Minigames with villagers

[GAMESweet]

It would be cool if we could see a thought bubble while a villager is playing on the pinball, arcades and dart machines etc. That's placed somewhere on the island. They get an average score in one of those games. But we got to try and beat their score in order to get a prize from them.

There could be another way we could play a minigame with them. We start talking to them and say we want to play a minigame with them. They'll say interact with a minigame machine and they'll come to play. The minigame could have a mini window that pops out to display the games of Pinball, Mahjong, Combat Fighter etc. And you got to press buttons on the joycons to match with the displayed icons.

However some villagers (cranky, snooty & smug) may not enjoy losing a match and might consider moving out if they're beaten many times. But if you let them win they would improve your relationship with them. Other villagers personality types, would enjoy minigames since they don't mind been beaten. Which would boost your relationship with them.

I think adding more minigames would be really fun -- I'm down for anything that adds extra features to potential interactions with villagers! I'm a bit hesitant on getting penalized for winning against them though... I think it would be nice if there was something villager exclusive like a villager picture on the line instead, so winning/losing is lower stakes.

I'd be so up for mini games! It would add another dimension to interactions with villagers. I just can so imagine going up against Judy in a game and having her be absolutely fuming at losing lol. This would be such a great addition, and it would make some of the placeable game items more usable. I'd even settle for being able to go on the teacup ride with villagers or slide or something simple.
