    Though you can't go outside, you can still see your friends with this game in real time. It gives you incentive to get up early and go to bed early/keep a routine, and keeps the mind busy. The graphics are beautiful, and left me stunned compared to the last installment in the series (including New Leaf and Pocket Camp). There is a lot of potential for the game. - Lots of items for customizing your islander - Tons of Islanders to befriend and invite to live on your island - Island is almost entirely changeable with the design tools Cons: - Only one person can follow the main plotline as island representative, similar to having a mayor role in New Leaf - Only one island per switch - Dialogue options are repetitive to navigate - Price (Feels like I got what I paid for, however)

    If you like this sort of game, this game can take hours away without realizing it. My husband played it, but after a couple of weeks since it was so much of the same thing over and over again he stopped. I still love to play because sometime I need something familiar and easy that I can check out to. If you like any of the previous animal crossing games I would recommend it.

    I bought the game for my wife, she loves the animal crossing series. I sprout buds of joy like a couch potato would while watching my wife build her island! I do enjoy seeing the realistic drawings of bugs caught in the journal, online play is nice too. Overall great game to play for hours while we are all stuck in the house during this quarantine. Be safe fellow gamers and get this game!

    I'd never played any of the previous Animal Crossing games, but this one seemed like fun, so I gave it a shot. I was completely shocked by how much I loved it. It is not a typical adventure game, but more of a life simulator, but life in the cutest way imaginable. There is so much to do in the game and the free updates from Nintendo have been great. Highly recommended!

    It has constant improvements and several updates adding new things. Also love the fact you can visit other peoples islands and see what they have accomplished or found. Has definitely helped with keeping in touch with family and has really been helping us get through this lock down virus time. Nephew, niece, sisters, mom, daughter and son in law we all enjoy playing this game.

    I've loved animal crossing for years so obviously I was gonna love it unless it went out of it's way to disrespect everything about the previous games and suck, but no it's actually the best of the series, everything from the dialogue to the day to day gameplay, to the atmosphere, they've nailed again and I'd highly recommend it to anyone especially now that we're all kinda stuck inside

    The game is very relaxing you can do as much or as little as you would like depending on your time. Nothing is missable, per say some events are tied to holidays, but you can always time travel in case you miss any holidays. The game does an excellent job catering to casual players.

    What can I say - it’s Animal Crossing. I love these games. I played the first one on a DS with my son years ago and was so excited to see this new one come out. I bought the Switch Lite just to play this game. It’s adorable. It’s relaxing. And now I’m buying it along with the Switch Lite for my now son (now 21) for Christmas. It’s just a feel good happy game.

    This game is built great and is everything it was meant to be, a relaxing life simulator. This is truly a game that you pick up and play for 5 minutes or 5 hours and be satisfied either way. There are no real, critical, objectives in the game. It’s truly what you want it to be. You build a deserted island and make a life there. That’s it.
