animal Crossing: New Leaf, you can unlock various interactions with Brewster after purchasing a few coffees. After three days of sitting in, he’ll offer you a take-out option, and after six days, he might offer you a part-time job making coffees for other villagers and special characters. These interactions enhance the game’s experience and build a unique friendship with Brewster.
In Animal Crossing: New Horizons, Brewster’s role is further expanded with the introduction of the Brewstoid, a special gyroid modeled after him. However, even with this closer association, he does not directly deal with storing or collecting other Gyroids. His primary function remains focused on the cafe and his unique brand of hospitality.
What to Do With Your Gyroids
If Brewster isn’t the answer to Gyroid storage, what are you supposed to do with them? Here’s the breakdown:
-
Displaying Gyroids: In Animal Crossing: New Horizons, Gyroids are treated as musical furniture items. You can place them in your home, on your island, or anywhere you can place furniture. This allows you to incorporate them into your unique designs and styles.
-
Musical Synchronicity: Gyroids in New Horizons also produce distinct sounds that can be synchronized with K.K. Slider songs. This allows you to create unique musical patterns and atmospheric settings within your game.
-
Collect them: Gyroids are obtained by digging them up from cracks in the ground after rain or snow. The more you play, the more you can collect, leading to vast collections if desired.
-
Trade and Share: You can also trade gyroids with other players to help you complete your collection. You can visit their island to find gyroids that you need or have them over to your island to pick up some of your duplicates.
The Enigmatic Brewstoid
The Brewstoid is a unique gyroid, modeled after Brewster and is the rarest to find. This gyroid is a special reward, obtained from Brewster, most often after purchasing a certain amount of coffees. It stands out because it cannot be customized, nor can you purchase another from the Nook Shopping app. You have to be very careful with this item since you won’t be able to get another! This makes it a highly sought-after item for many players.
Where do Gyroids Come From?
Gyroids are often found buried in the ground after rain or snow. These items are typically found when you see a specific star shaped marker on the ground. Once you dig this up, you can obtain a gyroid and grow more!
