Only got about 20 minutes a day to spend gaming? Then spend it in Animal Crossing.
This is a very addicting little game. The concept is simple. Think of it as your own little digital sandbox, complete with NPC playmates (who come and go as they please), scores of fruit trees, and oh yah, a little mortgage to pay off. But the game play is simple, and content appropriate for gamers of all ages. I'm no kid, but man, some of the stuff your neighbors will talk to you about will make you laugh every time.
The WiFi features are pretty cool. I was bored at the mall waiting for some people, so I fired up the game, hopped on the free wifi in the area, and within a few minutes, someone from my friends list was visiting me. It was a neat way to pass the time.
As far as some of the other reviews for this game goes, the couple of low scores are from a couple gamers who clearly can't appreciate the deeper game play principles at work (or are otherwise oblivious to the limitations of the DS), and should probably trade in their DSs for PSPs.
