Wrapping gifts in Animal Crossing: New Horizons not only adds a delightful touch to your interactions with friends, but also enhances the overall gifting experience. Investing time and Bells into beautifully wrapped presents demonstrates your thoughtfulness, making every gift memorable. Players can easily share gifts through the mail or during multiplayer sessions, creating opportunities for surprise and delight. While the act of wrapping doesn’t alter gameplay mechanics, it enriches roleplay and brings an element of surprise to various minigames and gifting occasions.
For a more engaging gameplay experience, consider hosting friends for Animal Crossing minigames, offering wrapped presents as prizes. This approach injects intrigue and excitement into the games. Alternatively, during the festive season, you might create your own mailed advent calendar by sending wrapped gifts to friends daily throughout December. For users of Nookazon, wrapped gifts often serve as mystery bags, allowing buyers to explore surprises hidden within until they unwrap them.
Where to Purchase Gift Wrap & Operation Guide
How to Wrap Your Presents
Purchasing wrapping paper in Animal Crossing: New Horizons is straightforward. Simply visit Nook’s Cranny and check the display cabinet on the right side of the shop. Browse Timmy and Tommy’s selection until you find the bundles of wrapping paper, priced at 160 Bells each. These bundles wrap one gift, but you can bulk purchase five to save time. The color options vary daily, so if your preferred shade isn’t available, come back later!
After acquiring your wrapping paper, ensure the item you intend to gift is in your inventory. Highlight the wrapping paper, choose “wrap,”and then select the gift. Once the present is wrapped, it can be given to friends or mailed to villagers. Remember not to unwrap it afterwards, as you will have to buy more wrapping paper to do so again!
