How to expand your island in Animal Crossing: New Horizons
Expanding your island in Animal Crossing: New Horizons basically means making more room or changing the layout to add new stuff! The key? Terraforming! Once you unlock the Island Designer app on your NookPhone, you can start shaping your island's rivers, cliffs, and paths however you like. Want more land? Fill in those water bodies. Craving some elevation? Stack up those cliffs. Just remember, it's all about letting that creative flag fly and playing around with the tools until you've got your dream island!

Quick tip: you can't actually 'expand' the island's borders, but you can maximize space by rearranging stuff. Get rid of stuff you don't need, move buildings around, and plan your layout wisely. It's like playing real-life Tetris with your island.
Honestly, just terraform everything. Who needs rivers when you can have more land for activities?
