Luck is a mechanic that affects your interactions in the game, such as how much bells you get from popping balloons or how often you trip when running around your island.
This mechanic was originally absent in the game and was only mentioned in passing in certain dialogues. It was finally added in the November Version 2.0 Update of the game.
Your luck is determined everyday by having Katrina read your fortune for 1,000 Bells. She will then reveal whether you'll have good luck or bad luck for the day!
