Jul 21, 2010 - Animal Crossing City Folk Rom. After a few days on animal crossing, time traveling of course, I have 200,000 bells. The heart of Animal Crossing: City Folk is building relationships with the animals in your town as well as with other players. Befriend your animal neighbors by exchanging letters, gifts and favors.
Sheras rates this game: 5/5 Fantastic game. Great for relaxing gameplay and just for enjoying yourself rather than always the fast paced shooters or RPGs that are everywhere nowadays. In Animal Crossing you move to a sparsely populated town that is equipped with a post office, a small store, a dump, a fountain, a museum and a police station. You buy a small house from the store owner but lack the funds to pay him so you go to work for him to pay it off.
After a few jobs he lets you go and says to pay off your bill as you can. Once you pay off the bill he will expand your house for you and you get another bill (this continues 3-4 times) You can decorate your house with furniture, wallpaper and carpet/flooring. You can go fishing, catch insects or dig up fossils to sell (or donate to the museum). Run errands for the townsfolk and they will reward you.

Keep your town clean and more people will move into your town. You can also visit other towns, if you have other save data on another memory card. Animal Crossing also operates in real time, well based on the time you have set on your game, and counts up minute by minute.
I often manipulate this feature, because I'm sorry I am not quite patient enough to wait for months on end for the seasons to change, especially since certain fish/insects and such can only be found in certain seasons. Some tips: Check the dump and police station often. You can find some furniture and such strewn about in them to help you decorate or to pay off your bills. Planting flowers increases your towns attractiveness and attracts more people to town. If you have other save data, make sure the town has a different fruit on the trees from you.
Any other fruit that doesn't grow to start in your town is worth more money. Also, plant some fruit from that town in your own, so you don't always have to travel there.
B1ueskycomp1ex rates this game: 3/5 Animal crossing is a sort of strange tamogachi-esque game where you interact with other anthromorphic animals in a fantasy setting where you go about your everyday life, play mini games, and generally just relax. It's a great life sim for people that enjoy that sort of thing, and it's fun making money and managing your character's relationships with other characters in the game.

The game operates on the Gamecube's real time clock, and events happen when you're away from it in a similar fashion to Seaman on the Dreamcast or some of the newer Pokemon games. It's an interesting game for people that enjoy games like harvest moon or other life sims, but doesn't offer much for gamers looking for story or action-driven gameplay.
