I will start with the game looks very great, it nails the animal crossing art style super well. The dialog is also very cute and charming. However personally I just did not really care for the game as a whole, the story really did not make me interested and the game play of the 3 main mini games just where not fun to me. This is a game I may give another chance one day but for now I think its just fine.

A very sweet and cute little adventure game that has a collection of minigames, great characters, and a great 80/90s kid movie story.

The games inside it aren’t the best but they’re decently solid and they’re charming. The main Pokémonish game is pretty easy to win though it occasionally throws some curveballs. There’s a fairly fun retro racing game and a weirdly controlled DDR game. Again, not strong but still fun. There are some other fun things, like chopping lemons and stealth eavesdropping that happen that are refreshing as the game progresses. It’s not rich in dialogue and alternate events via dialogue trees but it’s still fun to have the alts.

It’s driven mostly by its strong writing and cute aesthetic. There are some really cool moments that fall in line with the “save the rec center” narrative and ones that go along with kids doing kid stuff, but also a few great fantasy sequences that add a bit of depth to the game and break the 4th wall in a charming and not too intense way.

The look screams animal crossing, from the character emotes and actions, but I like that it didn’t get concerned with representing that via gameplay.

Unfortunately it is a little bit bogged down by fetch quests and there was at least one big-ish plot thread that doesn’t get resolved really, though it also wasn’t really that apparent in the main meat of the game. It also has some annoying bugs that popped up, though they weren’t so infuriating as to hinder me playing it. These faults weren’t terrible but held it back slightly, and it would have been better would these have been tweaked

I absolutely love the characters and the overall aesthetic of this game. The story was pretty neat as well.

Unfortunately I experienced some pretty serious bugs in the Switch version. The rhythm mini game was so broken, it wasn‘t playable at all.

Still had some fun hours with it!

It's a cute little game that really nails the experience of being a young boy who likes going to the arcade with friends and dealing with the cool dudes who tease them. It even has some classic kid style drama like dressing up in a trench coat in order to trick a rich business man.

juego de aventura Point-and-Click muy adorable, donde puedes retas en juegos arcade a los personajes, un juego ritmo, uno de carreras y el principal un MOBA en tienes que recoger frutas.

La historia se centra en grupo de niños que quieren rescatar el arcade de su ciudad, mientras tratan de ser los mejores en arcade, las historia secundarias también son divertidas, especialmente una donde rompen la cuarta pared y la hacen todo mas terrorífico.

Todo envuelto con un vibra y estética a la Animal Crossing.

It's criminal how little talk there is about this. A wonderfully entertaining and charming story about the new kid in town, the friends he makes and the hijinks they get up to - with some really wholesome and emotional story beats underneath all the fun. Genuinely made me smile.

This game is really charming and wonderful and well written. I hope more people learn about it. Sleeper hit of 2021
