NookLink will allow you to chat with other players through text or voice chat, and access hand-made patterns that you may have created or added to Animal Crossing: New Leaf and Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer on Nintendo 3DS. It's not really the sort of game you can fudge your way through without reading either, as villagers often ask you to get them specific items or take a parcel to another inhabitant.After Animal Crossing: New Horizons launches on Nintendo Switch on March 20, the Nintendo Switch Online mobile application will be updated with NookLink, a new area made especially for New Horizons players. Like the other Animal Crossing games, New Leaf is very text heavy with everything from conversations with villagers to writing letters to descriptions of the fish and insects you've caught - making a decent reading ability a must. With a hugely entertaining cast of villagers to keep you laughing - from the slow but sporty Sly, who sports a fetching rainbow shirt, to the super-friendly kleptomaniac zebra Savannah, and the cranky rabbit-in-a-sun-hat O'Hare, each game has a different collection of villagers in their town for your child to make friends with, and run errands for. With home upgrades coming at an extra price, and a seemingly never ending mortgage to pay off to the infamous Tom Nook, Animal Crossing is a never ending cycle of making some money, chatting to some villagers, and running errands to make ends meet - only with no time-limit or pressure to pay things off.
Stroll along the beach and pick up some shells, sell the fish you catch or cash-in the fruit off the town's trees - if you want that fire hydrant, marshmallow chair or top hat you'll need the coins for it. Being the mayor also gives you the power to start new design projects around the town, too, adding fountains, topiaries and bus stops to your village, or changing how the outside of your house or town's big buildings look.īut you can't buy the things you really want in the game without any money, and a constant cycle of finding and flogging stuff will provide you with all the disposable cash you need.
Another huge part of the game comes from interior design - as you save up your money in the game, you'll go from a poky little room to a sprawling three-floor mansion (at a cost of course), which you can fill with all kinds of furniture - from bog-standard tables, chairs and beds to the more exotic anatomical models, a baby panda or cement mixers, and a whole host of rare Nintendo-themed items too. With a whole museum to fill, with exhibits dedicated to the fish, insects, fossils and paintings you can find during your day, there's tonnes of stuff to collect and find. If your child's the sort of person who likes collecting things, exploring, and taking things at their own pace, then Animal Crossing is the game for them.
Seeing as different shops and buildings open at different time of day, it's not the best of games to be playing first thing in the morning, or late at night - with most of the town working on a 9-5, or for certain places, on a 10am - 11pm basis, being around when things are open is an important part of the game. One of the things parents should be aware of is that the game works on a real-time clock - 11am in real life will be 11am in the game, the middle of the night is the middle of the night and so on, and the events in the game unfold at a fairly slow pace, requiring you to check in on a pretty much daily basis for a little chunk at a time.
