After arriving and being appointed mayor, your first major task is to establish your authority and gain the trust of your townsfolk. To earn your 100% approval rating, you must complete specific foundational tasks: introduce yourself to every villager, plant your town tree at the Plaza, and run errands for Isabelle such as fetching a seashell or watering flowers. You should also visit Tom Nook to secure your first house and purchase primary tools like the shovel or fishing rod to begin shaping your environment.
