Customer Ratings & Reviews

My mother in law retired recently. (Right at the beginning of the pandemic) I'd been talking to her about finding other hobbies aside from puzzles and let me tell you she is in her mid 60s and has been playing and enjoying this game along with a 2 other seniors for years now. Don't ben intimidated by the game. It takes time but when you learn it, you will have a blast. No win or lose in this game, just relax, build a house, catch fish, collect, help other villagers, become an interior decorator, visit a museum, chop wood, mine iron, craft with your resources, cook, etc. You just have to get it in your hands to understand why this game is fantastic.

My kids love this game. Overall I would rate this a five star hit with the kids; however I have to mark it down to a 4 star (possibly 3?) because of the limits the game has with playing multiplayer on the same console. There can only be one main player on an island, in which only that player can begin/complete the different objectives. Thus, time sharing a console with multiple kids has proven to be difficult to accomplishing objectives. Additionally, in multiplayer mode, the 2nd/3rd/4th player(s) is/are stuck in a follower mode scenario and not able to access their own collection(s) or do anything aside from what the 1st player wants to do. Very different from the multiplier games I grew up with. Ultimately, the sharing factor became more and more difficult to the point in which I was tempted to either take the game away, or do what the creators likely want consumers to do and purchase an additional console(s) (Nintendo Lite) and additional game(s). Having 4 kids and also being a bit of a softy; I now own 4 Nintendo Switches and 4 of the same game (which apparently has some added benefits as far as the objective of the game goes; as well as their ability to play together via WiFi). Ultimately I am the one who gave in and made the additional purchases, but this came was the root cause. So a win or lose strategy by Nintendo and the game developers got the best of me.

This game was truly made with love and care for the series and fandom. There are some quality of life updates that are needed but the game is fun, relaxing, and addicting. It also has received support from Nintendo in the form of post launch free content.

It is easy to relax and just have some fun, not matter what age you are.

Nintendo has once again given us a wonderful Animal Crossing game. For people new to the series, this game entails fishing, catching bugs, building wardrobes and other Do It Yourself items and is a very relaxing game to play. Just watch out for the spiders.

A super great pass time! I didn’t think I would be too into it at first but it’s such a cozy game that really sucks you into it.

My girlfriend loves animal crossing and I got this for her not knowing how much the game has advanced since new leaf, this is the ultimate Animal Crossing game to get, you can do everything that hasn’t been done in animal crossing before, it’s extremely appealing and the soundtrack is amazing as always, definitely recommend if you’re looking to spend long hours playing

I have put in over 100 hours and they keep releasing more and more content this summer. Very fun to play with your kids where they can fish, swim, catch bugs, and buy clothes/furniture. There is always a lot of things to do. Highly recommended.

This game is really fun with all the things you can do. You get to create an island any way you want. The house, trees, plants, crafts, and other decorations. The more things you do and places you explore the more stuff pops up. Really a fun game.

I love this game! I’m still playing it even though I have finished the storyline already. There are many bugs, fish, fossil, and painting to collect. You can make the island how you want and invite friends to the island. I’m obsessed with this game!

I received the game on time & in great condition. No issues whatsoever. This is actually the first game I bought for my new Switch & I love how smooth it is. It’s very fun & engaging. I literally lose hours just messing around on my island, trying to build a perfect home! I also love the multiplayer aspect. It’s fun to hangout with friends in their island or mine. Anyways, if you’re planning to get the game, I highly recommend doing it through here. I had a smooth experience.

Shipped just in time. Haven’t put this game down since. Please note that their is only ONE island per Switch console. Anyone who isn’t the first player, will have to take a seat to all the jobs you’re given. Like choosing animal house locations, and etc.

This game is great all around! And good for all ages! If you’ve been an Animal Crossing fan from the beginning you’ll see old elements mixed with some new. If you’re too to Animal Crossing you’ll pick it up quick and fall in love easily! 10/10 recommend!

Amazing game! Great little comfort game! Love the characters!

This is the first console version of Animal Cross we have bought, and it has been spectacular. The ability to switch between console and mobile play makes playing this a non-stop endeavor... there is so much to see and do, new things to create and explore. It feeds new goals and updates at an even pace and even introduces limits to logically stop playing when appropriate, because you can total obsess. The whole family loves playing and each has their own section of the island to maintain and design. If you own a Switch, you should own this guilty pleasure... it may look 'cartoony' but the depth and detail is anything but. Strategy, planning, budgeting, it all comes into play for kids to learn... even the concept exchange using turnips. For adults its a fun getaway though... give everything its own look and feel, and make it reflect who and what you are.

This is by far my favorite game in the whole Animal Crossing series. The graphics in this great are so good compared to the most recent release and the story components are great. It does suck that you can't have more than 1 island per console though.

Animal crossing new horizons brings to the table a very peaceful and creative experience. Players will spend hours upon hours recreating their island to just their liking and there is an unlimited amount of options players can decorate and create.

Amazing game! The crafting aspect adds a nice addition to the Animal Crossing franchise, and isn't that hard to use. Whether your a newcomer or a veteran of this game, you'll love it. Your first day is a little slow, but it gets better as time goes on.

I have loved the animal crossing series for a long time now and this game does not disappoint! it's a little slow during the first few days but it's super addicting and fun. The game is heavily creative based if you're into that then this is a must!

I would recommend this to anyone looking for a fun and easy game to get into. There is enough depth to keep island creators interested, but the mechanics are easy enough for almost anyone to play. You can basically be as creative and free as you want.
