Disney Dreamlight Valley is our favourite early access game of the year 🏆 DisneyDLV
Disney Dreamlight Valley delivers on all its promises and is the only PC life sim to rival Animal Crossing—there, I said it. Whether you're a Disneyphile or not, there's so much to be getting on with in Dreamlight Valley, from growing and harvesting crops, relocating everyone's homes on a whim and the many, many character quests that are available.
Blink and 30 hours will have gone by and you're now richer than Scrooge McDuck because you're cheesing the pumpkin farm. The addition of new realms opens up new questlines for the latest valley inhabitants as well as your existing pals, and the Star Path isn't the most horrendous battle pass I've ever seen—not least because the best stuff isn't locked away until the very last level.
I've spent 70 hours in it already and I've yet to finish the character questlines for the initial cast, let alone what's been added with Scar, Buzz, and Woody since. And yeah, some of my time can be clocked to aforementioned fetch-questing, but most has honestly been spent rearranging every biome in my valley just the way I like, designing new clothes, or fiddling around to see if I can unlock new cooking recipes.
So far, Dreamlight Valley's public early access plans are to keep churning out new character stories, decor, and seasonal events, but I'm also eager to see if Gameloft adds additional activities too. That's just conjecture from me, but I'd be glad to have even more ways to keep myself busy on the island.
Sure, a live-service life sim is pretty specifically designed to extort my evenings out of me, but I've genuinely enjoyed losing that time. I'd have preferred getting sucked into an indie rendition on Animal Crossing this year, but alas the global Intellectual Property Brand did genuinely nail this one.Yep, I'm almost kinda mad that it took goddamn Disney to finally make an excellent Animal Crossing-like on PC, but credit where credit's due.
