    Since purchasing Nov 11th, my wife plays this at least 8-10 hours a day 7 days a week. It has consumed her and caused many arguments about time management. Our house is ruined. I guess its a great game? :)

    It’s a great and simple game. Definitely helps to kill time right now with the whole quarantine stuff going on. I’d recommend anyone that enjoys crafting or simulation games to purchase this title. The curbside pick up was also really great, simple and efficient.

    This game is addictive, so much so I had to buy another Switch so I didn't have to share with the kids. They play this game every now and then, but they are more into Minecraft. It is a great way to tune out the world and chill out.

    Purchased this right before we went for COVID lockdown, and kids play all the time. I believe they reached over 300 hours in gameplay already and Nintendo still supports free seasonal upgrades so if you are still about to start its not too late.

    More Stuff but a bit less Quality of Life

    I wish it had the 3ds version's ability to set ordinances so you have play late at night, and using the microphone to location villagers... Aside from that it's addition of the 'smartphone' and questing makes it easier for new players to find stuff to do.

    This game is very fun. It has really good graphics and easy controls. I haven't had the game long but it always has me doing something. This game is great for people who just got a switch or are looking for a brand new game that'll let them make a brand new island.

    Picked it up via Curb Side, have played it once a day, at least. Very easy to pick up no matter what. It’s been a time killer for me at work while we lack business due to COVID-19. It is most definitely a game you can play when you have some free time out and about.

    Best game Nintendo produced in years! Great for all ages. It’s helping my grandson to read as well as understanding finances, like having to work to get the things he wants. Bought to go with a switch lite for Christmas. They both were a big hit!

    I now understand what the hype is all about. The game very cute! It’s oddly relaxing and a really fun. It keeps you engaged and is very entertaining. I’ve only played about three times and I’m really enjoying it.

    Good, but multiplayer could use some work.

    It’s a common theme with Switch games that you have to get to a certain point, then do something special to enable multiplayer. Here you have to do the same, and the other player must start the game with their profile on the same Island. At that point one player can call the other to join their game, but then one acts as a leader and the other one just follows. It’s a cool game but games shouldn’t make you go through all these hoops for a multiplayer experience. It’s a little challenging for 6 yr olds as it has lots of reading.

    My son is mostly a PC gamer. However, he has a switch and this game is certainly one of his favorites. He'll connect the Switch to his gaming monitor. The graphics are very good. His friends love playing this game when they come over.

    Amazing Animal Crossing Entry

    Amazing new entry in the Animal Crossing series. It became a sensation for a good reason. My only real complaint is that as the events are linked to real time it can sometimes feel frustrating when you have a busy life of other things to do.

    Clever Innovative Game! Animal Crossing New Horizons doesn’t build a world for you to enter. It allows you to build a world to live in. Explore and build your home on a new island. A clever and imaginative game. Just started this game and can’t wait to play more.

    By far the best animal crossing experience thus far. The addition of terraforming and crafting has added so much more to the gameplay than back in the Wild World days. It is a must play. Even if you think you wouldn't enjoy it, try it. The fun will find you.

    Bought this for my wife as a gift (along with the switch) and she's been playing it almost non stop since. Then I had to buy a copy for her sister, now they play it together. It's farmville on crack with a side order of DIY crafting and landscaping.
