Games as a medium can be quite intense. When you think of the hardcore FPS games out there, the high octane racers and the grey hack and slash titles, you can almost feel your heartbeat go up just a little. However, amongst all these intense titles have always been games that take the foot off the gas, allowing players to play at their own pace, have a leisurely time and give players the freedom to play their own way. One such game that epitomizes this approach is Animal Crossing.
Animal Crossing is a wholesome experience for all who set foot on their own island, allowing players to create communities of vibrant, fun-loving characters, build a town from the ground up and collect tonnes of fun goodies. Not to mention a great co-op set-up that’s tonnes of fun too. At Creature Crossing, we aim to replicate this approach, creating a wholesome community of AC players and acting as a social hub and a resource for all players who want some hints and tips on how to succeed in this lovely game.
Our team has a staggering collective knowledge when it comes to Animal Crossing. We have played thousands of hours collectively tending to our towns, cities, and islands, We have played from the humble Gamecube days to the modern age of AC on the Nintendo Switch, and we have paid millions of bells to the nefarious Tom Nook! All of this makes us your ideal guides to this wonderful game series!
Our Goal
Creature Crossing has one clear and straightforward goal, and that is to provide a comprehensive overview of all things Animal Crossing. We aim to not just provide content for the newest updates and offerings within AC: New Horizons, but also offer some content for older titles like New Leaf, Pocket Camp, City Folk, and Wild World. We aim to be a one-stop-shop for all things Animal Crossing, and unlike that dastardly Tom Nook, we won’t make you pay through the nose to see our content.
Wheter it’s the more retro titles like Wild World & City Folk, or the new, shiny outings like New Horizons and Pocket Camp, we have a writer that will be able to give you all the AC related info you could ever need!
We aim to offer an inclusive service that caters to all players, whether you be just starting out, or an AC pro. We aim to provide an encyclopedia of knowledge when it comes to this game franchise. Allowing you to create your town, island or city exactly as you want, get all the items that you desire and pack your settlement with as many cool villagers as possible. We aim to make your AC experience as stress-free as possible so that you can relax, unwind and have a good time.
What We Offer
At Creature Crossing, we provide an abundance of Animal Crossing content, which will help you on your way to making your settlement thrive. A lot of our content is made up of detailed guides which will give you clear instructions on how to do certain things within the game. For example, how to make more money daily, how to collect certain resources, how to earn loads of Nook Miles, how to catch certain bugs and fish, and much more.
At Creature Crossing, we aim to provide a range of content. We have villager guides, mechanic guides, creative ideas for designing clothes and interiors, merch guides and much more. Our goal is to make sure that all AC fans are spoiled for choice!
Plus, we will also have some content that is a little more opinionated and light-hearted. For example, we will offer content that reviews the different villagers that can stay on your island, we will offer reviews and news blasts about new updates, we will rank our favorite main characters and we will also see who within the Animal Crossing community has the coolest attire and houses. In short, anything Animal Crossing-related you could wish for is right here.
