Customer Ratings & Reviews

I’ve played every animal crossing game and this one is amazing. The graphics are awesome and there’s so much to do in the game. Being able to play on the tv and handheld mode is cool too

Literally the only reason I bought my switch lite lol who doesn’t love animal crossing? Once you see these graphics and gameplay you’ll look at the older games and think they are something alien

with clean graphics and immersive gameplay, the nintendo switchs take on animal crossing is addictive. highly recommend for anyone who wants to build a welcoming island with cute animal villagers.

Great game, haven't played it as much as I wanted to but it is very much an update version of AC for the Switch. Great gameplay and very much to do so you stay coming back to the game.

Been a fan since it first came out on GameCube. Graphics are great, customization tools are a fun addition, and the online features keep me connected to friends! Perfect quarantine purchase :)

This is my first full dive into an animal crossing game, but I dabbled with New Leaf so I knew what I was getting into. At the beginning of the game, it may feel limiting due to the way that events happen according to real time, but once you begin to unlock more and more you will find yourself falling in love with the characters, collecting, music, customization, etc. I will warn that this is a game that is t be enjoyed over a long period of time and can be played in short bursts everyday (~30 minutes) just to do your daily tasks. I've enjoyed my first week with the game so far (~60 hours) and look forward to all of the possibilities and events that are planned. Highly recommended!

I've been playing this game basically non-stop since 3/20 and I've still not gotten bored! Well needed with all the craziness going on, peaceful and family friendly. especially fun with friends!

My kids love this game and even gets them to bed at a reasonable time now! So many things to do and even coincides with the weather. Graphics are incredible. Highly recommend this game.

It's a great addition to the Animal Crossing series, but also a great standalone game and starting point for someone who has never played the AC games before. Graphics and gameplay are amazing!

Perfect game for all ages. Animal crossing allows you to express your creative side. Build up your island and you can visit your friends islands online. Highly recommend for any switch owner.

If you're looking for a time killing life simulation, this is it for you. Animal Crossing is a series with an appeal that is incredibly difficult to place, but I think the best way to describe it is the freedom to live a relaxing life without the pressure of actual life. Although there are aspects of debt and social responsibilities in the game, you are by no means obligated to do so and can instead go fish, catch bugs, terraform your island, or just make art and sleep. Animal Crossing New Horizons provides you with that freedom in spades, and I would recommend this to anyone who just wants to tend a garden every day without having to worrying about killing those flowers.

What can I say that others have not? Not much. This game is a time killer. You either invest a lot of time or you won’t have fun. Easy that even my kid can play it but intriguing enough that I play it as well. Took one star off because game does not allow more than one “island” per Switch/game cartridge. To have separate islands you have to have a separate Switch and game cartridge.

Bought this game for my sisters. They've been wanting to play it for a while and they love it. They seem to like it and its a good way to pass the time for them. Love to see it

It's what you've come to expect from Animal Crossing and refined to a certain degree. The increasing pocket size is one of my favorite additions. Crafting plays a huge roll now, so you have to collect materials reminiscent of Minecraft in order to make things like furniture, tools, and some story related stuff. Not a terrible addition if you're into it. Has a system where you earn points to redeem for upgrades (like the aforementioned pocket upgrade) and, of course, you have plenty of opportunities to earn and spend bells as you upgrade your house and buy items. If you like previous installments, you'll like this. More of the same with some quality of life improvements.

I got a Switch and Animal Crossings in hopes that I could bridge the gap for my non-gamer girlfriend’s birthday. She is hooked! Perfect game because you can legit pick it up for a little play session and put it down into sleep mode for later. I guess some people don’t think you can be into video games casually. You can, and the Switch proved this for her. Plus now I get to game The Witcher 3 in bed at night with no complaints haha. ACNH is a fun game that can be played for short sessions but also watch out it can totally hook you in for an hour and a half sometimes. I prefer more action in my games but if it’s your thing the game is really polished.

A lot of hours you can put into this game into building up and customizing every little thing. Letting you play with friends makes the game even more enjoyable as you help each other.

This island is your peaceful place. It’s calm and easy to learn. The game is friendly and addictive! I have been suggesting it to co-workers as it is relaxing to play!!! 5 stars!

Bought this for my 7yr old(1st grade). Reading is required for this game and she can comprehend almost all the interactions. Does need some assistance with larger words and scenarios. She’s had a lot of fun with this game and so have I. We’re on the same island together and we can send each other presents and play at the same time which is fun. It’s not great when it comes to coop but it’s sufficient for a short period of time. She also loves the creative process of building and designing her home. Only regret is that I purchased the physical copy instead of digital. I just wasn’t sure how much she’d like it and liked the idea of being able to resell if she didn’t.

Fave game ever! It’s sucha nice way to unwind after a long day and so cute!

Such a fun game to play. Easy to use. And many hours of gameplay
