Menu Map NH Icon.png

The map is a key item in the Animal Crossing series that gives a top-down overview of the player's town. In Animal Crossing, the player will get it while working part-time for Tom Nook, and will be allowed to keep it through the whole game. In Animal Crossing: Wild World, Pelly will show the player how to use it in the town hall. Rover gives it to the player in Animal Crossing: City Folk on the bus ride. The player receives one from Porter after leaving the train in Animal Crossing: New Leaf. In Animal Crossing: New Horizons, the map is now an app on the player's NookPhone.

The map shows the player where buildings are, along with the town's geographic features. Geographical features shown include sea, rivers, ponds, bridges, grassy areas, and dirt/sandy areas. Maps do not show the location of trees, rocks, flowers, rafflesias, dropped items, cracks in the ground (where fossils, etc. are buried) signs, other animal villagers, bugs, or fish. There will be an actual list of each building on the side of the map.
