Feeling lonely?
"It's almost like getting someone's number, because having them visit your island is kind of like inviting them to your house," he said, explaining that"it's a pain to get to an island." According to him, you still have to go to the airport and fly there, which means you have to be a little more determined to go on dates with someone in Animal Crossing.
"They get to see your house and plants, and you have to trust them not to steal," Damian added, saying that the experience of hanging out with someone on their island has been a"wholesome and cute way to flirt" through chatting, participating in virtual BBQs, or gifting each other useful tools to help their overall progress in the game.
Singles aren't the only ones using Animal Crossing and Club Penguin to hang out. In fact, many long-distance couples have been using both games to go on virtual date nights together. After all, as Canadian Club Penguin user Sophie said, while she and her UK-based boyfriend have still been FaceTiming regularly,"During quarantine, we've done everything but go on a virtual date like this, so it was a whole new experience. We're long distance, so we have to find virtual stuff to do together."
Sophie was a Club Penguin regular at its peak, but she said she had"kind of forgotten about it" until seeing a Twitter post about CP Rewritten. And though her boyfriend had never played, they both decided to create accounts so that they could go on a virtual date to celebrate their six-month anniversary — something Sophie said was an incredibly fun, nostalgia-inducing experience for her.
