    This game is so much fun! My wife and I almost purchased a second Switch so we didn't have to take turns playing but this game has unlimited potential. Get to explore and use your own creativity to create your own little world.

    Incredibly simple and yet addicting. Long-time fans of animal crossing will appreciate the returning and updated features, while newcomers will find it easy to start. Online Multiplayer leaves much to be desired, but excellent as a single-console game

    I have played every game in the Animal Crossing series since I was a kid. I'd race home to get a chance to develop my town on Gamecube and until this day I've anticipated further releases. While Animal Crossing: New Horizons is a great game and really does allow the nostalgic fans to get another dose of what they love most, it doesn't feel like the jump we deserved. It's been a long time since New Leaf released and somehow this just doesn't seem like a good enough follow up to the 3DS game. It's great, don't get me wrong, but this many years into developing the series and it felt like they removed a lot and depended on a crafting system to do a lot of the work for missing content. Let me be clear, crafting is boring, tedious and irritating. Cataloging new items is cool and all but this feature is not good enough to take the place of some removed features. Also, the overall design is marred with clunkiness and annoying quirks. There's a lot of stuff you can't do that you should be able to and rather than fully detail this I'll summarize it quickly. I think I have every right to feel this way too, as I've played the game for 300+ hours. If you are already an Animal Crossing fan you'll enjoy it. If you're new, you'll definitely enjoy it. But don't expect it to entertain you as long as other games may have. Nintendo has sought to slow-drip events and content into the game to keep you around but the game feels more like a chore rather than the escape it masquerades as.

    Very fun because you can fish in the game and also you have to be careful with your money(called bells in the game) because you can either waste it in your tent loan or you can waste it for decorations. Overall this is probably one of the best game.

    Love this. It is the best game ever. I bought Switch because of this game. The game is creative and fun. It has 400 + animals for you to choose and you could build whatever style of the island you like, which is fun and time-consuming.

    Wonderful game so far! I enjoyed New Leaf, so being able to play this on my TV or handheld is pretty nifty, plus we are all staying indoors. It's a perfect combination. This is a very stress-free game and is actually a great stress reliever. There is a little something for everyone in this game, young and old alike. I will say that I understand the low ratings involving the one island per console, but I don't share my switch and I'm solo, so I'm good. I don't think a mechanic in online play should necessarily sway someone away from this great game. Hopefully Nintendo will add something later to fix that, but for right now I love it for what it is, and that is a very fun escape from the dark world around right now. Stay safe and enjoy this fantastic game!

    Old time Animal crossing fan and this game is a worthy succesor of the franchise. It has all the elements you love and so much more. It's soothing and enjoyable, stress free and a super nice way to unwind after a long day.

    I've played each animal crossing game since the GameCube, and this one does not disappoint. It takes a bit of work to get your island up and running, but aside from that, there are many things to do that will keep you entertained!

    I've been an AC fan since my beloved gamecube. Lots of updates and things to do everyday you play. Being able to complete transform your whole island is huge for me. Only drawback is 1 island per console. But that was clever on Nintendos end. $$$

    Well. I preordered a physical copy of the game around 2 weeks in advance and didn't receive it until 2 days after the release date, so I certainly don't recommend doing that again. The game itself though is killer and a great addition to the series

    Super addicting game. I didn't think id be this into it, its nice. You can get creative with your island and even get cool villagers to move in. You can also go to your friend’s island if they have the game + Nintendo Switch Online.

    Bought two copies for the house and a switch lite to go with the regular switch for the wife and daughter to play it on. They love it. They play online with four other friends that bought copies and switch lites just so they can all play together.
