Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp is available to download on mobile, and it's kind of adorable. You may understandably not be impressed by its free-to-play trappings, but the game is hot news right now.
It's also popular social media fodder. While Pocket Camp is most definitely "Animal Crossing Lite," you still spend a lot of time goofing around with (and tormenting) the animal pals we've come to know and love across the years. That said: Roscoe! Why won't you visit my campsite, you sentient sack of dog food? I thought we had something special in Wild World.
Here's some of the cutest / funniest / most disturbing Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp media people have shared across the past few days.

“All right, I bought a Port-o-Potty. Now you can all stop relieving yourself in the playground area like a bunch of ... animals. Hey! Beau! What’d I just say?!” pic.twitter.com/8KhGNijM9w

Manage cookie settingsThing that bothers me about the Port-o-Potty accessory is how the animals will never actually go in, but they'll stand in front of it for hours. What are they doing? Worshipping it? Presumably someone is in there and the animals outside are waiting for their turn, but a quick head count always reveals everyone's accounted for. So who's in there?

I ran away from my debt and a job that I didn't want in the first place. I bought an old camper and just drove away. I've never stayed too long in one place. So then I've finally decided to settle down. I thought I found a quiet job in the forest... but SHE found me first... pic.twitter.com/i29exJWAkR
