I felt like putting my ideas into one so here we go:

You start off in an area similar to the desert island escape island with your new expedition assistant, Isabelle.

You and Isabelle vow to turn this area into a paradise for animals, after realizing how the perfect the area is for peaceful living.

Unlike other animal crossing games you will not start off with any villagers but rather a big tent with an office that you will report new finds at and a living area for relaxing. After you reach a certain point in the story you will be familiarized with these animals...Digby, Lottie, Lyle and Tom Nook. These four along with Isabelle will help you make this island into the perfect place for animals because they were sent by the place you work for.

Digby will introduce you to new villagers.
Lottie will help you with interior and exterior design for villager houses, landscapes and projects.
Lyle will give you new items for villager house designs and he will also tell you about villagers likes and dislikes.
Tom Nook will be the one who builds the houses including your own!

These lovely people are from the Happy Home Academy, a place that is a branch of the Happy Animal Association, HAA is a hub in many ways.

Your space is limited at first but once you start working and building things you will receive investment grants from the Happy Animal Association, the place you work for, to develop the area with more advanced landscapes, projects and space. They will also let you know your island's, later town's Growth Rate.

Your expedition area's/ town's Growth Rate is an indication of how far you have came in the game. At certain points the HAA will send you new equipment for landscaping, public works projects, villager house exteriors and player house exteriors. Later this will be replaced by a town tree that will be sent by the HAA later in the game, this is how you will keep up to date with your town's Growth Rate.

Isabelle has a slightly different role in this game, she is an advisor throughout the game and she will help you shape your town into a friendly environment for every animal to live in harmony in. She is the first person you see and will let you know who you should see and will be an instruction manual of sorts during the game.



Villager Species and Personalities + Encyclopaedia Sections.​

Once you're town is a reasonable place to live in villagers will move in!

Here are the species:
Alligators
Anteaters
Birds

In addition to these there are 3 more species to this large variety!

- Platypuses
- Bats
- Kiwis

All of which are very unique, they wont move in until your town already has 8 villagers and your towns Growth Rate has reached 5/50. 12 Villagers is the maximum.

There are Cranky, Jock, Lazy, Peppy, Normal, Smug, Snooty and Uchi. In addition to these there are two new personalities, Nerd for male villagers and Hippie for female villagers.

Speaking of species here's another two fields you can fill your encyclopaedia with!

- Reptiles
- Amphibians

Chip the Beaver will return for Fish tourneys
Nat the Chameleon will return for Bug tourneys
and a new addition....
Moony the Mongoose will be introduced to hold Reptile tourneys.

Unfortunately there are still no diving tourneys and there won't be any Amphibian tourneys.
At the beginning you have barely any resources for public works projects but this will change later on, the HAA will send you new equipment to update current PWPS to make them look more advanced and appealing. Updating is new in this game, you can upgrade certain PWPS and a guide will be provided on which ones can and cant be upgraded, e.g Zen Bells can' t while the Campsite can. Not to worry as Villagers will still request new PWPS.

Cyrus and Reese!

Cyrus will be in charge of updating PWPS and refurbishing furniture at Re-tail like in New Leaf.
Reese will be in charge of buying items, managing the flea market and regulating turnip prices at Re-tail.

Decorate your home, find a new villager to move in, shop for clothes and your expedition is over....there's such much to do in this game that doesn't even exist...sigh...:(

I wrote that when it was late, so I wasn't going to go into much detail but I will when I can.

What section needs more detail, btw?

It would help me out if you told me. Thanks. c:

Oooh how about being able to sail to holiday characters and their towns with each town having it's own theme?

I was thinking about adding this feature to Jingle and Jingle only.

You could visit the North Pole with Jingle, you get to meet Mrs. Jingle, Elves, e.t.c but I didn't want to add it because I thought it would ruin the friendly neighbour hood vibe as you won't be in your town at Toy Day.
 
Visiting them at other times maybe? And helping them with chores around their town, letting them have a vacation.
