Animal Crossing: Wild World 2005

Is it still worth playing?

You live in a remote village populated with anthropomorphic animals and are encouraged to carry out tasks such as collecting and planting. It is a 2005 social simulation for the Nintendo DS, released in Japan in November 2005 and in North America and Australia in December. It is open-ended, with activities such as collecting items, fish and insects or socializing with the villagers. The game is synchronized with the DS clock and calendar, so day and night follow the real hour and snow falls in the cold months. Events happen at particular times of the year, such as holidays, and the collectible fauna varies with the month or season. The game has a high level of customization, including the player character's appearance. A village that follows the real calendar is still worth checking in on today.
