Animal Crossing vs Virtual Families
Animal Crossing
Animal Crossing is the critically-acclaimed first game in the popular simulation series where you play as the new mayor of a quaint little town filled with adorable animal characters, such as K.K. Slider and Tom Nook, each with their own unique personalities and quirks.Animal Crossing has caught the attention of the gaming community mainly because it is possibly the first game to have integrated the passing of time based on the time in real life. This means if you log in after a few days, you'll notice some changes these few days have wrought. The decor in town will automatically change as well during special holidays.
Sounds like a game you'll enjoy? Well, the original Animal Crossing game is no longer available since Nintendo has discontinued its Gameboy Cube platform, but you can still experience the series by playing any one of their other Animal Crossing games.
Virtual Families
Virtual Families is a fun family simulation game where you'll be in charge of taking care of a virtual family. Somewhat similar to The Sims albeit in a much smaller scale, you'll get to adopt a virtual person of your choice and encourage him or her to do what young adult humans do - find a stable career, meet a suitable partner and settle down to start a family. Instead of ordering your sim around though, you'll encourage certain behavior by praising and discourage others by scolding. In some way, you can say that you can actually shape the personality of your little virtual person.Aside from the sim, you'll also get to improve the newly-wed's home. There are even multiple hidden puzzles all over the place for you to find and solve. Sometimes, when you least expect it, an event will pop up threatening to turn the amazing virtual life you've built for your sim completely upside down! All of these provide some respite from the usual daily routine of your sims as they go about their day.
Virtual Families is an incredibly fun game especially for fans of life simulation games like The Sims. If you got the chance, you should really check this game out! The demo is free to play, but for the full experience, you'll need to buy the game.
