    Bought this for my 7yr old(1st grade). Reading is required for this game and she can comprehend almost all the interactions. Does need some assistance with larger words and scenarios. She’s had a lot of fun with this game and so have I. We’re on the same island together and we can send each other presents and play at the same time which is fun. It’s not great when it comes to coop but it’s sufficient for a short period of time. She also loves the creative process of building and designing her home. Only regret is that I purchased the physical copy instead of digital. I just wasn’t sure how much she’d like it and liked the idea of being able to resell if she didn’t.

    I got a Switch and Animal Crossings in hopes that I could bridge the gap for my non-gamer girlfriend’s birthday. She is hooked! Perfect game because you can legit pick it up for a little play session and put it down into sleep mode for later. I guess some people don’t think you can be into video games casually. You can, and the Switch proved this for her. Plus now I get to game The Witcher 3 in bed at night with no complaints haha. ACNH is a fun game that can be played for short sessions but also watch out it can totally hook you in for an hour and a half sometimes. I prefer more action in my games but if it’s your thing the game is really polished.

    Best. Game. Ever. A game for all ages! Great to help Littles learn to read and follow directions too! I started playing over 13 years ago when our oldest Grands were 3 & 5 yrs old. We bought Wii systems for them and us and AC City Folks with that speaker thingy (only bought the game because of the ability to talk via the speaker and fell in love with the game!) Now they are 16 & 18 and playing ACNH with Nana and Papa (52 & 67), our youngest daughter (age 30) and her two boys (6 & 11) and our son (age 32).

    I haven't played Animal Crossing since Wild World on the ds, but figured it would be a perfect game for quarantining and boy was I right! It's amazing, relaxing, and almost like a job at times. It takes away from the boredom of being stuck home and doesn't stress you out or make you be on your toes at all times like other games. The only thing I really dislike is that there is no cloud save and it can't be transferred to another console.. I started it on my daughters console and soon found out that I couldn't transfer everything over to mine. Very sad about that, but it's not enough to take away from the enjoyment of this wonderful game! Highly Recommended!!

    I bought this game for my friend and had the code sent to her email. overall it was a very easy process and she LOVES the game! my wife and I each have our own games and we would all sit down together (my wife and I next to each other and our friend on facetime) and play this game and visit each other's or just laugh together while we build our own islands up. it is just an adorable game, the characters are the cutest, it’s beautiful and vibrant, there’s a ton to do and you can customize your island which is a cool feature for a game! overall, definitely a great purchase and one I do not regret at all :)

    In no way did I think I was going to get into this game. Friends had asked of I was going get it. Said it looked stupid. So flash forward to heading to Texas for 4th of July weekend. We go to the Bestbuy in College Station and my mom buys me this as a birthday present. She had heard her friends children liked it. I had to be nice and pop it in and play it. Within 15 minutes I was lost in this world. When no working or doing other adult things I find myself trying to catch that darn marlin. So take it from me. Someone who thought there was no way I was going dig this game. To waiting until 9pm to catch a scorpion. You will enjoy it.

    My 16 year old daughter wanted a Nintendo Switch - Lite so she could play this game. Of course it is a matter of luck being able to find the Switch -Lite or the game, but I got lucky and found it here on bestbuy.com. Once I ordered both the Switch - Lite and the Animal Crossing game, it was delivered in a few days. That is faster than if I chose to pick it up at the store. Daughter says the game is fun, and seems to be a very popular game. She used to play it on our Wii, and I think she had it on her DS also. I have seen her play it a few times, but it's definitely not my cup of tea. It looks cute, and the game has a cult-like following.

    ACNH isn't the type of game you power through, as you have to play through each day in real time. You can spend most of the time progressing through the game just waiting for things to happen, but at the very least, it makes justifying putting the game down much easier. For this, I'm really happy. However, on the other side of the same coin, it's easy to fall in the trap of feeling like you need to play every day, so if you have an addictive or obsessive personality like myself, or you're a completionist, you're going to feel like missing a day is wasted time. All in all, I love it for being a cute and relaxing game, even with it's faults.

    The only drawback to this game is the amount of time you'll want to spend playing. I'm a new Animal Crossing player, but it was very easy to jump into and it's just mindless fun.

    Excellent all around. Starts out a little slower than others in the series, but once you get into the swing of things it gives you so much more freedom. Charming, beautiful and fun.
