The tree is up, the lights are on, the stockings are over the fireplace and everyone’s getting into the eggnog. It’s Christmas and it’s the best time of year.
Nothing beats Christmas; it’s the time for fun and play, for family and friends. It’s the chance to get away from work and reset the batteries. And, of course, it’s the perfect time to knock off some of those games that you just haven’t been able to get around to.
As is tradition for Digitally Downloaded we’re going to count down the 24 games of Christmas – one a day for each day from December 1 through to December 24. The fun, the silly and the crazy, these games have been custom picked by the DDNet editorial team to give you plenty of ideas for stocking fillers, games to play with family and friends on Christmas Eve, or games you should use the extra time over the holiday to get stuck into.
Don’t wait for Christmas day to get Animal Crossing: New Leaf. This is a game that has special events on for special days, and if you only start playing at Christmas you’ll miss the festivities. So grab the game earlier and get playing so you can enjoy Christmas day with your virtual animal buddies.
If you already have Animal Crossing, perhaps you’ve stopped playing recently (after all, Pokemon was just released…). Well, be sure to jump back into the town, clear out the weeds and squash the roaches. You’re going to want to get the town spick and span for the big party.
Animal Crossing is a game that never really leaves you. Now if you’ll excuse me, I have to go and earn some bells; there’s a cafe that needs building.
