What does Animal Crossing New Horizons need?

Since the release on Animal Crossing New Horizons, the game has dominated the video game and pop culture space, but what now? Why is it losing its spot? What happened?

Animal Crossing fans know that the game has always been a long term investment not a sprint. Decorating you island has added endless possibilities but the game still unfolds slowly. You could visit others islands to open up your catalog but if you don't your catalog will build at a snails pace.

What do we need?

1. A bigger Nook's. Time for the boys to get another upgrade. A second story.

2. Games - The 3DS version of the game had some things that should not make an appearance in ACNH but the mini games were fun. Going to an island and playing against others would add a lot to this version on Animal Crossing.

3. Multiple buy feature in Able sisters. It takes too long to buy every color of flip-flop. Just let us buy more things at once.

4. The characters need to talk less. By this point I have heard the same speech from Gulliver and Blathers. I need to be able to skip past the same useless dialogue after I have read it 20 times.

New Horizons is fun but it needs to keep sending updates to survive once people can get back to real life.

I can't wait to see what Thanksgiving (Harvest) and Christmas (Toy Day) look like in New Horizons but it is time to add a few other need features as well.

Lego Games: Fun for parent and child

A blast with little plastic bricks....

As a dad, both my daughter and I love to play video games. One of the series of games we have found that we can both enjoy is the Lego games. We started playing with the original Star Wars Lego games and we moved on to so many more. The games are getting better with time and even a little more complicated.  The games are usually pretty easy to learn but harder to master.

If you love the theme, legos, or just fun video games then you might find these games to be a good fit for you and your family.

The ups and the downs -

The upside to Lego games:

• Great themes and recognizable characters
• Easy to learn but harder to complete (100%)
• Cooperative play - You get a chance to help or be helped by your child.
• There is a high level of replay value.

The Downside to Lego games:

• They are glitch prone
• The split-screen feature can get annoying 

As a dad and a gamer, I suggest you check out the Lego themed video games. They are fun games that do not take themselves to seriously and are good FAMILY fun.
