Looks can be deceiving. Just because a game is made up of friendly, happy, and cute animals doesn’t mean that it’s all cupcakes and rainbows. You never know that this sweet and colorful game hides a deep and dark secret. The game actually imprisons the player in the “camp” and is being forced to slave away in order to pay off the things that were forced down your throat.

Not only that, it also shows cannibalism, deception, manipulation, and misdirection. Furthermore, Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp got weird and creepy to the next level by imprisoning their villagers like it’s a fun thing to do. These kinds of things are not what you would expect to the all smiles and friendly animals in a colorful world of Animal Crossing.
