95. Animal Crossing (AxemRedRanger)
3Gs2DT0

I actually put a lot of time into this game. I might cross my wires here and talk about stuff that's actually in Wild World because it's been so long since the last time I played either game, and all Animal Crossings are basically the same anyway, so who cares. That's why I haven't played one since Wild World because I got everything I wanted from AC after those two games. I'm not even sure why I got Animal Crossing in the first place. It's not the type of game I normally play, but I guess I was intrigued by the concept because it was pretty neat. I feel like just describing the game doesn't do it justice because you spend a lot of time doing seemingly mundane tasks trying to pay off your house so you can get out from under the thumb of the tyrannical Tom Nook. There's just something fun about interacting with all your neighbors and developing relationships of sorts, including rescuing them from pitfalls that you planted. There's a sense of satisfaction slowly watching your debt dwindle, too, until it's all gone. It's almost like preparing you for adulthood!

Animal Crossing gives you plenty to do and lots of loot to collect, so you can sink a bunch of time into it. It was even the original Virtual Console since you could collect old NES games to play! I always made sure to be there for the K.K. Slider performances whenever I could because I love the fact that they have someone singing songs with that weird sound effect they use to simulate speech. The fact that the game has seasons and special events based on a real calendar is cool, so it gives you stuff to look forward to and a reason to keep playing from time to time. Yet for me, once I had everything paid off and had enough stuff to fill up my house, I was satisfied. I didn't play as much of Wild World because I realized just one time was enough for me, but I still enjoyed the experience.

Bonus Question: What is your favorite aspect of Animal Crossing?
