Atsumare Doubutsu no Mori

Atsumare Doubutsu no Mori (Animal Crossing New Horizons) is the latest entry of the Doubutsu no Mori (Animal Crossing) franchise where players can enjoy their "me time" with new and memorable inhabitants just like past installments. In this new game, Tom Nook welcomes you to your own island getaway where you can spend your new life at a deserted island brimming with personality.

Players can make their island theirs by catching bugs and fishes, donate at the museum, plant flowers, add some conveniences to make your island lively for your new friends, explore, and more. During your island getaway, you can expect new and memorable characters to visit your island. Make sure you say hi to them just like what you do in past installments!

Also, you can craft new items to make life on the island easier. First, find some recipes, then explore around the island for materials required, and then visit Tom Nook's workbench to craft new items. If you are getting the hang of this island, you can make your island better by doing some good stuff such as building bridges, contribute resources and bells, and more. Not only your island will be better thanks to new and exciting features to unlock, but it will make the other inhabitants happy as long as they're not leaving.

This game is enjoyable with friends around you, that's why you can have up to eight players (up to four per system or up to eight with ad-hoc or online), to enjoy your island getaway and then share it to the world. You can use amiibo figures and cards to invite your favorite characters in-game.

With so much stuff going on around lately, it's good to know that once you have their newest installment, you can really take a break from all the everyday stress around you and relax in your island getaway with your new friends. This is definitely one of the best games to play this season and you should really thank Nintendo for bringing this hit franchise to the Switch.

Enjoy your island stay!
