Animal Crossing New Horizons Island Tips & Tricks You Should Know

In this guide, we list 3 useful island tips & tricks for helping you design & build your island in ACNH. 

1. Dig Holes Before You Mine

When you're mining in Animal Crossing New Horizons, there's a chance you'll bounce back after hitting a rock and won't be able to get any more resources after that to prevent this dig two holes behind you, so you don't stagger back as far letting you get 9 consecutive hits at the rock, that means a higher chance of iron nuggets which is always handy in Animal Crossing. 

2. Check Critterpedia Before You Donating Items

By now, you've probably donated a heap of bugs, fish and fossils to the lovely brothers in his Museum, keeping track of all those generous donations is tricky but helpfully. Kritterpedia does the work for you hover over items in your critterpedia and if they have an owl icon next to them it means you've already donated them to the owl meaning you can keep or sell any more you find for ACNH Bells. Don't forget to go visit your specimens in the museum either as it's a simply beautiful place to pass a couple of idle minutes and seeing your donations frolic well not so much the skeletons and fossils in leaves or water is simply delightful.

3. You Can Stack Boxes

Some of you might want to keep all your treasured finds on display, so you or your friends can gaze at them in admiration but you don't have to worry about running out of floor space. For a while both fish and insect boxes stack with larger boxes going at the bottom all the way up to small ones at the top, you can also stack medium-sized boxes on top of each other. So now you can play a much safer version of Jenga with all of your wildlife finds outside of your house. You can place custom-designed tiles on the floor. Don't worry if you end up putting the tile in the wrong place instead of faffing around with the design interface, just press Y to kick dirt over them and get rid of the misplaced tiles.
