    Addicting game with some UX issues

    Honestly, I am writing this review for the 25 My Best Buy points. I figured the least I could do is punch out a few words on the ol' keyboard for my reward. AC:NH is an addicting game of repetitive tasks and customizing your island. After a couple of weeks of play, I do not think it stands out in any particular way in comparison to other "builder" games. It had the benefit of timing. While many people are under quarantine due to COVID-19, it became something wildly popular to pass the time. The game is solid for what it set out to do. The biggest problems are repetitive conversations with characters, such as talking to Blathers, the Museum curator. Donating fossils and other critters should not require going through a long conversation each time, continually hitting the B button to speed through it. It should be simplified. Much of the game suffers from this same UX issue. I would give it a solid 3 stars. But, thus far, it has been addicting enough to garner an extra star.

    This is definitely aimed at a younger audience, and my kids love this game. I must admit, I’m liking it quite a bit too! There’s a slight learning curve, as the game doesn’t give you too much info out the gate, but it’s not complicated and worn take long to get the hang of it. There’s so much to do, explore, and see. The local multiplayer could be a little better, but for what it is, it works just fine (just have to get used to taking turns as the “leader”).

    Animal Crossing is the kind of game that you can pick up and play anytime you want. It's the kind of game that you can dive into, play for a few minutes, or even for a few hours if you want to. A great game to play with friends whether locally or online, and with the promise of more content on the way, it's overall a great, relaxing, chill game to just explore through and have some fun with. Definitely better than the one that came on the Wii U.

    A lot of fun, great game for all ages (kids to adults). Allows everyone to explore their creativity. We have family across states and countries who also have copies of this game, used the virtual world to have a family get together. Even took a family photo in the game. A really relevant game for the current times we are in. For anyone who enjoys a slower paced game focused on building community, structures, completing tasks, etc. This is a great value

    On the surface, this is a very casual, simple game: care for a private island, make animal friends, and decorate to your heart’s content. However, the sheer volume of content combined with the slow-paced, relaxing tone of the game makes this entertaining for a very long time, and people who dig into the secrets and advanced mechanics will find more on offer. The game is absolutely better with friends, but can be enjoyed fully as a single-player experience.

    Animal Crossing: New Horizons is so fun! I have only played Animal Crossing on Gameube as a kid, and kept putting off buying this title after I bought my switch. However, my partner and I started playing and we love this game! This game is a Switch console seller. If you are planning on playing this game with your partner, more on that below... Three things... One: Please be aware that you can only have ONE island per Switch console. Two: Only the Switch profile that created the island can make decisions for that island. A second player playing on a different profile cannot build any buildings on the island or further the "storyline" of the island. Three: My partner officially claimed our household Switch, and I found myself without a console and bought a new one to create my own island. Now.... you can share a single profile, but if you're looking for analytics for how long you yourself have played the game. And you want to have your own island. (Like myself) Then sharing a profile won't be for you.

    This is the long awaited entry in the Animal Crossing series. If you are familiar with the games, the additions and crafting will be a refreshment to game play. This game is simple to start and hard to put down. New players will have a wonderful time learning how to become friends with their new animal neighbors and the rest and relaxation of fishing and hunting bugs(among other activities). Definitely pick this up if you have a Switch!

    Decided to revisit Animal Crossing: New Horizons on the Switch 2 and hey… it’s still such a vibe. Even after all this time, it feels fresh and relaxing. If you’ve been thinking of jumping back in, or visiting first time, do it. Totally worth it.

    A Great Addition to the Series

    Animal Crossing is a great game that came out at the perfect time - amidst the COVID-19 pandemic. A cute, classic series that I played with my sister and friends growing up and hold many great memories with. For both new fans of the series and old, New Horizons is a great addition to the Animal Crossing series that retains the cute playfulness of the series as well as many objectives, goals, creative outlets and more. Plus, there's the option to connect with your friends and family - something integral for many at the beginning of the pandemic, and still equally important today. It's a nice break from the world and an escape off into your own, living peaceful island full of plenty of friends, old and new.

    It's a beautiful and relaxing game you can play for hours on end. The devs appear to be slowly adding a bunch more content and patches with each major real life event such as holidays or seasons. Given that this game is meant to be played in real time, all players can experience certain things at the same time which is kinda neat. Yeah it has some clunky mechanics and UI but I think the pros heavily out weigh the cons.

    This is a game that you can lose yourself in for hours. Very tranquil and relaxing, but provides enough challenge to keep you interested. Fair warning, this starts off very slow at first, but picks up steam after the first week or so. True to the original with lots of the same elements, just better and much more visually appealing. Any Animal Crossing fan over the years is going to love this game. Highly recommended!

    I love playing and my daughter is happy to have something we can play together! Having played on someone else’s system, it’s nice to have an island of my own. Lots of time can be wasted playing but at least you’ll be having fun! I recommend this for anyone who needs a get away/escape from the real world for a little bit & likes to play at life.
