Customer Ratings & Reviews

I purchased this game about 3 weeks ago and it is a joy to play it. COVID-19 has left us all sheltering in place, and this game has been a bright spot when the news every day is daunting. It's not stressful, the characters are adorable, and even my husband plays on his own island. I'm very happy with this purchase and now plan to purchase the earlier versions of this series. Highly recommended.

This game is like a slowed sims type game but with animals. Like it so far!

Can’t leave your house? Practicing social distancing? This game is the best, you’re on a tropical island, you can grow plants and catch bugs and talk to your friends on other islands! I’ve been in the house but this game makes me feel like i’m on vacation. there’s always something new every time i open the game. it’s the perfect pastime while we all get through this indoors. I recommend it 10/10

My daughter loves em this game in which she plays frequently

Amazing installment in the Animal Crossing series by Nintendo. I started this game on New Years Eve and already have over 50 hours into it. Have loved every second. Will easily play for hundreds of hours more while I tweak, tune & customize my town! Such a laid back and move at your own pace game. Very relaxing to play after a long day at work. Highly recommend!

It’s so addicting! It’s amazing how they managed to cram so much to do on an island. I’m used to games where there are dungeons and other areas to open up. Stardew Valley was one, but this game keeps you coming back. They add in content that pertains to real life events going on in real time which is awesome. Fish, bugs, birthdays and just recently we received a swimming update! Awesome!

Animal crossing is such a fun game to play. I would recommend it to others.

Good game for relaxing. Its not a game for everyone but its fun nonetheless.

I have always been a fan of the Animal Crossing games. I was super excited when this came out! I have spent HOURS playing! You can customize your whole island, your home, and everything! Its a fun game that everyone can play. There is a SMALL story line, pretty much non-existing. Its a fun time killer and very family friendly. A must if you don't want to get into a game with a long story line!

I’ve never played Animal Crossing before, but so many of my friends love it, so I had to get a copy. It’s such a cute game, so much fun, and it’s taking my mind off everything going on in the world these days. I have a cute little village I can just live in, and I get to visit my friends in-game and hang out with them. If you want a game where you can chill with no obligations, pick this one up.

Bought this for my step daughter For her bday and so far she really likes the game.

Awesome game. Relaxing, colorful and fun. My kid loves it.

This is such a fun game! It's a great way to relax, and it's so cute. I am so attached to my little island. My villagers (I believe they are called island residents) in this game are all so cute! My favorite feature of this game is the terraforming, where I can completely customize my island. If you enjoy building in Sims 4, it will probably be your favorite feature too.

If you're a creative player this is the game fore you. Its a grindy game that lets you grind at a satisfying pace to pay off your loans and buy items to upgrade your island. I want to say the point of the game is to make your island cool and pretty to show your friends. If you dont have any friends to invite over i would say dont get the game, because friends is what makes this game fun!

I bought this for my sister as a gift when she bought her Nintendo Switch. She absolutely loves this game! If you have a Nintendo account, you can also play with your friends :) Super easy to play and never gets boring. Animal Crossing arrived two days later than the Nintendo although we ordered both of them at the same time. But I didn't deduct any stars, because it was SOO worth the wait.

I have been looking forward to this game since New Leaf. It is great to play Animal Crossing on the Switch because I am able to connect to a TV and use my Nintendo Pro Controller. It makes gameplay easier and more immersive. I have only been playing for a few days, but I have already visited friends' islands and random islands as well. This game is suitable for children and adults of all ages.

I clocked over 300 hours in the first few months of getting this game- I love the aesthetic and customization that is possible with this version of AC. I did take a break for a while but the seasonal changes and events always draw me back in. Great value if you like designing and collecting things, definitely not an intense game so some may find it too slow after a while.

If you are a long time fan of the series you won’t be disappointed, but you won’t be amazed. It is more of the same “animal crossing formula,” but that is not necessarily a point I would hold against it. Animal crossing is always an adorable game that draws you in to the charming atmosphere and lovable characters. If you enjoy it you will inevitably donate many hours to grow your town, recruit more neighbors, and build friendships with everyone. Over the last year it has shown that Nintendo has not steadily updated the game with many events that make me want to come back to play that often. There are new updates coming soon, but may not be completing for some. The biggest drawbacks of this game are the online functionality, which barely works, and is extremely frustrating when traveling from town to town. Trying to move your saved data to another switch (if you decide to upgrade your switch) is non existent. Nintendo has never been user friendly with any online services within games and this does not break that mold. If you are looking for another animal crossing experience you won’t be disappointed if you can overlook the online issues that cause frustration.

In a time when there’s not much to do, it’s nice to immerse oneself into a fictional, animal-filled world. This game is filled to the brim with collections to keep one busy for days, months, years, a lifetime. The successes of this game feel monumental in a rather dormant time of life. With bright colors and a wide array of characters, Animal Crossing: New Horizons is the new life for you.

This game is ridiculously cute and fun. Definitely a great way to pass the time and bring smiles to your face, no matter what age. Since I was recently able to get my hands on a Switch, this was the first game in my sights and it is TOO MUCH FUN. If you haven't purchased this yet, do yourself a favor and get it know and enjoy what the whole world enjoys. Crossover now!!!
