The amount of insults and passive-aggressive comments that can be found within Animal Crossing games is pretty surprising, considering that the franchise is marketed mostly at children (although all of us don’t care ????).
The older Animal Crossing games are especially notorious for rude and insulting characters. While recent Animal Crossing games have seen ‘levels of savagery toned down’, the games still contain plenty of banter, emotions, and insults to keep game play interesting.
Here are ten examples that addequately demonstrate just how savage a seemingly cute and innocent game can be.

In the original game, the aim of players was to assume the roles of citizens of Maple World and improve their character’s skill and status over time. Additionally, with the seal of the antagonistic Black Mage weakening, the player is given a quest to prevent his resurrection. However, he eventually escapes the seal keeping him contained anyway, and sets out to rule over Maple World.
The MapleStory franchise also extended to a DS game, a Korean anime series, and a Facebook adaptation.

The game takes many of the features of its predecessor but applies them to a 3D environment.
The game is available to play on Microsoft Windows and can be purchased from Steam for $24.99.

[dropcap]P[/dropcap]rofessor Layton And The Curious Village was initially released by Level-5 for Nintendo DS in Japan in 2007. Fast forward to 11 years later, and Layton fans can play a remastered HD version of the enigmatic game on either iOS or Android.
The game features the gentlemanly Professor Hershel Layton, a puzzle-loving archaeologist, and his young assistant Luke Triton, an easily nettled boy with a huge appetite and an ability to talk to animals.
The first game has the duo searching on behalf of a wealthy widow for an elusive artefact supposedly hidden by her late husband, the Baron. Whoever finds the artefact will inherit the Baron’s immense wealth.
With a beautiful animation style synonymous of Level-5, captivating music and plenty of suspense and emotion, the game remains entertaining despite its age, hence why a remake was made.
The trailer for the polished puzzle game can be watched below.
