The Best Games Like Animal Crossing on iOS & Android [Sep 13 Updated]

Fans of Animal Crossing may be once again disappointed at the lack of information for the upcoming mobile game. Hopes of Animal Crossing for mobile spiraled downwards at Apple's Keynote event when there was no news for any of Nintendo's mobile games.

Nintendo has been painfully quiet about any of its upcoming mobile games as of late and fans are starting get worried. So here are a few games that can be currently played on mobile. Some of them have a striking resemblance to Animal Crossing.

Seabeard has been around for quite some time now and plays very closely to Animal Crossing where players can quest and explore the world. It however lacks the vast amount of things to do in Animal Crossing but the basics have a close resemblance to the Nintendo DS exclusive. Sporting the same colorful and adorable graphics, this goes to the top of the list for players who want to play Animal Crossing on mobile.

The Sims FreePlay is the original version of its upcoming successor. By now, everyone is already familiar with how the Sims plays out but the mobile version has some limitations. The Sims FreePlay is basically your typical PC Sims version complete with quests, online modes, social interactions and has been around for well over 5 years which means that the Sims Freeplay has a lot of content accumulated over the years. It still lacks the cute humor and dialogue of Animal Crossing but its still a game worth playing while we wait for a new Animal Crossing game.

The Sims Mobile plays very similar to its predecessor except for one major feature: Sims Legacy. The legacy feature allows the player to unlock and carry over things and perks that your previous sims may have achieved. Your first sim may start off from humble beginnings, carving out a path to fame which in turn affect their future children and their children's future children. Your first sim may become a scientist that will eventually unlock the ability for future generations to become astronauts. However, the Sims Mobile is currently only available in the UK and the only alternative to get it on your smart phones is through download of its apk which may be harmful to your device.

Happy Street is a casual mobile game where players may build their own street in however fashion they desire. Trading with other players and gifting items is one of the social features of the game and contains customization aspects that Animal Crossing fans will enjoy. Happy Street also sports the same graphics style however lacks the adventuring life style that Animal Crossing has to offer and thus is only 4th on our list.

From the makers of Clash of Clans, Hayday brings players to a build-your-own farm game. Featuring awesome customization allows players to design their farms however they wish. Their latest update now includes a new town mechanic. Hayday is heavily social by allowing players to trade specialized goods with other players. This allows players to focus on one product and that product line. If a player decides to focus on eggs, milk and wheat, that player may be able to sell cakes, bread, and other similar by-products. Heavily addicting and fun Hayday only makes it to number 5 due to its lack of exploring that Animal Crossing provided to more adventurous players.

Fantasy Life Online is an upcoming life simulation/roll-playing game for mobile devices by level 5. As the second title in the Fantasy Life series, the name of the game was Fantasy Life 2 when it was announced at first.

Players build their own villages in the game. You can visit villages run by other players as being friends with them online. While doing that Animal Crossing like life simulation, you'll also explore dungeons to beat enemies and collect materials.

Fantasy Life hasn't been released yet and it's coming late 2017. Some Fantasy Life fans could play it during the final Beta test which was from July 15 to July 22 in 2017.

There is no official trailer video currently.

Nintendo has promised that several of their upcoming games will be coming to mobile. However Nintendo has been focused on its newest Nintendo Switch however that shouldn't be the cause as to why they have been silent about any news regarding their upcoming mobile games.
