Sure, Animal Crossing can be wholesome. Initially aimed at children, and classed as a family-friendly game, why wouldn’t it be? However, if you look closely enough/play it enough, you might question this wholesomeness. The series can be surprisingly dark at times, sometimes directly and sometimes indirectly.
And so, here are my top 10 examples of times where Animal Crossing got dark. If you want more Animal Crossing fun, check out our 10 Examples of Absolute Savagery in Animal Crossing.

3. What a weird dream am I right? ????
4. Why are you not more concerned?! ????
5. Even more creepy when you look into what a Kappa is… ????
6. Well at least she’s honest..? ????
7. There should be some items that Nintendo disclude from villagers’ vocabulary… ????
8. ^^^ ????
9. Nice and toasty like… ????
10. Wut. ????

[dropcap]P[/dropcap]okemon fans are in for a treat with a vibrant upcoming MMORPG entitled Temtem.
The game is currently in development by indie developers Crema, who are also publishing the game. With a Kickstarter for the game only launched on May 29th 2018, the estimated delivery of the finished game is November 2019. However, the developers are aiming to release an alpha version of the game on November 29th 2018 (although they have admitted that this may be delayed until December 2018).
Temtem will be accessible to most gamers due to the variety of platforms it will be released on. These platforms include Steam (Windows), Nintendo Switch, Xbox One and PS4. The game will be launched on Steam, Xbox One and PS4 at the same time. Alpha and Early Access versions of the game will only happen on Steam
Temtem, which is heavily inspired by pokemon, takes place in the aesthetic Airborne Archipelago and is described by Crema as “a massively multiplayer creature-collection adventure”. Alongside your Temtem squad, you can catch and collect Temtems, battle rival tamers, customize your house, join in on a friend’s adventure and explore a dynamic online world.
- Story Campaign: Journey across six vivid islands and embark on the adventure of becoming a Temtem tamer while fighting against the evil Clan Belsoto.

- Customize: Customize your character to stand out from the crowd and get new cosmetics while you battle other tamers. Pick a silly hat, a comfy sweatshirt, some pants and you’re ready to go! Or maybe you prefer to wear a full-on cosplay of your favorite Temtem?
- Competitive: Start by choosing 10 Temtem and the pick and ban phase will begin. Take turns with your rival to pick your Temtem and ban theirs. When all the decisions are made and the turns are ended, you will end up with a squad of 4 Temtem and the battle will begin.

[dropcap]A[/dropcap]n adorable indie action-adventure game is coming to Xbox and Steam very soon. The game, which is entitled TUNIC, is highly anticipated by both Xbox owners and PC gamers alike. The game was incredibly well received at Microsoft’s E3 presser earlier this year and has received numerous compliments on its alluring graphics, leading many to believe that TUNIC has the potential to become one of the best indie games out there.
About:
TUNIC is an upcoming cute indie action-adventure game that is expected to be released exclusively for Windows and Mac through Steam, and for Xbox One.
TUNIC has impressively been developed by just one man, Andrew Shouldice, who decided to quit his job at Silverback Productions to produce content of his own. In past interviews, Shouldice has said the following about TUNIC‘s influences:
“Tunic is inspired by lots of games, but at the forefront is the sense of discovery that we experienced when playing games as kids. That feeling of being in a place that’s new, a bit scary, and bigger than you! We often ask players what games Tunic reminds them of, if you feel like it’s in there, it was probably an inspiration.“
The game will be published by Finji, who also published the popular game Night In The Woods. A price and release date for the game have not yet been announced.
TUNIC takes place from an isometric perspective. With a distinct attractive art style, TUNIC has frequently been compared to games such as Zelda.
Originally entitled Secret Legend, TUNIC is an action adventure game focusing on the journey of a small yet heroic fox in a big world. Players can explore rugged landscapes, discover eerie ruins, and combat terrible creatures.
Features:
- A world made of cute, blocky items
- Discover monstrous dungeons
- Stumble upon spooky ruins
- Explore puzzle-filled lands
- Experience a variety of wild landscapes
- Uncover the game’s hidden secrets
- Fight terrible creatures from long ago
- Smart controls
TUNIC has undeniably been visually and mechanically influenced by Zelda games. However, it is also quite relaxed with a primary focus on exploration. Therefore success seems likely due to its seemingly family-friendly nature and its appeal to a variety of gamers.
