Alright, so now that most of us have gotten our hands on the latest from the folks over at the Nintendo Entertainment industry, we can finally start talking about the things that they are doing right and the things that they are doing wrong. So let’s just come right out and say it: The things they are doing right are absolute, without any qualification, categorically awesome. And the one thing they are doing right beyond anything else they are doing wrong: The design app, baby!
Within the game, the player will receive a super-powered awesome item known as the Nook Phone, and this bad boy comes with some super powerful applications. We are talking about apps with powers out the wazoo. This bad boy can go into photo editor mode, and let’s just say it is like having a high-powered Photoshop within the game. What can you do with that baby? Well, keep reading to find out how it happens to affect the game.
Ok, ok, this application can be used to edit any of the visual images within the game. You can use it to edit the flag of the island, the wallpapers, the clothes, and even the floors. Oh, you want to be mayor? Well, how about the ability to change the flag of the island just by using a handy app on your phone.
This is the kind of stuff that is completely unprecedented in any kind of Animal Crossing game we have ever seen, and it is exactly what we needed to explore this industry and crack it right open like a rusty nut. Great stuff!
But where the app really comes in is with all of its powerful features. Do you think this thing is like MS Paint? Oh god no, it is the Photoshop of the Animal Crossing universe, and it has been brought straight to your Nook Phone. The islanders have spared no expense for their awesome mayor. So get out there and start leading.
If you happen to be a fan of the kind of games that give you free rein and let you build things however you need them to be, then you should head on out and cop yourself the most amazing Animal Crossing: New Horizons. It is, hands down, the greatest title we have ever seen for one of these games, and it is sure to change your mind about the entire series for the rest of the time. So be sure to go out and give it a try.
