If you live in Europe, the last few days have likely been unbearably hot for you. Soaring, record-breaking temperatures have hit parts of the continent, and many other parts of the northern hemisphere are also experiencing high temperatures. We're stacking up fans and freezing bottles of water here at Nintendo Life Towers — it's too darn hot!
But trust the lovely Isabelle — our assistant mayor in Animal Crossing: New Leaf, and employee at the Resident Services building (and island announcer) in Animal Crossing: New Horizons - to be looking out for us. The official Animal Crossing Twitter — which is absolutely, definitely ran by the buttercup-coloured pup — shared some vital advice for us island dwellers.
Tom Nook and his nephews Timmy and Tommy look like they're living their best lives in that illustration, don't they? It's way too hot to go to the beach right now, but just the idea of being there with a cold beverage in hand, or an ice lolly — we're checking the temperatures to make sure it's a bit more comfortable after we leave work!
We hope you're keeping safe and cool wherever you are. Perhaps you're staying inside playing Animal Crossing: New Horizons. We're jealous! If only Kapp'n were real... we could go on a nice evening sail to an island.

You can't tell me what to do, you filthy mutt! I'll dehydrate if I wanna dehydrate!
**dies of heatstroke**
should have been the best Animal Crossing game in the series and its just nothing more that an OK game
drinks large cup of water to please the nintendo overlords
After almost getting sick from heat exhaustion last Friday, as a result of doing too much yard work for a neighbor of mine, I'll do that. And since it's a heatwave this week, I'm keeping my Build-A-Bear Isabelle nude, because I don't want to ruin her clothes with my sweat.
@TheMelodiusRose Don't imply it to be a gross innuendo, because that is ina-pro-pro!
Precious pup-pup transcending the boundaries of fiction just to tell us to take care of ourselves. How in-character.
@TheMelodiusRose Eh, fair point; anyone that chummy with Doom Slayer has some hidden darker side.
At least she's looking out for us. Tom Nook would just charge us "festival" prices for bottled water.
"Eew! Dog water!"
It's not much better in the US east coast right now, but at least we have air conditioning. I'm worried for the folks in the EU!
Thanks for the reminder, it turns out I had forgotten to drink any water since I stopped playing animal crossing a year ago.
The heat hit Bremen yesterday. Our poor plants in the green house don't like this weather. We had to put a blanket on the roof. I hope they are okay now. The fan of my Switch is a lot louder than usual, so I will take a break from gaming for a few days.
Still I think the weather is nice.
Thanks, Isabelle. Don't worry, I'm staying hydrated and try to avoid going out during the hottest hours.
@CharlieGirl I had to buy a small air conditioning unit a few years ago, it’s one of those units where you have to have a pipe which needs to go through a window, only because I used to work nights and in the summer the heat that would penetrate through my blackout curtains would make me sick waking up from a night shift, I would wake up delirious and feeling exhausted, least to say that penguin air conditioning unit has been a life saver for me these last few days with the heat we have had in the UK, I have been to Thailand and Turkey in their summer and the heat we had here must have been hotter than that.
Thanks for the advise Isabelle! I will drink plenty of water!
I always enjoy watching people freak out because of heat. Europe definitely is the most fun to read about.
