Its an RPG watered down to basically being just one of the towns, with the NPCs, and the houses, so... no adventures or monsters or anything like that. Crossed with like, The Sims basically. Yep. You see games with this sort of vibe all the time. It was like the Minecraft of its day, but a lot smaller, and viewed sort of like LEGO people, or chibis. Its non-violent, and exploring the town and figuring out just what to do is the first thing... well... to do.

I change my answer to: same thing as everything else: to be ruined with at least one terrible cereal box-quality sequel/expansion/demake

I just want to add on that it's a surprisingly funny series too, especially in the Gamecube game where certain personality types would just be outright rude to you or steal your shit on a whim.

most of the series: here's a cute village full of quirky animals for you to interact with in a relaxing manner

new horizons: here's a town for you to terraform the shit out of and show off to people on social media

You can make changes to almost everything and you can be nosy like the villagers.

It's a 'pick and up play for a few minutes and progess' game going for it or 'play for hours and still find progression'
It's got a luck based item finding things and a list of things to collect
it's incredibly peaceful and non-stressful. It's one of the few 'you can't die but more or less can constantly progress' games. Even Sims, the popular 'waste time and be destressed' can't hold a candle to it
also it has 3,000 year old cats

I would also describe it as a decorating game. Ive only played new horizons, and Ive heard that the Npc interaction is a lot less than in previous titles.

I see. I remember back in 1st or 2nd grade, I had a teacher who was going on about how her son was addicted to some Animal Crossing game. That's always the first thing that comes to my mind whenever someone brings up Animal Crossing, for some reason.

I played animal crossing on the gamecube. It was great chill game with progression as your own pace. Make money, pay off your house. Decorate your house. Collect fish and bugs for the museum. Make friends with the many npcs with different personalities. There were no other games like it.

That said, i couldnt get into New Horizon. I didnt like the overly restrictiveness on how it only lets you do so few things and you have to wait a real day for it to complete. Feels like mobile crap.

Fuck if I know. Definitely hated it after trying the New Horizons one, I don't see myself trying another game in the series. I do have Ankha on my island though. The island's all female actually except for Big Cock Nook and his bastard twins.
