    A lighthearted romp through a gorgeous world. This title will be instantly familiar to fans of the series, and an easy pick up for anyone not so familiar. If you’re into titles like Stardew Valley this game is a no brainer to pick up. Truly a work of art that will continue to provide hours of fun! I’ve had Animal Crossing for about a week and a half now and have been unable to put it down in that time.

    If you like farming or collection games, this is a great game for you. There's always something to do. I only have two complaints. One is that you can only have one island per console period, and if you start on one console and then decide you want your own Switch and buy another console and another copy of the game, you cannot move your island to the new console. Also only the first person to log in has full control so if you let a child or other household member start the island and then they stop playing, you're locked out of several features unless you delete and start over. Also it's annoying that the time in-game is always locked to the time in real life, so if you only ever play at night then all you'll ever see in game is night. But other than those things, it's a great game and a worthy addition to the series.

    I'm having a blast! I have heard if you're sharing your island on a console with other players you can be extremely restricted, which is a bummer. Since I didn't want to share with my husband I dished out the money to get a second console. I can't tell you my perspective on sharing one, but I can say I love all the new features and customization options in New Horizons. For me it's been worth every penny!

    Really fun game! A little text heavy so you need to understand what they’re asking for, but even my nephews who are very very little got the hang of it quite fast and I just helped them on the parts they couldn’t understand or had to read (they’re not in preschool yet). But it’s a great game and it’s very educational when it comes to plants, dinosaurs, and insects.

    Fun...played it for several months straight. It eventually turned into a bit of a grind but every game will feel that way eventually. Now I come back periodically for events. It's definitely a game worth having, even if you only play it on trips or in the bathroom. A fun, pretty, and simply game that often times feels more like therapy than a game. Just temper your expectations

    During this madness happening in our world, I was scared that Best Buy would be closed, preventing me from getting my blessed Animal Crossing: New Horizons game. Thankfully, they followed the CDC guidelines and only allowed 10 people in the store at a time. I was so pleased with employees at the Hixson, TN Best Buy! Definitely returning for future electronic / game purchases. Goodbye Amazon and GameStop!

    I bought this game to play with my partner, and it has exceeded both our expectations. The returning characters, systems, and themes from previous entries elicit nostalgia, and the new gameplay elements add levels of complexity and freedom that are much appreciated.

    So much fun --- but YOU CAN ONLY NAME YOUR ISLAND ONCE! So once you choose that name there is no going back. When we got the game we were under the impression that each new game would be its own island etc etc but that is not the case. The one island will be cohabited by everyone that plays the same game on the same console. Its different but a lot of fun!

    Animal Crossing is a fun and relaxing game. My child enjoys it. Its nice to see the seasons and weather change. Its a realtime type of game and never ending. You can build your own island and enjoy yourself online with others and enjoy there island as well. Its played just about everyday. It can be played before school and after for a relaxing feel after a long day.

    This game is so charming. It's hard for me to really explain properly an Animal Crossing game to someone who is unfamiliar with the series but for me this is a lovely little escape to a virtual island paradise where I can fish, catch bugs, make friends, and build up an island that I want to live on. Plus Nintendo has been pushing out regular monthly updates that have added new stuff to do!!
