About this game
FANTASY LIFE i: The Girl Who Steals Time - Nintendo Switch 2 Edition brings together gathering, crafting and monster battles through instantly changeable vocations. Collect fish, ore, timber and crops, create equipment or furnishings, and choose sword, bow or magic-based combat. Its island mystery features a Bone Dragon with the ability to travel through time. You can reshape island terrain, construct buildings and decorate your house, then head out to climb, swim or ride across Ginormosia. Planting a Treasure Grove sapling creates a dungeon that changes layout after clearance. This edition has a paid upgrade route for owners of the Nintendo Switch version; when played on an original Nintendo Switch, it follows that version's features and performance.
