The new mobile game "Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp" has only been released for a week, but it has gotten a lot of rave from fans of the franchise and new players alike. However, the game has also experienced some server issues just days after its initial launch. To make up for the less than ideal gaming experience, Nintendo is giving away a free gift for its players.

The company is granting "Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp" players free 20 Leaf Tickets while it continues to resolve issues with the mobile game. Leaf Tickets are the new in-game currency introduced by Nintendo in "Pocket Camp." Normally, Leaf Tickets can be purchased with real money.

Nintendo also addressed the server issues and promised its players that it will fix the problems in no time. "The issue is still occurring intermittently, but please be aware that we are investigating it and will resolve it as soon as possible. Thank you to those users who have contacted us or left feedback regarding this issue," said Nintendo.

Players can claim the free Leaf Tickets once they log on within a month. Hopefully, by then, all the server issues have been repaired and all players have been able to log into their campsites.

Servers for "Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp" were intermittently going down as early as its launch date. This could be attributed to congestions in the network due to the number of players trying to get in the game. While issues cannot be avoided especially in brand new games such as this, the popularity of Nintendo's "Animal Crossing" franchise and the anticipation for the game probably made the congestion worse.

"Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp" is the first mobile game from the franchise, and will largely feature the same gameplay as its iterations on Nintendo consoles. However, in the mobile game, players are tasked to manage and oversee a campsite instead of a town.
