this was my first animal crossing game so it'll always be special to me for that. when it first came out I did everything, then they started adding updates and I struggled to stay ahead, eventually giving up. but it introduced me to so many characters and mechanics of the series. it's kind of a precursor to new horizons in regards to its crafting (and, y'know, release date). I'm glad nintendo did a new horizons crossover where you could get themed items from this, so the spirit of this game could live on in a better one lol.
