  • Animal Crossing is an incredibly polished chill sandbox/simulation game. It's low stress and non-competitive. The kind of thing you can put 100+ hours into if you like that kind of thing

  • I wouldn't recommend it. Animal Crossing is even worse than Stardew Valley and Harvest Moon for short bursts. It uses a real time system, so if you can only play at certain times, then stuff will just be straight up inaccessible. Also yo...
  • I have been experiencing joycon drift in Animal Crossing: New Horions only, but every time I play. I have tried playing with joycons and a wireless and single-piece controller ant it keeps happening.

Some of my other favorite takes are animal crossing new horizons, spiritfarer, unpacking, tiny bookshop, do not feed the monkeys, and a night in the woods.

This is a game where you can’t lose or get a game over or anything like that. It’s a social sim, sandbox game. Very chilled out.
