TakingFantastic deeper than I thought game that captures the charm and magic of Animal Crossing while presenting hours and hours of fun. Taking away around $30 for the amiibo, the game drops to $30, which is well it!
   Also, please mark the ZERO review of uncoveringlight for "intention to annoy" As giving any game a zero review proves they never played it and intentionally trying to drop the score.… Expand

   I love this game. It is at its heart a wonderful and pure extension of all my Animal Crossing experiences. My wife and I and our kidsI love this game. It is at its heart a wonderful and pure extension of all my Animal Crossing experiences. My wife and I and our kids thoroughly enjoy it. It isn't Mario Party and I'm glad for that. If that is what you were hoping for, you were doomed from the start. This is an Animal Crossing game. Think about the kinds of games you play on the Island and about hide and seek.... etc. Anything Mario Party about them? Not really. OF COURSE this isn't like Mario Party!!
   
   Festival is simple, laid back. Like everything about Animal Crossing, it is about taking time to enjoy things. You know, like the way AC has always punished people for running around (like Mario and Luigi no doubt would?) Customizing our gameboard village with Amiibo card villagers was really satisfying for my family as we each took turns choosing which villager to invite.
   
   Each pack of Amiibo cards is an event for my family as we see familiar faces from our current or previous villages. My son cheered when he saw Bella in our most recent pack. One of his faves from our City Folk village. She was his card choice to invite to live in the gameboard village naturally.
   
   The gameplay in the boardgame is pretty basic, but can be a hoot with 4 players who love AC and have some history together. My family has enjoyed every game so far and had some great laughs along the way. As far as the mini-games go, my son and I greatly enjoy the Island escape mini-game and the Balloon game in particular.
   
   I feel that it is a worthy product in the AC universe and worth every penny I've spent on it. and will spend on it in the future.… Expand

   I guess that I'm in the minority here, but I actually really enjoy this game. Don't get me wrong, most of the claims I hear around the gameI guess that I'm in the minority here, but I actually really enjoy this game. Don't get me wrong, most of the claims I hear around the game are valid. The gameplay is too simple; it's too slow-paced, even for Animal Crossing; it takes no skill... and honestly? I agree. But I really can't bring myself to be as mad at this game as most people are. I have fun when I play it, it's a relaxing experience. The graphics are adorable. Do I wish that there was more from a game like this, especially one that requires you to have amiibos just to play it? Absolutely. But I'm sticking with my own opinions, and I think that if you already collect amiibos, this game is a lot of fun.… Expand

It isn't anything alike of Animal Crossing and the cost of the game plus all the characters are way too expensive for what you get (in my opinion)..
   It isn't that great, although it might be fun to play when you have people coming over and want some quality time.… Expand

   Animal Crossing: Amiibo Festival is a spin-off party game of the Animal Crossing series that in no right deserves to be a standalone game.Animal Crossing: Amiibo Festival is a spin-off party game of the Animal Crossing series that in no right deserves to be a standalone game.
   The game has you control your character's movements by tapping one of several compatible amiibo - in fact, to play co-op each player must have a different amiibo and half of the game is locked unless you can buy the amiibo to unlock it.
   The fact that even the dice is controlled via amiibo diminishes the small amount of interactivity the game does have, with the only good thing being the graphics. Apart from that, Animal Crossing: Amiibo Festival is just a mockery of a fun, co-operative party game, instead just being a vain attempt to market merchandise.
   I don't believe it's the amiibo that ruins the game, as Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer for the 3DS utilises them perfectly. What makes the game a failure is it's lack of interactivity or fun, and the fact it's a game retailed at full price is ridiculous. In my opinion, it should just be a side feature/minigame in a proper Animal Crossing game, and even then it would need some major improvements.… Expand
