The town also cycles through the year, and you get to celebrate holidays in your town, including Halloween, Christmas, and countless other days like Mayor's day etc
National holidays are celebrated in the town just like in real life.
You get to buy items, furnish your house, interact with animals, mail a letter, go fishing, catch insects, celebrate holidays as on a regular year, donate to a museum, and my favorite: GET MONEY!!
You can also celebrate holidays in the game like you could in real life at the same time such as Halloween, Christmas, fireworks, and a lot more
There are many interesting holidays in the game, but the holidays become repetitive---the holidays are mainly animals standing around talking about the holiday.
There is an igloo where you can play different games to win stuff
If you want to reset your game when a lamb takes your money, you can't or else this stupid resetii guy will come and tell you your dumb and that you smell and how its your fault and all this stupid stuff
You can play this game any way you want, whether you want to visit friends' towns, find the coolest stuff for your house, go fishing, come up with a cool Town Tune -- the possibilities are endless
In summer you can go to a tent where you can play games and win stuff
" And you can play for years and see all the cool new stuff each day.6
The goal (from what I understand) is creating "the perfect town"
If you like games where you have a nice interaction with characters, and where you can improve not just your house, but the town as well, with different events each month to a whole year, this is the game for you, its literally another life in a game.
And if you neglect your town long enough, it will become overrun by weeds because, apparently, you're the only citizen who cares enough to keep it cleaned up
Then you get of the train and see what you look like and your town
You name your town and yourself whatever you like and no 2 towns are the same
Some words are expressed by clearly angry or gloomy animal characters.
The spin-off would be called The Incredible Hulk Ultimate Destruction of Animal Crossing, in which the Hulk has to go around and smash the animals of Animal Crossing and their surroundings.
I thought it would be a Sims like game with fuzzy little animals and it would be cheesy
The basic premise is you are a human, and you move into a town that consists entirely of human like animals
But, the fact is, everything is so endearing that it's hard to heavily nitpick Animal Crossing
The game is rather quaint--you move to town, you get a really shoddy little house, and you start to make your way up in the community.
This game is great, not only do you do jobs and hunt, but you can also buy things to make your house better, beds, chairs, radios, stereos, statues, tables pretty much anything, plus you can buy mini NES games and play them, like Tennis and PunchOut
You also need to pay for your new, bigger house (a lot more expensive
If you like games where you have a nice interaction with characters, and where you can improve not just your house, but the town as well, with different events each month to a whole year, this is the game for you, its literally another life in a game.
Once you play Animal Crossing, you start to know what it's like to live in a world where you have to get a job, buy a house, pay off loans and debts, furnish and clean your house, etc
Which basically means you have to have a lot of free time to play this game
This is just as bad as "The Sims Online" (another boring, pointless real-time game).
The time changes like in the real world (not like the sims)!
I 'moved' into his neighborhood and what a great time I had!
If you keep interacting with the townsfolk all day and all night, they will not get their much needed sleep and will tend to be very curt with you the next time you turn on your Game Cube
All the townsfolk are animals, and the player is a strange looking boy or girl
If you absolutely hate the look, save and quit and come back to get rid of it.
so I could have a nice looking case with a memory card
It's probably the best example on a game system of the less is more approach, using rather primitive looking graphics but that only is a forum for the gameplay to shine through
You can fish, collect fossils, decorate your house, build onto your house, design clothes,talk to the other inhabitants of the town, run errands, visit other villages, plant trees, pull weeds, catch bugs, shake trees for money, and play classic Ninendo games like Donkey Kong
You get to buy items, furnish your house, interact with animals, mail a letter, go fishing, catch insects, celebrate holidays as on a regular year, donate to a museum, and my favorite: GET MONEY!!
You can fish, catch bugs, and donate fossils to the museum after you have sent them to Faraway to be analyzed
My daughter's reading actually improved as she read along with the banter of the animals.
anyway, you can also fish, catch bugs, plant flowers/Trees, and loads
Personally, I enjoy little antics and innovations like this, but in Animal Crossing, you can even swipe the E-Reader classic games and be able to play them on your Nintendo (if you buy one from Tom Nook)
Between the two of us, this game was running from around 7:00 a.m. (very good fishing time in the town my character lives in, not to mention the grandson was still sleeping) until approximately 11:30 p.m. (good time to pull weeds, shake trees for spending currency and get a little more fishing in!).I was pretty surprised by how much I enjoyed just puttering my little character around in this imaginary world that I actually just ordered MY OWN COPY of the game to KEEP at my house

He also loved chopping down trees, which I highly discourage, unless the fountain tells you to cut a few down.
Very young children (like my 4 year-old) can enjoy running around, shaking the trees for fruit and catching bugs, but fluency in English will enhance your experience immensely
He gives you lots of odd jobs to do, such as posting adds for his store and running packages to and fro
Each day has you paying off loans entering Fishing contest, doing odd jobs, playing NES games like Pinball and Donkey Kong, and it gose on and on
Talking to the people in town is different and the jobs can be worth while at first but once again, after a couple of weeks ... it's repetitive and gets extremely boring
The "odd jobs" they give you, is better for getting furniture, clothing, and stationary.

It is very easy to sink hours of gameplay into this seemingly childish and simple game
We have lost hours of our lives playing this game, and I'm sure we will lose a lot more
The first half-hour is pretty tedious because you have to name alot of stuff
Great game for any age if you have a young child or a teenager they are sure to engoy this game i really sugest this game for any age group and it comes with a free memory card that has 2 great gifts a NINTENDO thats right u can even play old nintendo games in this
Warning, if you don't want to spend mindless hours in front of your TV set do NOT buy this game!
