    Depends on your ranch. Small ranch, lots of time; big ranch, you're running back and forth. Your pick.

    I'm aiming at a casual, relaxed animal crossing style gameplay. I hope you can interact with neighbors.

    I'm gonna use 3 files. One with a small relaxing ranch, one with a big frenzy, and one somewhere inbetween, and see which one best suits me

    I just hope Apple's review team passes the app soon, I've been waiting since October. It's only Tuesday of "the week of the 21st", but it makes me wanna play even more xD

    I think I read somewhere that everyone who buys AR at the introductory sale gets a free statue...?

    Correct! Paul has revealed that the first 50,000 buyers get a free in game statue. I believe this is a statue of the Mayor? I've been wondering is the statue a small one to put in your house or a large one to place in a garden to help decorate the ranch?

    Yes. I am also looking forward to getting the statue. How will we know if we get the version with the statue? Or will it be a free DLC and once 50,000 people download it, it will no longer show up on the in-app purchase list?

    @SSquared - I'm not sure how it's going to work, but if you purchase and play game soon after release I'm sure it'll be fine.

    In the hands-on preview video, there's a golden statue of the mayor outside the ranch near the shop. Perhaps that's the statue? Or is that a different one...

    Well spotted. I must confess that I have no idea if that's the statue or not.
