    Fantastic game! Iv played animal crossing since GameCube days and it’s truly amazing how detailed and beautiful this new game is! I love the constant updates and content! The community of people playing also make it a great game to play for many hours on end! Truly a staple to have in your game collection.

    This is a pleasantly relaxing game. Its slow paced and following instructions given to you by the natives of island and some help from other players. I just started playing. Its a good way to leave some stress in the real world and get-away to explore an island, especially in the middle of a global pandemic.

    A Different Animal Crossing Experience

    Animal Crossing New Horizons is a good game however it is different from previous versions of AC ..in this game your character ends up taking a trip to a deserted island and while there has to craft things such as tools as well as find materials to upgrade Tom Nooks shop which at the beginning of the game is just a tent and there are parts of the island which you cannot access at the beginning of the game due to needing an item that allows you to get to the other parts of the island,to anyone that has ever played one of these games i would suggest that you pick it up however be prepared to put some time into it before it starts to get interesting.

    Calming, pleasant experience managing your own getaway island experience from the comfort of home. It's been perfect while under quarantine and to unwind from a stressful day. The music is relaxing and wonderful; suitable for the cute but clean graphical presentation. Now go earn those bells to pay Tom Nook back... or else!

    I've played Wild World and New Leaf, and New Horizons is definitely just as good. It feels like it's a bit easier than the other two games, where you'd have to wait MUCH longer for Gulliver, and now balloons appear much more often, but the new mechanics and the freedom to move buildings and visit random islands is wonderful.

    A great sandbox game. Very cute. I spent about 300 hours on it and unlocked plenty. I eventually didn't have time for it, but I'd like to get back to the "daily." I just wish they weren't so strict with times. I work and go to school and don't fit a normal schedule.

    Animal Crossing: New Horizons has great graphics, a very peaceful and pleasant soundtrack, and a happy storyline/gameplay that all combine to create an extremely relaxing game overall. AC:NH is the perfect game to play while in quarantine, as the life simulator provides a beautifully relaxing distraction to the real world.

    This is a great relaxing game to get your mind out of being stuck at home. It is also a great little escape if you're stressed and need a moment to yourself. "They" say best way to slow down time is by doing a plank. I say best way to accelerate time is by playing this game. So Be Warned! You can get lost in this game.

    This is not a game for everyone but at the same time possibly can be. It’s a calm and relaxing game but if you need to have goals to define the games purpose this really isn’t for you. You primarily create your own purpose fishing, eating, crafting and just building your own house and island. It’s a good way to escape life.

    Great game. Its really peacful and nice to decompress after a long day. Only sad thing is that Nintendo no longer plans to update the game as they originally promised to provide them for a few years.

    The best animal crossing game yet, my wife’s guilty pleasure, lots of new stuff to do,you can visit other people’s islands online, on your island you can build bridges to make travel time faster. There are seasonal events, waiting for the Halloween costumes already, family fun for every member of the family.

    Has a lot of content but is missing soul

    Almosr a year down the line, I can say that this game is fantastically polished but unfortunately the content is about an inch deep. There are near infinite customizations and many items, with new seasonal events being added all year. However, the villagers are flat and have little dialog, none are mean like in the order titles, and there is still beloved content from old games that was never implemented (ex, Brewster's Cafe and Gyroids) It held my attention for a while and is indeed a very shiny and well polished product , but ultimately feels less like animal crossing and more like a large dollhouse.

    This game would be fun even in non-quarantine times! This is the 3rd copy we have bought so that our whole family can play and interact with each other in the little animal crossing world. It's great for all ages. The people who play it in our household are 50, 43, 17, and 13 years old just to give an idea.
