 Great for Ages 5-?? May 22, 2007
Not something I play but the kids are addicted! Fun game for little ones, very age appropriate for even the youngest gamer.
A great game for children! May 20, 2007
My children have enjoyed this games tremendously. Their ages are 9-12.
 A different kind of RPG May 7, 2007
Animal Crossing is a different kind of RPG. It does not involve any fighting or combat. Instead, it is a game of cooperation and community. Up to four players can have a file on the game. These players work together to build homes, go to jobs, and intereact with other villagers. The four players can share items and send mail to each other. It helps children learn about working for what they want, including houses and furniture and clothes for their virtual character. One aspect of the game is that it is a real-time experience. It is set up with weekend activities, end-of-the-month sales, holiday events, and more. I have four girls aging 8 to 16, and they all have fun taking turns in their village. The only disadvantage is that only one person can play at a time, but this helps them learn to be patient!!
This is a great little game April 4, 2007

This is a great game. Yes, its different from many games. It isn't all shooting and non-stop action nor does it require lightning speed coordination on the controller. Instead, it is an addicting game of moving out on your own, getting your own house, fixing it up, helping neighbors and discovering the next cute little secret the game has to offer. There is always something. You can visit other people's towns, which is a unique feature, and play and see what they have created there. It is for kids but adults will love it (and probably appreciate more of the cute little details).
Animal Crossing: The Game That Runs On A Real Time Basis March 5, 2007
5 out of 5 found this review helpful
Animal Crossing is a very good game. If you like virtual reality games, this game is for you. In this game, you are able to get a house. At first, your house starts off very small, but as you continue to pay off your morgage through the local post office, your house will grow to be three floors, and that is not it, if you outsize your house, you will get a giant trophy outside of the train station. When all of the other animals see this prize, they will be very proud of you. They will comment about what you did.
In the very beginning of your game, you will meet a cat named Rover. He will be VERY annoying, by asking you a lot of questions. His first question will be "What time is it?" You could enter any possible time. You choose whether it is... January... February... March... etc., the day of the month... March 5... March 6... March 7... etc. or the specific year in which you will be playing in. Rover will then ask for your name, and the your destination in which you will be traveling to. Rover then asks if you know where you will be living. Then Rover calls his "buddy" Tom Nook, who is the manager of the store in your town. When you arrive at your town, Tom Nook will come up to you and then show you around your acre. You can then choose your house, which is as I said earlier "EXTREMELY SMALL." You start out the game with only 1,000 bells, which happens to be the currency in the game. When Nook gets his 1,000 bells he says "That is... not narly enough." Nook offers you a part-time job at Nook's Cranny or whatever your store is called. You work for a while, then comes my favorite part of the game, meeting the townsfolk! You will meet a variety of animals such as dogs, cows, sheep, pigs, frogs, toads, cats, lambs, bears, ducks, birds, and even turtles. You then work some more, then your job is done! You pay off more debts, then you are FREE TO DO WHATEVER YOU WANT!!!
There are many holidays in your Animal Crossing Village. The mayor will give you gifts just for attending the event. Some events in town are Toy Day, Harvest Festival, Halloween (Which is creepy), and even a sports fair.
This game runs on a real time basis, if you do not play the game every day, you will get little bugs in your house, and then weeds will grow everywhere in your town. Your friends in your town will get very worried about where you were, they may even get very mad at you just for not seeing you around. They may even move out completely.
There are several tricks in this game: One CHEAT is for an instant 30,000 bells the code you enter at Nook's Shop Is
WB2&pARAcnOwnUjMCK%hTk8JHyrT. Another trick to the game is to bury a shovel into the ground where it is very shiny, this will grow a tree that produces golden shovels, and it will also produce a golden tree. You can also have two towns on different memory cards. This will give you the ability to travel to your friends town. However, this trick will only work if you have 2 memory cards. There is one more trick to the game that I would like to mention. This trick will only work if you have a gameboy advance and also a game gameboy advance connector cable. If you have all this, you can travel to a foreign island. This island will be owned by YOU. You can design the island's flag. You can also build a hut.
There is one bad thing about this game though, it can get a little repetitive sometimes. Other than that, this is an awsome game that you should buy!
