Animal Crossing: New Horizons has taken over the world of self-isolation and become a virtual place of normalcy, even for non-gamers.

But what if you’re single and dating and can’t leave the house due to lockdowns? Tom Nook, in his infinite wisdom, has a solution for that.

This week on 2 GIRLS 1 PODCAST, Alli and Jen talk with Lady Brittany, a Twitch streamer who has converted her entire Animal Crossing domain into a love island, optimized for romance and photo ops around every corner.

There, she hosts real dates and even wedding ceremonies, which can’t take place in real life due to the coronavirus. And while she typically live-streams her island activities, she also takes the privacy of visiting couples very seriously.

Brittany shares the inspiration for her mermaid-themed getaway, the special events she holds for her community, and why Animal Crossing is such a special and important game—especially now.
