    I bought this for my kids (9 and 7) but my wife and I ended up playing it as well. We're living on our own island living as a happy family. The game is fun with menial tasks you need to do every day. There is some dedication to this game, as you have daily tasks you should finish to advance your island. The only drawback is that there is only 1 island per Switch, so if you have a family playing (like us) there's no opportunity for each to have their own island to advance. Still a good time, though!

    I wasn’t too sure on how I would like the game, but I love it. I play almost everyday. If you have patience to collect and explore then it’s the game for you.

    As an avid fan of Stardew Valley, I wasn't entirely convinced that Animal Crossing: New Horizons would give me as much joy as the the former did. Well, it absolutely has. This game has been a saving grace during this pandemic. It is an absolute gift.

    Great Game, My wife started playing and she got me hooked during our states lockdown when this released. We used to share on 1 switch, but I had to go out and get my own switch and copy if the game so we could both play at the same time.

    A very fun game to play, the kids like it. As well as the adults. A lot of talking in the beginning but it gets better as the game progresses.

    It's a fun simulation game that you can easily get sucked into with lots of activities and challenges to complete that aren't too difficult. Worth buying to pass the time with your friends during this quarantine and give in to the hype if nothing else.

    Can create own look, choose island map, earn miles as well as bells to buy things. Same characters, but now able to place items outdoors, so camp is more customizable. Have only had for a week, but the further you get in the game, the more you can do.

    My whole family has been Animal Crossing fans from day one. We've played multiple versions on multiple devices over the years. Honestly this game is why I bought my switch. As a bonus I was able to get the AC themed switch so there's that.

    As a parent who has given in to allowing my eight year old to engage in online gaming, this game is a refreshing departure from other building/crafting games she has played before. It’s creative and reinforces patience and process.

    Very fun and relaxing game for the switch! You can be very creative and make your island however you want. I will mention though that once you are done with the main missions, there isn't too much to do (task wise). Otherwise a great game!

    My wife is obsessed with this game. It has addictive gameplay and the visuals are cute. She’s been playing it for a year now. Beware, you may not get your switch back if she won’t put the game down.

    At first I thought the game was slow and didnt make much sense but after a couple of days I found myself playing all of the time. The game is a good way to pass time or keep your mind off of something. Alwaulys something to do pr create on the game.

    I’ve never played any of the Animal Crossing games before and a lot of people I knew were getting this game. I decided to get it as well. And it's the best Nintendo switch game without a doubt.
