Hokko Life
SCORE: 73
I performed three live streams of Hokko Life on YouTube. There are
some interesting things within Hokko Life. There are also some concepts
in Hokko Life that encourage me for some video game ideas I have. Hokko
Life is an Animal Crossing clone. Hokko Life is not as good as Animal
Crossing. There are some controversial and divisive content within Hokko
Life as well. I will get into that in just a minute.
We wind up in this town after taking a train, and wind up settling. Not
only do we settle in Hokko Life but we are bringing the town back to
life. We are also building houses and making the town grow. As we
progress through Hokko Life we unlock new content. For example we get
the pickaxe and then can get into the mine. We collect bugs, and craft
quite a bit. There is fishing in Hokko Life as well.
Hokko Life contains some content that could offend a great many
families. Characters refer to other characters as they instead of the
reality of he/she. Pronoun mental illness is a major part of Hokko Life.
We also have shrines that we can pray to in Hokko Life. Why was that
needed? Why was that included? I keep hearing that we could not do an
Animal Crossing with a church, but I see other religious beliefs being
included in these games.
I like planting and harvesting in Hokko Life. I wish there were some
things included earlier. Like I kept looking for ways to store more of
my resources in Hokko Life. A great many times I would go get resources
after seeing what was needed. The same went for repairing certain items
in Hokko Life. I like the concept of being able to repair items in Hokko
Life. At times it made no sense though. A character has a bed but wanted
another one.
Routinely we would place something in a character's house in Hokko Life.
A lot of times the character's house did not have a lot of space to
place it. There are a lot of different missions we could do for the
villagers in Hokko Life. The villagers are also animal characters in
Hokko Life. I found Hokko Life to be a bit more boring than Animal
Crossing personally.
