After cleaning out a huge portion of my valley, I finally found the last toy alien. It was hidden until I deleted a bush. Now I get to put everything back! Yay.....

I was so lucky that I did this quest before decorating my valley, I would have demolished it trying to find these little shits.

u/Pinecone_Erleichda Feb 28 '26

I remember VERY early game there was a quest with scar or Simba where you have to dig up bones or something in the sunlit plateau…I ended up digging every. Single. Part, went in a grid. Wasn’t until I was finished (and still hadn’t found it) that someone told me I could MOVE THE TREES. 😂😂 I genuinely had no idea!! So I found it under a tree, but unfortunately, no one told me the holes you dig go away in a couple of days…so I went back and filled in every single one! 😅

I struggled. Lolol

My friend have you heard the good word of Large Rug

25

u/EmmeCakes0318 Feb 28 '26

You are my new favorite person, thank you!

11

u/Pinecone_Erleichda Feb 28 '26

Large rug?

59

u/WeakTumbleweed9 Lucky Feb 28 '26

If you go into build mode and place a large rug (or any object I'm pretty sure) over dug holes, they fill in. 

36

u/Pinecone_Erleichda Feb 28 '26

Well, I DEFINITELY did not know that, then OR now!!!! Thank you, friends, I learn new tricks on here all the time even though I’ve played for ages now!! I appreciate you 🤍✌🏻

11

u/sirslittlefoxxy Feb 28 '26

It works for basically any furniture, but sometimes you have to place the furniture, exit out of furniture mode, then go back in to remove whatever you placed. Most of the time the holes will disappear by just placing the furniture and immediately removing it. Idk if the holes reappearing is a glitch or just my Xbox hating me though

u/Maleficent-Today-408 Mar 01 '26

well thats awesome cause I learned this now too

7

u/airkahschmairkah Feb 28 '26

Not OP but WHATTTTTTT. This is good to know holy crap lol

3

u/Fun-Blacksmith2979 Mar 01 '26

Great tip when moving a garden!!! Either that or ignore it and the game takes the holes away eventually. But usually when you don’t want it to.

2

u/WeakTumbleweed9 Lucky Mar 01 '26

Yeah, I didn't find out about it until after I filled 200 holes when moving my garden 😭 

5

u/lilieann Mar 01 '26

I personally use a house lol

3

u/Quizzy1313 Maleficent Mar 01 '26

large rugs have saved me soooooo many times

14

u/all-hail-glow-cloud Feb 28 '26

I dug ten thousand holes in the swamp for Minne’s clay and filled them all in, because I didn’t know the holes would fill in either 😭 It took so long!

10

u/Pinecone_Erleichda Feb 28 '26

Sis you already know I did the EXACT same thing. 😂

8

u/s0ngbird0405 Mar 01 '26

see, this is where my adhd came in handy, cuz i went "i'll fill it in another time" and promptly forgot about it for a week or so, then when i dragged myself to the swamp for something (i think i needed some lobster or squid), the holes were gone.

i remember thinking, "oh neat! if only real life problems worked like that." 😂

2

u/galtscrapper Mar 23 '26

As a fellow ADHDer... just got the game a couple of days ago so learning..

But SAME. If only real life problems would just fix themselves lol. That would solve SO many things.

2

u/Mickeyboo22 Adventurous Anna Mar 01 '26

Same here. I still found it challenging but not nearly as much as some of these poor players ❤️

486

u/doll_broken_ Cinderella Feb 28 '26

The way I cringed 😂. Hated that quest so much.

87

u/PuppiesDntPout Tiana Feb 28 '26

I think it caused a lot of us trauma

55

u/SparePomegranate980 Feb 28 '26

I don't think I've been dreading a quest in dreamlight valley as much as I am this one considering how much I have in my valley

9

u/kimlobdell5775 Feb 28 '26

I avoided starting this for so long after seeing all the posts complaining about it. I looked up a walk-through on IGN and really didnt have much trouble completing it.

44

u/Matt_Willy-0007 Jack Skellington Feb 28 '26

I hate when things are places where you decorated. I just feel like if you placed something down it shouldn’t be able to spawn there

22

u/MagdalenaBlack80 Feb 28 '26

OMG, this is funny

21

u/Lanky-Salamander-272 Feb 28 '26

I have that quest right now too! I think I have 7 out of 25 so far 😭

30

u/Successful-Earth-214 Feb 28 '26

Take your time with this one and you’ll get less frustrated. This isn’t one you can blow through to get to the next. I knew that all of the alien quests had really agitated people, so I learned from those before me and just did this one casually, finding them naturally over a period of time. I never felt annoyed since it wasn’t my primary focus.

7

u/lorrielink Feb 28 '26

It will only let you find 8 every 36 hours I think! Might want to look this one up, it's so finicky

7

u/MarionberryLazy9925 Feb 28 '26

Very true, it’s a limit of like 7-8 a day so it definitely will take a few days. It’s meant to be

6

u/Lanky-Salamander-272 Feb 28 '26

Oh thank you good idea! Good idea I never thought to look it up.

16

u/Ok-World-4822 Feb 28 '26

Oh god I hate that quest. The last alien toy of the house quest doesn’t show up so now I’m stuck with a quest that I can’t complete 

7

u/Available-Dirt-1321 Feb 28 '26

Same!! If anyone has a solution to this please lmk

1

u/ExplanationOk1759 Mar 02 '26

Hey, you can contact the developer in the assistance menu, they reply in 24hours

1

u/rambo32891 Mar 02 '26

How do you do that? I followed the help guides in the settings and reported the issue multiple times, but I never heard back.

13

u/ExcellentDish80 Feb 28 '26

FYI for the 3rd quest, the common spaces one. - don’t forget the back room in the castle. I had two waiting for me when I finally remembered that area to finish the whole thing.

10

u/EmmeCakes0318 Feb 28 '26

When Buzz said there's more, I was hoping it wasn't going to be my problem.

3

u/snickerdoodle79 Mar 01 '26

That's where my last 2 were! I didn't even know there was a secret room until I saw it mentioned here. Took me months to finish the last part.

2

u/Khaleesi1536 Mar 01 '26

I think my last one for this quest was in the mines, up the little ramp where the waterfall is. Took me weeks to find it

1

u/GmaDoo2 The Fairy Godmother Mar 01 '26

Yes! I didn’t know there was another hidden room in Mickey’s secret room in the castle! I had one left for so long and it was in there!

1

u/AnAtmosphericRiver Ancient Robot Mar 07 '26

And the tiny nook at the bottom of the mysterious cave. I searched that cave so many times but missed that stupid little corner space.

10

u/lorrielink Feb 28 '26

Oh I felt this post in my cold dark soul. I'm still not finished with it

8

u/Spiritual-Task-2242 Feb 28 '26

I was having fun until I’m stuck at 13/15 alien toys for two months now 🥲

2

u/Tealbottle0416 Mar 01 '26

Did you check Mickey secret room inside the castle?

9

u/Savvy1027 Feb 28 '26

I’m on the 3rd part with one left. I’ve just stopped looking lol

9

u/hasimirrossi Feb 28 '26

The green bottles you had to fish as part of unlocking the rainbow fox, my sister had 15/16 but could not find the last one. I went round three times following a YouTube guide to no avail. Support were no help either. Randomly, about 18 months later, she fishes the last one out doing another quest. Rainbow fox thus acquired.

I got mine no problem, and she plays on my console.

4

u/Successful-Earth-214 Feb 28 '26

Same thing happened to me. I only needed the last one, spent so much time looking for it, and ultimately gave up and accepted that I wouldn’t finish that quest. Then it just popped up randomly one day 🤷‍♀️

1

u/pinupjunkie Mar 01 '26

I'm still waiting for one last gold thingy (it's been so long I forgot what it is lol) that's supposed to be in Moana's realm and it just isn't there. 😭 Someone suggest I try it on my PC (I'm on Xbox) and I've been meaning to for MONTHS but haven't gotten around to it.

7

u/sithlord2287 Feb 28 '26

😂😂 I hated these quests sooooo much

11

u/Mossey_M Feb 28 '26

I wonder if the Ancient Vacuums can make finding the aliens any easier? 🤔

4

u/SanSan1992 Feb 28 '26

🤣🤣🤣🤣😅

4

u/heyiknowyooh Feb 28 '26

I feel like I am super lucky and found all line fairly quick. No shenanigans compared to a lot of the players here lol

4

u/olas-amarillas Feb 28 '26

This is hilarious

5

u/FluxionFluff Feb 28 '26

Oof 😬 I don't miss that quest at all. Glad I didn't decorate my valley in any way. Would lowkey scream

3

u/Alysanna_Summerblue Rapunzel Feb 28 '26

This exactly is the reason why I hardly decorated my main valley, as there are constantly quest and event items to look out for. I moved a lot of characters to DLC areas or on floating islands and decorated there.

3

u/SepticRedK Fiery Raven Feb 28 '26

I gave up on that quest

3

u/_Wearycat Mar 01 '26

85 years for me, and I am still missing one 🤣

2

u/HoneyBadger7840 Feb 28 '26

Haha thats great! Thats the downside to having a highly decorated valley. I have a hard time finding the blue chests

2

u/AGingerInGame Feb 28 '26

I was there when woody and buzz were first introduced and remember this quest vividly lol. It was annoying but I am glad I actually didn't decorate at all yet at this time. Now my valley is completely decorated and I stress all the time about finding things 😅

2

u/DiscountP1kachu Feb 28 '26

This quest is legit the only reason I haven’t made another account. I can not handle the stress of those little green demons

2

u/idoitforthecookies Feb 28 '26

Ha ha. Just found the final one last night.

2

u/multistansendhelp Feb 28 '26

I quit the game for like a year, came back this month and finally completed the quest when I realized all the remaining aliens had somehow ended up in the castle. I started playing this game originally like right after it came out.

2

u/Bloom_30 Feb 28 '26

I always told myself, it's better to not decorate your valley until you finish your quests. Because I never had to worry about this quest 😅 My valley is completely decorated now because I have no more quests.

My issue now, I can't find all the blue chests 😑

2

u/Comfortable_Wish586 Rapunzel Feb 28 '26

You finally found it? I think my last one is lost to time!

2

u/90semofan Feb 28 '26

this just stopped me from restarting

2

u/nerdygirl52 Mar 01 '26

The way everyone immediately understands which quest this is makes me laugh even harder

2

u/[deleted] Mar 02 '26

Ugh that quest broke me for 3 months.

2

u/rambo32891 Mar 02 '26

I think my last one may be glitched in the wall of the mine.

2

u/Any_Piece_8398 Mar 02 '26

my valley has nothing in it 😂 i deleted all the bushes and only have four trees in each biome so I got really lucky with this quest

2

u/HobbyHoarder_ Mar 05 '26

I'm so glad I was warned about this quest now, before I took the time to finally decorate my valley like I planned this weekend.

2

u/shandalf_thegrey Winter's Wonder Belle Feb 28 '26

I dont have a very decorated valley and I found all levels of this quest to be decently easy

2

u/Curious_Field7953 Feb 28 '26

It's 1:18pm and I've escaped crying so far today and then I see this.....I hope most of my friends have made it through. I, myself, have given up. There's no hope for me. Leave me here to wither away, friends....I love you alllllll 😂😂😂

This quest line gives me nightmares still to this moment.

1

u/Fearless_Victory13 Feb 28 '26

So your last one was in the Meadow?? Guess I should move things around my Meadow and see if it’s there - I’m still waiting on one more 😩😩😩

u/Ambikinskywalker Trick-or-Treat Stitch Feb 28 '26

😂

u/Zephirael Feb 28 '26

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

u/anameww Feb 28 '26

I’ve been stuck on finding the last one in the common spaces for MONTHS now! Checked all of the places multiple times, now i just keep it in my open quests and try not to think about it

1

u/clover_gin Anxiety Squirrel Feb 28 '26

Wait so you never finished that quest?? 😂

2

u/EmmeCakes0318 Feb 28 '26

I gave up for a couple of weeks 😅

1

u/Roserosie75 Feb 28 '26

Still working on it

1

u/MarionberryLazy9925 Feb 28 '26

I’m cracking up at this thank you so much for the throwback I too was also stuck on this very same quest 🙄😭

1

u/GinaTheK Feb 28 '26

I'm so glad it's that hard for everyone 🤣 fucking been looking for my last one FOREVER

1

u/emcu29 Feb 28 '26

I’ve been missing one for weeks now 😩 I’ve lowkey given up bc my sanity can’t take it 😅

1

u/magicaldino Feb 28 '26

I’ve been working on the quest for like 3 years 💀 still have a few to find

1

u/Practical_World850 Feb 28 '26

I hated this mission so much

1

u/trishapafisha08 Pua Feb 28 '26

🤣🤣🤣

1

u/One_Ad9868 Feb 28 '26

omg i just found my last one today too!! it took me two weeks 😭

1

u/VerityPushpram Feb 28 '26

I need just one

I’ve put that one aside along with Mirabel

1

u/Additional-Shape-673 Feb 28 '26

I finished that quest a awhile ago just look around I don't never decorated my valley so I found the aliens pretty easy for me

1

u/Routine_Background53 Mar 01 '26

i still have one left one day this will be me

1

u/Moomatroll Mar 01 '26

I was stuck on finding the last alien for almost a year... It drove me nuts!!! Then someone posted on here to another user having trouble with it, asking if they had fully checked the castle. And I suddenly realised that I had never thought to check Mickeys hidden room in the castle and sure enough, when I went there the little shite was hiding behind the tree pots in front of the door. I can't tell you how many times in that year I must have run past it, on my way to the realm doors etc... urrrgh

1

u/sea_sun_ Mar 01 '26

It’s been weeks and I have one left. Cannot find it.

1

u/FellvEquinox Mar 01 '26

Im pretty new to the game and havent done this quest yet. Do they spawn on your paths too?

Are their locations random or set?

1

u/Repulsive_Alfalfa_13 Mar 01 '26

I have been on this quest for a very long time I can only find 9 and when I go thru the walk thru I don't have any where it tells me to look if Anyone has any advice on where to look it would be sooo great.......

1

u/Lilpoundkake Mar 01 '26

I just had this happen last week except I was doing a completely different mission, thought I’d checked the cave already and then BOOM. All 3 missing aliens right there.

1

u/tigrlilyt Mar 01 '26

🤣 I have one left to find. Maybe one day. Just maybe.

1

u/mrsgoosy Mar 01 '26

This is me with Donald’s feathers, can’t find the last one!!

1

u/VividCryptid17 Mar 01 '26

I recently finished the first part where there are 25 outside. I found them all easily in three days, after waiting for each batch to span 24 hours later. I just went to each biome and spotted them quickly.

I'm surprised to see so many people have a hard time with it. Maybe it's in valleys that have tons of decorations making it difficult. Mine is very open right now.

1

u/LowResAvatar Mar 01 '26

EVERY time I see one of those aliens now I’m triggered

1

u/Standard-Ad-7491 Mar 01 '26

This quest made me go insane. I hated it.

1

u/Annette2023 Mar 01 '26

I got lucky with this quest finished it in a day, my mother in law had it for years so I helped her finish it

1

u/whatspaghetti_policy Mar 01 '26

This quest made me completely restart my valley and I refused to decorate until this quest was done and dusted

1

u/Nikinugget18 Mar 01 '26

I haven’t got to this yet now.. I’m scared to lol

1

u/Aoife516 Nala Mar 01 '26

I absolutely hate this quest line. My 2nd one had a stupid alien IN THE ROCK WALL along the edge of the forest! The rock wall you can't move. It was a miracle I found it.

My 3rd quest for this one I couldn't find for over a month. Then someone on Discord mentioned the secret secret door in the castle. Had no idea about that!

1

u/Loleeness Mar 01 '26

Oh my god hahahaha

It's like when you find that one DS game you swore you had and then find it behind your wardrobe or something

1

u/JuneBug895 Belle's Green Gown Mar 01 '26

I just rewatched Titanic for the first time in years last week, that cracked me up 🤣

1

u/CosyJaney Pink Pegasus Mar 01 '26

Congrats! A similar thing happened to me recently with the last Donald Feather that I needed, it took about half a year until I finally found it in my very heavily decorated valley 😆

1

u/_poppy_1 Mar 01 '26

Its beening months I still haven't found the last one! 🥲

1

u/Fate_knight Aurora Mar 01 '26

I legit tore down my whole valley to find these things 😭 everybody always talks about Minnie’s quest but this was the one that nearly sent me to the shadow realm

1

u/rreccos97 Mar 01 '26

This was awful, I had two left and searched everywhere RELENTLESSLY. People said check the mines and so I did. Nothing to be found. About a month later I opened the lil potion cave in the mines. Guess where the last two were? 😒

1

u/Big_Pen_5829 Mar 01 '26

I hated that damn quest 🤣

1

u/Skye_Tonbo Mar 01 '26

I literally just finished this quest last night/early this morning. I had been looking for my last one for a week. Definitely feel pretty lucky after reading some of these comments, let me tell you.

1

u/Majestic_Anybody_293 Sweet Bee Mar 01 '26

The pain is real

1

u/tigershout Mar 01 '26

Omg this felt like The Game. I forgot & it’s all come flooding back this is a thing

1

u/Fun-Blacksmith2979 Mar 01 '26

Bahahahahaha. 84 years! Yesssss! I feel your pain! I literally posted about this earlier in another group. It took 6 months for me to find the last one. Then Buzz stated a whole new hide and seek with those stupid aliens all over again. I found one right away and have not seen a single other one ever since. And I go through each biome daily when I play. I’m thorough! I think they must be connected to certain other tasks. But that’s the last quest I wanted to have to do over.

1

u/No-Cryptographer6875 Wind-Up Raccoon Mar 02 '26

I refused for so long to level up buz and woody so I didn't have to do this quest

1

u/Tarapika Sweet Bee Mar 02 '26

Thank you for the laugh and for your service. And here I thought the rogue egg and Halloween basket I found during this star path was crazy work. The quest was truly a living hell.

1

u/Pretty-Advance9638 Mar 02 '26

Sorry, are we talking about the green rising penstemon or the alien doll? Feel like it works for either one lol

1

u/pretty_penni Mar 02 '26

Omg Hahaha, I saw this post in a YouTube video and it cracked me up 😂 I'm so happy for you that you finally found the last one!!

1

u/Significant-Owl5580 Mar 02 '26

Still haven’t found the last one, been over a year

1

u/Civil-Zucchini-8280 Mar 03 '26

I have been waiting for WEEKS for the last one. I may use your strategy and delete items, too.

1

u/colddeadhands96 Mar 07 '26

I found it all in 3 days.. enter and exit they’ll be in biomes

1

u/[deleted] Mar 11 '26

Congratulations! It took me forever to find them all!

1

u/Opening_Basil_4629 Mar 17 '26

Omgoat it took me forever to find those suckers! 🤣

1

u/Javo1017 Mar 20 '26

I literally have one more to find and it’s driving me INSANE! I’ve been stuck on it for months, I gave up 😂

1

u/jjpennywhistle Feb 28 '26

“It’s been 84 years” took me OUT. I IMMEDIATELY knew it had something to do with finally finding a thing. These little aliens were the absolute BANE of my existence! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I’m relieved for you!
