On Wednesday, the various regional Animal Crossing accounts on Twitter started a retweet campaign – if this tweet, combined with similar tweets on other Animal Crossing Twitter accounts, reached a combined total of 50,000 retweets, then all Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp players would receive two types of Fortune Cookies. The goal has already been met, however a new goal has now been set. If the amount of retweets reaches 100,000, then all players will receive two each of the previously announced Fortune Cookies, plus an additional Fortune Cookie as a bonus. The campaign will last until March 4th, 5:59 AM GMT.

RemiLore is a beautiful game at face value that brings you into a fantasy world of magic and adventure. You’ll play as the protagonist Remi and her grimoire companion throughout dungeons that are vibrant and stand out compared to other titles within the genre. However, while things may seem appealing and inviting at the surface, what you ultimately have is a game with a bit of an identity crisis as it incorporates so many elements between its story, gameplay, structure, and mechanics that it feels like a mess attempting too much at once just to stand out further. There’s promise to be had every time you play through it, but nothing ever clicks or feels as if it belongs, making the entire experience feel like one big “what’s the point?” scenario.
