I was kind of sad because there are fewer things you can do in the mobile app, compared to the 3DS version. Yoko Taro ( Nier: Automata) - I played the 3DS DobuMori ( Animal Crossing), and you know the raccoon who makes you get a mortgage without agreeing to it? It was like the Lehman Shock ( The Bankruptcy Of Lehman Brothers), so I wanted to get revenge on him in the mobile version. To get a better sense of how the game is going over with devs around the industry, and what bits of Pocket Camp stand out to them (for better and for worse), Gamasutra reached out and asked: what do you think about that new, mobile Animal Crossing? It's a common F2P monetization scheme, but many feel that it undercuts some or all of what makes Animal Crossing games meaningful. Nintendo earns money on the game by selling in-game currency ('Leaf Tickets') that can be spent to speed up the game's systems, thereby allowing the player to progress more quickly.
Players curry favor with the villager NPCs (and thereby gain levels) by chatting them up, bringing them traditional Animal Crossing collectibles (fruits, bugs, and fish), and building specific pieces of camp furniture. It's a mobile, free-to-play spin on the company's venerable Animal Crossing franchise, one that asks players to make camp in a bucolic land and build a campsite for fellow players and in-game villagers to visit.
