Unlocking Vanellope von Schweetz in Disney Dreamlight Valley brings a energetic series of activities for players to enjoy. Once you raise her friendship level to level four, she initiates the quest titled Ready Player Fun to shake off her boredom in the Valley. Finding her during the hide-and-seek portion of this quest is one of the key milestones to moving forward.
Starting the Ready Player Fun Quest
Before you can seek out Vanellope, you must first complete a set of initial Valley activities while hanging out with her. These introductory objectives include planting crops, harvesting fruit, catching fish, and mining gems around the village. After finishing these tasks, speak to Vanellope again to trigger her game of hide-and-seek.
To give her time to hide, head directly into Scrooge McDuck's store as instructed. Step back outside immediately after entering to begin your search across the biome. You can ask nearby villagers like Nala, Mickey Mouse, or Mirabel for hints, but heading straight to her location saves time.
Locating Vanellope Hiding Spot in Vitalys Mines
Vanellope chooses a dark and mysterious location inside the Vitalys Mines located within the Sunlit Plateau. Enter the mines and immediately bear left to locate a trail of colorful candy scattered across the ground. Following this candy trail will guide you deeper into the mining tunnels toward her position.
Continue through the mine paths until you encounter an area where the cart tracks intersect. Turn toward the path covered in environmental obstacles such as Night Thorns and large rocks. Clear these obstructions to find Vanellope tucked safely behind a row of mine carts.
Completing the Race and Extreme Fishing Tasks
Upon discovering her hiding spot, speak with Vanellope to initiate a friendly sprint back toward the mine entrance. It does not matter whether you beat her to the exit or finish behind her, as the narrative continues regardless of the outcome. Once outside, converse with her to unlock the final segment of the questline.
The concluding challenge requires you to participate in an extreme fishing activity by catching three fish. To complete this swiftly, cast your line into the nearby river water running right outside the Vitalys Mines entrance. Return to Vanellope after catching three fish to successfully wrap up the quest and claim your rewards.
