Nintendo 3DS/2DS: Fantasy Life review by Hag
Out on Nintendo 3DS and 2DS 26/9/14 (PEGI 7) “TOP END” 5 Stars
Parent View:
Hag’s hooked on another ‘Animal Crossing’ meets ‘Pokemon’ style game. Kidz of Hag’s age (9 years old) crave a little more independence so games like ‘fantasy Life’ offer that experience in a safe virtual reality setting. I’m not saying its better than freely wandering around the real world as we did as Kidz back in the day – but in a time of ‘paranoid parenting’ this is a fun substitute to that sadly lost freedom.
What I like best about the new ‘Fantasy Life’ game (as a parent) is the moral teaching and importance of having a good work ethic in this world.
Kidz have the chance to pick various job roles and if they work hard and master the skills needed for each career they get promoted and have more opportunities become available. This is a cracking life lesson from a video game and true for real life. Also it’s really good fun too. Highly Recommended!!!
