    After having played I changed my mind. Love playing this game! This game is really incredible and me and my wife are playing together. I wish I could play an island of my own, but there’s enough space for the both of us. Just make sure the person to play the most is the main character, and you’re good!

    Great fun game. This is my first time playing the Animal Crossing franchise. All the villagers are super cute, and there's plenty to keep you busy even after finishing the "story" mode. This is all about relaxing and drifting off to a fun land that you get to create all your own.

    I’ve been really excited for this game to come out and anyone who is a fan of this game will really enjoy it. If you have never played this game it’s a relaxing game that plays in real time so your not achieving everything in one day. Highly recommend if you have never played this game. Now is the time to get into it!

    Just buy it. Endless relaxing fun, especially during a time like now. I've played all of the Animal Crossing games and the graphics on this and the new features are impressive. I love it. Nintendo has done a beautiful job at modernizing a game to keep up with the times, but still holding the classic values and feel.

    This game is excellent. During quarantine, I have played it non-stop! I love being able to escape the real world in this sandbox game and be as creative as I possibly can with it. The only thing that may be a down-side for some is the fact that so many features are hidden behind the Switch Online paywall. Although it is not necessary to purchase, and I played without the membership for about two weeks, I did end up purchasing the membership in order to play with a friend in another state. I think that it was worth it, but wish that it was not as necessary as I feel it is.

    Digitally bought this for my son on his switch and noticed my daughter enjoying it as well. I bought her a physical copy of it for her switch. After they go to bed I sneak off with my switch and play it! Great game, kids have actually learned a lot about different marine life and bugs!

    Its an great game,but my Granddaughter took it over and I had ro start putting restrictions on the timing of her play. I love this game for my Granddaughter, she is learning about earning her money , buying items and selling items to earn money to improve her property. Its another fun form of monopoly

    This is a cute fun addicting game. I like it for the fact that I could just turn it on and zone out from my stressful day with this and my music. I don’t get stressed out playing it or trying to beat the clock. It’s a nice way to relax. I recommend it for anyone who wants to kill time.

    Everyone knows this by now, but this game is just so high quality in graphics and content. As a huge fan of the Animal Crossing series from the beginning, I think this might be their best game yet. Definitely get your hands on it (but only if you’re ready to spend a lot of hours accidentally glued to the screen!)

    Cuteness overloard with a dash of time gating

    After all the raving I had to give Animal Crossing on Switch a try. I can safely say I've had fun with my time in the game so far, but the time gating mechanics are a little disappointing. Having to wait an entire day for major plot points to pass sucks a bit, and it feels at times like things to do are a bit sparse until you get to that next point, but the charm never seems to let up. Please keep in mind it's a very simple game, so if you get bored quickly you might want to look elsewhere for your entertainment. If you're looking for something a bit more complex and fast place along the same vein, i'd highly recommend Forager.

    This is a fun game for the whole family, especially during everyone is quarantined with the COVID pandemic. It's a nice to escape to an island with a sea to swim. Friendly enough for kids to play, yet complex enough for adults to enjoy. Online play with friends requires Nintendo Switch online membership.

    I don't normally play these types of games and had never played Animal Crossing before, but this is a lot of fun. The game is full of charm and even simple things are entertaining in it. I wish there was some more quality of life improvements (e.g. crafting), but all in all it is a great time that anyone can enjoy.

    I have never played Animal Crossing before but my friends have always raved about it. I got it the day it was released and so far it has been a blast. It reminds me of the Sims game. It's a game where you don't have to think too much. Slow paced but not boring. You do things at your own time. It's an enjoyable game!

    After a coworker gave Animal Crossing New Horizons a glowing review, I bought it for myself. I'd never played any AC games before, and was not disappointed. A nice, relaxing game for when I'm looking for a less intense game. But, there is still so much to do in the game that I rarely ever get bored with it.

    Animal Crossing is such a chill and relaxing game. Yet I still find myself feeling somewhat competitive in wanting to expand/grow my character's surroundings as compared to my family. There's loads of stuff to unlock, new objects, new features, so there's always that feeling of discovery as you continue to play.

    A fun game that's easy to pick up and hard to put down. After you finish the intro you can save at any time, which I like. It's cute and doesn't just appeal to kids - I know plenty of adults who play and love this game as well, just like myself. It's relaxing and very enjoyable to pass the time while in quarantine.
