Get Used to the Nook Phone & Check Nook Miles Challenges
That capitalism-loving raccoon never stops, as he’s given you a Nook Phone to help you on your adventure. While it offers a ton of features such as the game’s Photo Mode, the map, and the ability to call up the rescue service, it also has the Nook Miles feature.
Opening up this option on your phone will allow you to check out the various challenges you can complete to earn Nook Miles. These can be spent on a ton of different rewards, such as visiting other nearby randomly-generated islands, getting new hairstyles or items, and more.
It’s good to get accustomed to the Nook Miles system sooner rather than later, as it’ll give you a ton more things you can unlock as you rack up more miles. Additionally, it ensures you’ve always got something to do in the game. If you’ve got one more challenge to catch five fish, you know you’re probably gonna go fishing.
