The islands inHello Kitty Island Adventureare breathtaking, but you won’t have to take in the sights by memory alone. Early on in the game, you’ll be able to get your hands on the camera, which is initially used to take pictures of Gudetama around the map.

Pochacco isfound to the right of the Resort Plaza,so you won’t need to travel too far in order to find him. To initially increase your friendship with him, justgift him a few pieces of tofu.This is a one-heart gift for Pochacco that you canobtain by gifting things to Hello Kitty.
This is a very simple quest thattasks you with taking a picture of a Gudetama figure.You won’t have to venture too far in order to find a Gudetama figure; once you find one, you’ll unlock the camera. After this point, the camera can be used freely.
