Okay, so Hello Kitty - Big City Dreams is basically what happens when you drop Sanrio’s most famous cat into a tiny, pastel-colored urban sandbox. You start off in this cozy little apartment, and the whole vibe is like someone turned a Lisa Frank notebook into a DS game—super bright, super cute, and weirdly satisfying to just wander around in.

At first, you’re just running errands for neighbors (because of course Hello Kitty’s gotta help everyone), but then you unlock more of the city, and suddenly you’re decorating your place, collecting outfits, and even playing mini-games like flower arranging. It’s got that low-stakes, "I’ll just play for five minutes—oh wait, an hour passed" energy.

Honestly, it’s not deep, but if you’re into chill sims or just want something that feels like a warm hug, this one’s weirdly hard to put down. The pixel art is adorable, and there’s something weirdly fun about watching Hello Kitty ride a scooter past a bakery shaped like a cupcake.
