    As with most first party Nintendo releases, they hit it out of the park! Anybody who is a fan of the previous games, you won't be disappointed. Anybody who is coming in new, this is a very simple game to pick up that you will ultimately lose hundreds of hours to playing. The game premise is simple: build up a small society on a deserted island by mining resources, selling items, building infrastructure and item crafting. Fun seasonal events occur in real time, and the laid back nature of the game provides a stress free playing environment. If you own a Switch, you should own Animal Crossing!

    While the Animal Crossing Series is definitely geared towards a younger audience, I (20 year old, male, college student) have really enjoyed this game as it is a great way to de-stress, relax, and have the gratification of seeing the development of your virtual island. PROS: Much better graphics than previous games in the series. Interact with friends with both a Nintendo Switch and the game. A needed much needed relaxation from these stressful times. CONS: Online mode can be slow, tedious, and sometimes frustrating. Player needs to work hard to stay engaged with the game.

    This is hands down one of the most charming and relaxing games I’ve ever played. From the moment you arrive on your deserted island, the world feels like a peaceful escape. The graphics are adorable, the music is soothing, and the attention to detail in everything—from seasons to character interactions—is incredible.

    Ever wanted to run your own island? Ever wish you had talking animals as neighbors? Well, one of those is a little less realistic and I'm not sure which. But hey you weirdo, with this game your dreams come true! Catch sharks and tarantulas and sell them for sweet sweet bells, or give them to your neighbors to creepily collect as pets. The world is your oyster! This game is seriously cute. There's no real right or wrong way to play. But it is rewarding seeing your hardwork come together as your friends visit and admire your beautiful flowers and try to steal your favorite neighbors.

    This game is definitely worth all the hype it's getting. It's entertaining, and definitely exceeded all my expectations. At first, I thought that it would be really simple and basic, but I got really into it. There's daily goals that you need to do, which keep you busy, but the reward is definitely worth it. I really enjoy how each villager that moves in is completely random (at least if you don't cheat), the only thing that bothers be is that I'm constantly in debt but that's the price of me having a great house! Overall, I highly recommend this game, it's so adorable and wholesome.

    Has anyone seen my fiancee?

    Purchased this for my fiancee, as she was playing some silly dragon game on her phone during stay-at-home, and this seemed to have more substance. This has occupied an equal amount of her time, which is to say all of it. She's got a really great garden and orchard going, which is nice. She's also made some pretty outfits. I like the viking helmet that she shook loose from one of the trees I mentioned earlier. She managed to catch three Oarfish, which from her excitement, seems like a pretty big deal. There's also a pen with 5 turtles next to her house, and I suggested she build them a pool.

    The Best Animal Crossing Yet!

    New, fresh, and the most customizable Animal Crossing game ever released! Nearly everything about this game improves upon the previous games from quality of life improvements like bigger inventory and storage to customization like adding your own designs to nearly everything and changing the actual landscape however you see fit! Not many flaws except that many tools break WAY to often and people playing on the same switch are forced to live in the same town regardless of separate profiles. All in all, this is truly the best entry in the Animal Crossing series of games! Would highly reccomened!

    This is a great game that my son loves to play and it is also a game that adults can play as well. It allows my son during the pandemic to play with his friends on line in a game where you create your own section of the world and they can come and visit the area that you have built in the game. This is a game that I can also go in and play with my son with and at the same time check on my son at the same time. Also I like how this game does not have violence all throughout the game. A must for kids and adults alike.

    Best Animal Crossing game yet! Unlike previous games in the series, you can now terraform your island! Can also place items outside of your house. Easily lose hundreds of hours designing the island you want. Lots of designs online you can download via codes, for custom paths, clothes, etc. The only downside of this game is that every user on your Switch is on the same island. Meaning you have to share your island. Sometimes that other user might accidently change your look of an area or kick out your favorite villager, etc. Really odd choice for them to make it one island per Switch console. Online play is optional & is very clunky. You have to enter a code to enter a friend's island, there's lots of loading hiding behind the fly over animation/cutscenes, where it takes like 30 seconds to 5 minutes before you can actually move around on their island. Meanwhile your friend & everyone else already on the island is interrupted & also have to wait. It gets really annoying when multiple people visit during the same session. Lots of waiting as each player loads.
