So basically you start life in a desserted island and are able to craft things or use earned currency to purchase them with the idea of building a happy community. Your environment and avartar are customisable and the in game seasons change with the real world seasons.
This game is open-ended and non-linear - but can you win or lose at this game? Are there negative consequences to making bad choices? Can you "complete" this game? Are there actual games / objectives or is it more of a talk to this NPC or plant a tree here type of game? Is it a big open world you get to explore or a smaller but potentially densely packed island?
You can’t really lose no and there aren’t really hugely negative consequences, certainly not major things that cant be undone.
You don’t really complete the game, you more end up setting your own goals and working towards them.
And it’s definitely not a big open world. Past Animal Crossings you have a small village (with plenty of going on) and a few other locations you can go visit like an island or shops-things like that.
