I don’t have any experience with the Animal Crossing games/franchise (though I’ve played Rune Factory 4 which has similar mechanics), but I thought this was cute.

Here, four basically dumb humans (dummy, rich girl, sleepy, and scholar) arrive at a deserted island and are chaperoned by a raccoon named Tom Nook who acts as a straight man (comedywise). The humans get into wacky situations and always comedically miss the point of taking care of themselves on the island (making a house out of trash, eating uncooked fish, etc). 

I’m sure the gags will be more fun to a fan of the series, especially the character jokes, but it still works as a standalone. Of course, the illustrations are just adorable! Gulliver, the eagle always in distress, was making me laugh! But I don’t know if I would want to read more. Maybe if my library buys another volume.
