Animal Crossing: 10 Essential Items For Your Island | Game Rant
There are a ton of very useful items in Animal Crossing: New Horizons. Some of them help with making your furniture mesh a lot better with other items in the game. They also allow you to unleash your creativity in creating all kinds of different areas around your island such as food courts, movie theaters, arcades, and more.
There are endless possibilities and so many great items in the game that allow you to personalize your island. Some items in the game are just great to have on hand to make your daily tasks easier. Here are 10 essential items for your island in Animal Crossing: New Horizons.
10 Golden Tools
Once you achieve a 5-star island through Isabelle's evaluations, you'll receive the golden watering can. Whether this is your first golden tool, or another one for your collection, collecting all the golden tools can be a time-consuming task that'll definitely be rewarding in the end.
The golden tools just look a lot cooler than the normal ones and while they aren't unbreakable (hopefully they will be in the future), they still have fairly high durability.
9 Customization Kits
Customization kits are always great to have in case you ever feel like your tool may be close to breaking. When using a customization kit to change the color of a tool, it'll actually reset the durability on it to make it as good as new. It's a weird trick that would definitely be a lot better if you could just repair the tool without changing its color but hey, it works!
Customization kits can be bought from Nook's Cranny for 600 bells. Thankfully you're able to purchase up to five at a time which makes it way easier to stock up on them.
8 Wands
If you want to be able to change your outfits on the fly, wands are great to have in your inventory at all times. There's a couple of different wands to get but one of the easiest to obtain in the bamboo wand.
Either way, you'll have to get star fragments from wishing on a shooting star at night. When this happens you can also find Celeste on your island who will give you a DIY recipe that can possibly be for a wand or something quite rare. There was also a recipe for a wand given during Bunny Day that is pretty easy to craft.
7 Simple Panels
Simple panels are great because they basically act as walls to cover up spots that you may not want visible, especially when terraforming cliffs. There are tons of custom designs available online that work great with the simple panel. It's available in different colors and purchasable through Nook's Cranny.
Since you'll most likely need a ton of them, ordering them from the Nook catalog allows you to get up to 5 a day. These will ship the day after your order is placed so if you need them urgently, time-traveling will definitely speed up the process.
6 Nook Miles Tickets
Nook Mile Tickets, abbreviated as NMT, are extremely valuable. It's basically the primary currency for the in-game economy as Bells aren't as valuable due to the duplication glitch and most players not needing them anymore. They're used to buy various things in the game and also as a way to hunt for certain villagers using the island tours feature.
They're pretty easy to farm while just doing various tasks in the game. Now is a good time to stock up on them as with future updates there'll be more rare items that you may be able to obtain by trading with someone online. Given that most of these players don't care for bells, having a ton of Nook Mile Tickets on hand is the best way to go.
5 Floor Lights
There are very few items in the game that compare to floor lights when trying to make your island entrance or even a building look cooler. These are available in various different colors and obtained from Nook's Cranny.
They don't really go for a lot online when trading with other colors so if you have a Nook Mile Ticket or two to spare, it may be easier to get it that way than waiting for it to appear in your shop. They look really cool around buildings like the museum and work great for creating island projects such as an arcade or even a music venue.
4 Plain Wooden Shop Sign
The plain wooden shop sign is one of the most desirable items in the game at the moment as it has interesting variations and customization that allow you to put pointers around your island for certain areas such as shops and houses. It's obtained from crafting and can most likely be given to you by a villager as well as from a message in a bottle.
Alternatively, you can get it online by trading with another player. They usually go for a couple of Nook Mile Tickets or if you're lucky, you can maybe trade another player an item that they may be searching for that's in your catalog.
3 Fish Bait
Fish Bait is going to be very important in the summer months as Sharks will finally be catchable and will sell for quite a lot of bells. While gamers definitely feel everyone's pain with how tedious crafting is in the game, it's going to pay off a ton when you can just stay in one area to fish.
You won't have to go all over your island searching for sharks. This could also help a ton with filling up your fish collection for Blathers.
2 Lanterns/Streetlights
Streetlights and Lanterns are a great way to add some nice scenery to your island for your villager's late-night strolls. The street lights are obtainable from the Nook Stop using Nook Miles while the Lanterns are obtainable through crafting.
The Cherry Blossom Viewing Lanterns are some of the best looking ones in the game and were obtainable during the cherry blossom season. You can still get them using time-travel or through online trading. They're really nice and help a ton with getting your island evaluations up as well as making your island look awesome.
1 Stalls
Stalls are one of the best items in the game for creating certain projects on your island. You can create things such as food stalls, fortune-teller stands, ramen stands, and more with them. With all the amazing custom designs available online there are endless possibilities with what you can do.
The stalls are obtained through crafting and are customizable using customization kits. They can also be used like Simple Panels to cover up cliffs or other areas you don't want to be visible
