Scene 1: Ckday’s house
 
It starts out almost like in WarioWare games where you see the house, then a turtle flies past. Don’t you wish you could unsee things?

Ckday wakes up, grabs a glass of water (flavored, not regular), and goes back to sleep. Three minutes later, he wakes up again and gets dressed. He then walks to the Lemmy’s Land Thingamajigger where Reviews and Game Guides are held.
 

Scene 2: Backstage
 
Ckday asks his somehow brother Yoshi, “What am I doing today? Game Guide?”

He is answered with “No, a Review.”

“What? NONONONO! I’M DONE REVIEWING! I’VE QUIT! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!”

Then he is shoved onstage.
 

Now, for the Review, darn it!
(Note that all text, unless otherwise stated, is from Ckday.)
 

Ummm… Hi? *gets booed* Well, you’re nice. Anyway, I’ll be doing, umm… *looks at a sheet* Animal Crossing: City Folk. And the first Review of it on LL, too! And as of this Review, I’m replacing the Mario-ness section. The scale is, as per usual, 1-10. Enjoy! *booed*
 

Story: 7
Okay, so, this ugly, creepy, annoying, yet somehow interesting cat named Rover walks onscreen and has a one-sided conversation with you, and then, BAM! He’s torturing you on a bus. STALKER! So he asks you some rather stalker-ish questions. The way you answer changes how your character looks, so pick wisely! So you FINALLY ditch him and set off to live life without getting out of youra chair! So, after abuse by a half-dressed raccoon, you can just live your life freely by not living life!
 

Gameplay: 10
You can do endless things! Catch fish, hunt bugs, decorate your house, use feng shui (which is arranging your house for benefits), shop, sell, mercilessly beat people, etc! And I’m just getting started! You can also visit the city, a piece of gameplay untouched by the last two games. See Replayabillity.
 

Levels: n/a
Umm… You have your town, friends’ towns, and the city (see Gameplay and Replayabillity). Yeah.
 

Secrets & Unlockables: 7
This game has numerous secrets! As I’ll tell you in this replacement section, you can find various tricks and treats and other schemes to help improve your house, town, or funds to help rake in random beaten things, random beaten other things, and random beaten people! You can Mario-ize your house with Mario furniture, rake in T-Rex Skulls on your front lawn, and other cool things! The shopkeeper, Tom Nook, the half-dressed raccoon of the business world, might even make some much-needed improvements to his store if you buy like a maniac…
 

Controls: 9
You will LOVE the Nunchuk in this game, it makes this SO much easier! A and C are for selecting options and performing actions, B and Z are to run, pick things up, pluck weeds, and go back, the Control Stick is for moving, 1 is to take a picture, and the motion sensor is used for moving and selecting inventory options. However, I docked- *gets a dock thrown at him* …Ow. Anyway, I docked a point for control without the Nunchuk.
 

Graphics: 9
The graphics are just fine! The Mario items are realistic (in terms of NES graphics) and the characters look at least somewhat believable. But, your character’s nose doesn’t stick out, which is rather awkward, so I removed a point. Oh well.
 

Music and Sound: 10
These songs are amazing! Three songs were so great they actually got put on the Animal Crossing Clock pre-set alarm sounds. You can also make your Town Tune, which is basically your Town’s national anthem and plays every hour and each time you talk to someone, so make one you like!
 

Characters: 10
There are so many characters you’ll probably never meet them all. You have billions of animal neighbors that will move in and out of your town, depending on how you treat them. Send ‘em lots of letters with presents and talk to them frequently, and they’ll stay and you get tons of presents! Everyone’s happy! But there are also multitudes of special characters to meet, like Mr. Resetti (a mole who yells at you for resetting), Don (Resetti’s older brother), Serena (the goddess of the fountain you can get in your town), and Wendell (a traveling artist who gives you designs for food), among others.
 

Difficulty: n/a
This game’s just a life simulation. How can it be hard?
 

Replayabillity: ENDLESS! I mean, 11
Yeah. It scored over 10. This is the second game (first was Mario Party DS) I’ve given a score over 10. Anyway, how can this game not end? It’s life. In reality, do you collect a bunch of stuff, get a message saying you beat life 100%, and never come back? No. But, as mentioned above, there is a piece of gameplay called The City. The City is really just a compilation of stores for furniture and other things. Really neat.
 

Fun Factor!: 8
Personally, I think this game is extremely fun, but one of my friends doesn’t think so. It’s really just on what you classify fun.
 

Overall: 9
I’ve played the other 2 Animal Crossing and thought they were pretty amazing, and when I heard about this game, my expectations skyrocketed. And you know what? My expectations were mostly met. If they had more unlockables than just upgrading Tom Nook’s store, this would’ve been a perfect 10. But it’s still an amazing game, so pick it up!
