Redefining the life simulation RPG genre, Fantasy Life 2, avowed successor of the title that dared to imagine 'Animal Crossing meets The Legend of Zelda', justifies the extended 11-year wait - it could conceivably be this year's Game of the Year.

Fantasy Life i Sequel Delights Players with Robust Content and Upcoming DLC

Fantasy Life i: The Girl Who Steals Time, the long-awaited sequel to the 2012 life simulation RPG, has been warmly received by players since its launch on multiple platforms. This full-fledged game offers a delightful blend of Animal Crossing-style coziness, Zelda-inspired dungeoneering, and class-based RPG progression, refined with quality-of-life improvements.

Over 18 hours of gameplay has been invested by players since the release on PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X, Nintendo Switch, and PC. Although the game has experienced a few technical hiccups, players have been enamored with its addictive gameplay, engaging systems, and thoughtful design.

The game invites players to choose and master 14 Lives, each focusing on combat, gathering, or production. For instance, taking on the role of a Mercenary involves combat actions, while switching to Miner during a dungeon crawl allows players to mine valuable resources for crafting purposes. Back at the island base, players can use this material to refine items as a Blacksmith, Carpenter, or Tailor, contributing to a continuous cycle of progression.

Fantasy Life i is a game that thrives on empowering players by providing clear objectives, rewarding accomplishments, and endless possibilities for exploration. Every step leads to new discoveries, whether that's a side quest, a hidden collectible, or simply finding materials to complete the ever-demanding Life challenges.

One typical session might involve hunting a challenging boss for a level boost, but along the way, players can also gather freshly respawned legendary trees and fish. They may stumble upon a hidden dungeon or overhear intriguing tidbits from NPCs, leading to novel adventures.

Fantasy Life i boasts an impressive amount of content. Despite progressing through the game for 18 hours, players feel only a tenth complete, yet never overwhelmed. The game continually offers more, be it new NPC buffs, roguelike dungeon mode challenges, house decoration options, or island terraforming opportunities.

A significant open-world section offers its own progression systems, subplots, and quests. Crossplay multiplayer allows friends to join in on the fun, particularly for roguelike dungeon runs. Despite being in the early hours of the game, players are already engrossed and overjoyed by their experiences.
