You arrive at Hokko village, fresh off the train about to start your new life. Get ready to craft, paint, build, design, decorate, farm, fish, bug hunt, and so much more in this relaxing Animal Crossing-like title.

From the official Hokko Life website, the description of Hokko Life is as follows:

Hokko Life is a creativity-filled community sim game that invites players to escape the hustle-bustle and relax in their new home of Hokko. Build the town of your dreams with Hokko Life’s creativity tools, which allow you to customize and design furniture, clothing, and much more! Those creative juices not flowing? Why not relax and while away the hours at a local fishing spot; out hunting bugs; or tending to your garden!

Hokko Life is a title that many will be happy to see coming to PC, especially for Animal Crossing fans. With comparable and additional features similar to Animal Crossing, Hokko Life looks to retain the charm of the franchise with so much more to add. And it is all done by a one-person team. Developed by Robert Tatnell with composer Chris Köbke, Hokko Life is one of those rare titles that has us super excited to try out, not just because it resembles the popular Nintendo franchise, but because we love supporting small teams of independent developers.

Currently in Early Access, you can give the game a try now by signing up, play around a bit and provide feedback for the development team, or you can add the game to your Wishlist and get notified of its final release. You can expect to see the game’s final build released sometime in 2021.
