Life on the island can be quite a challenge in Animal Crossing: New Horizons, specifically when the wasps are hunting you, you're desperately looking for some materials, or your Nook Miles is running low. Worry no more because there's a handful of tips to make your journey in this Nintendo game easier.

In New Horizons, unusual currency, Nook Miles that can be traded for all kinds of goods is introduced. Since you rack "miles up at a fast pace," you tend to have an ardent desire of buying random items on impulse.

However, you are advised to have your Nook Miles saved until the transformation of the Resident services "from a tent into a building."

Once the said shift takes place, the number of goods that can be bought with the currency exponentially increases. The only things though, that you should feel worried about prior to the occurrence of the shift, are the extended inventory, plane tickets, hairstyles, tool ring, and "paying Tom Nook" for the tent.

More Tips

Now you know that you need to save Nook Miles, consider changing your looks, too. If you have bustled through the creation of character and made a series of dreadful superficial decisions stay calm. The moment you enter the game simply makes a mirror through the use of an iron nugget and three pieces of wood.
