Whether you're a new player just arriving on the island or an old player returning after a break, these tips will help you quickly integrate into the new Animal Crossing life. Beginner's Guide Prioritize Nook Miles Redemption: In the early stages, focus on completing tasks to earn Nook Miles and prioritize redeeming "Pocket Organization Guide" (to expand your inventory) and "Tool Ring" (to unlock more durable tools). Choose Building Locations Carefully: It's best to keep the Resident Services, Museum, and Nook's Cranny locations concentrated in the early stages for daily convenience. Moving buildings costs a lot of Bells! Don't Eat Fruit Before Hitting Rocks: Hitting rocks after eating fruit will smash them, wasting valuable iron nuggets that are scarce in the early game. Never eat fruit before mining! Catch-Up List for Returning Players Head Straight to The Roost Café: First, visit Blathers at the museum to start the quest to find Brewster, unlocking this classic social spot that returned in version 2.0. Take Kapp'n's Boat Tours: Go to the pier to find Kapp'n, who will take you to mysterious islands with special plants or different seasons. Explore Harv's Island: Harv's Island has been transformed into a large plaza after the update, where you can sponsor and unlock various NPC shops, such as Leif's Garden Shop and Kicks' shoe shop.
