Why Animal Crossing Fans Will Love This Surprising Hello Kitty Feature!

by

The enchanting world of Hello Kitty Island Adventure has sparked excitement within the simulation gaming community, potentially influencing future updates for the beloved Animal Crossing series. Given that there’s buzz about a possible new Nintendo Switch console and a potential new Animal Crossing game to launch alongside it, it’s evident that the upcoming title needs to deliver fresh experiences for players. With rivals like Hello Kitty Island Adventure introducing innovative twists on classic simulation genre mechanics, Nintendo will need to bring something unique to the table with their next Animal Crossing installment.

Each game that has mimicked the style of “Animal Crossing” doesn’t necessarily replicate its exact gameplay. Although specific elements like the Museum aren’t directly found in “Hello Kitty Island Adventure”, it does incorporate a similar feature under a different name. If “Animal Crossing” were to expand upon its Museum, it might push Blathers to his limits, but fans would be thrilled if the next game in the series took inspiration from “Hello Kitty Island Adventure”.

Hello Kitty Island Adventure Lets Players Go One-on-One with Critters

Instead of giving creatures to a Museum, players in Hello Kitty Island Adventure transfer any critters they manage to capture to the Nature Preserve situated within Spooky Swamp. These critters are showcased at the Nature Preserve and sorted into one of five areas depending on where they were found: Bog (Spooky Swamp), Seaside (Seaside Resort), Reef (Rainbow Reef), Gemstone (Gemstone Mountain), or Volcano (Mount Hothead). Some critters can also be donated to the Merry Meadows Critter Corral and the Cloud Island Critter Corral, but they only accept creatures from their respective territories. The critters are similar in nature to the diverse range of animals that can be given to Blathers’ Museum, such as insects, marine life, and amphibians.

In contrast to the Animal Crossing series, Hello Kitty Island Adventure offers players a more interactive experience with its Critters. Although Animal Crossing enables players to collect insects and present them as furniture items, the level of interaction in Hello Kitty Island Adventure is greater, as Critters can be housed in interactive terrariums. This might not equate to having pets per se, but it provides a more substantial interaction opportunity compared to what Animal Crossing offers.

Animal Crossing Should Make Blathers Bug Out

Enhancing the interactions with insects, aquatic animals, and other sea creatures in the upcoming version of “Animal Crossing” could offer a delightful addition to the game, bringing about substantial amusement. Integrating interactive terrariums in the Museum exclusively for Blathers’ disdain towards bugs would open doors for more humor within the game. Imagine players chasing Blathers with insects or both players and Blathers feeding the diverse creatures at the Museum. The “Animal Crossing” series is already brimming with laughter, but fans would undeniably appreciate more of it.

Exploring the idea of incorporating characters from the “Hello Kitty Island Adventure” into the Museum is another possible direction Nintendo might choose. Previously discussed were the similarities between the creatures in the Sanrio-themed simulation game and those in “Animal Crossing”, but it’s worth noting that “Hello Kitty Island Adventure” includes birds as characters in both its PC and console versions. More bird characters can be found in the Apple Arcade edition of the game. Interestingly, unlike “Animal Crossing” where players are humans, the player characters in “Hello Kitty Island Adventure” are animals, with one optional character being a bird.

If the world of Hello Kitty Island Adventure considers Villagers and Critters as belonging to the same animal category, Animal Crossing might find it appealing to do the same, excluding species like eagles and owls that are already featured in the game. There’s a wealth of ideas that Animal Crossing could draw from when examining Hello Kitty Island Adventure. Introducing Critters with a twist would not only delight players, but also spark laughter at the sight of Blathers expressing his disapproval.
