Well, for those of you who are new to Animal Crossing New Horizons and confused about what to do at the beginning of the game, the KotGa crew has some tips. Here are some important tips so you don't make a mistake. Let's see the article!
1. Make Good Use of Nook Miles
Nook Miles is one of the "currency" in Animal Crossing New Horizons. Unlike the Bells which can still be found by selling something or looking for it in various resources, but not with Nook Miles. You have to complete certain missions to get it. Therefore, Nook Miles must be used properly. Some things that really need to be purchased with Nook Miles are increased inventory capacity, tool rings, or airline tickets.
2. Visit Nook Stop every day (ATM)
If you really need Nook Miles, make sure you visit the Nook Stop every day. Through a place like an ATM, you can get bonus Nook Miles every day. This number will continue to increase over the next week. So, make sure you always visit it every day without interruption.
3. Hit trees and rocks every day
Resources in this game do not respawn every few hours because it uses a real-time system like the real world. So, the resource will grow back the next day. For resources such as wood and twigs, it may be easy for you to get because there are quite a lot of them. However, for clay or iron nuggets it seems like it will be quite difficult for you to get because the number of stones is quite small. So, make sure to always take these resources every day.
4. Don't forget to always chat with your neighbors
Yes, when you are just starting to play. There will be two neighbors on your island. This number will continue to grow as the island develops. The neighbor several times gave important items such as wood or iron. Therefore, make sure you always chat every day so that the relationship with them is always good and reciprocal.
5. Check the beach, pick up the bottle with the recipe in it
DIY recipes are very important here. Through this, you can make various types of equipment to sustain your life or beautify the island. Therefore, make sure you search every beach every day because sometimes there are "stray" bottles with DIY recipes in them. The DIY recipe is different every day depending on what you don't have.
6. Sell fossils that you already have
Yes, when you are just starting to play. There will be two neighbors on your island. This number will continue to grow as the island develops. The neighbor several times gave important items such as wood or iron. Therefore, make sure you always chat every day so that the relationship with them is always good and reciprocal.
7. Diligently fly to an uninhabited island
If you are smooth to get Nook Miles every day. Don't forget to visit the uninhabited island every day. By using plane tickets that can be purchased with Nook Miles, you can get various interesting things on an uninhabited island. One of them is getting resources such as iron which are highly sought after. In addition, you can also take trees or plants to replant on your island.
8. Wrong house? Don't worry, you can move!
Yep, you are not alone Boxers. Quite a number of players misplace their houses early in the game. But don't worry, because you can move house later when the Resident Service has been upgraded. You only need to talk to Tom Nook about moving your house, then after that you are told to pay a moving fee of around 50,000 Bells.
9. Don't worry about unlocked features, progress is the key!
Don't ever get confused when you don't have DIY recipes or other features like Shop or Museum for example. You can get everything as you progress every day on the island. Because basically, Animal Crossing New Horizons uses every real-time time like the real world. So, you need patience to unlock various features.
10. Think back when you want to time travel
Animal Crossing New Horizons' real-time time system adapts to the clock on your Nintendo Switch system. Therefore, you can outsmart it by changing the time on Nintendo Switch. However, there are various consequences that you will get when you often move time. Like the loss of Bonus Nook Miles or not being able to take part in certain events if you forget to set it to the original time. So, think again if you want time travel!
