Customer Ratings & Reviews

This game is an absolute time sink but if you have the time it is so much fun to play and rewarding with your creativity and how you want to build your island.

Ever wanted to run your own island? Ever wish you had talking animals as neighbors? Well, one of those is a little less realistic and I'm not sure which. But hey you weirdo, with this game your dreams come true! Catch sharks and tarantulas and sell them for sweet sweet bells, or give them to your neighbors to creepily collect as pets. The world is your oyster! This game is seriously cute. There's no real right or wrong way to play. But it is rewarding seeing your hardwork come together as your friends visit and admire your beautiful flowers and try to steal your favorite neighbors.

Purchased this for my fiancee, as she was playing some silly dragon game on her phone during stay-at-home, and this seemed to have more substance. This has occupied an equal amount of her time, which is to say all of it. She's got a really great garden and orchard going, which is nice. She's also made some pretty outfits. I like the viking helmet that she shook loose from one of the trees I mentioned earlier. She managed to catch three Oarfish, which from her excitement, seems like a pretty big deal. There's also a pen with 5 turtles next to her house, and I suggested she build them a pool.

Originally purchased this for my children...found myself playing it more than they do. This game looks deceptively simple, but it is actually has a lot going on.

This game is definitely worth all the hype it's getting. It's entertaining, and definitely exceeded all my expectations. At first, I thought that it would be really simple and basic, but I got really into it. There's daily goals that you need to do, which keep you busy, but the reward is definitely worth it. I really enjoy how each villager that moves in is completely random (at least if you don't cheat), the only thing that bothers be is that I'm constantly in debt but that's the price of me having a great house! Overall, I highly recommend this game, it's so adorable and wholesome.

Great game for the whole family! Entertaining for sure and enhances creativity. Worth the money.

New, fresh, and the most customizable Animal Crossing game ever released! Nearly everything about this game improves upon the previous games from quality of life improvements like bigger inventory and storage to customization like adding your own designs to nearly everything and changing the actual landscape however you see fit! Not many flaws except that many tools break WAY to often and people playing on the same switch are forced to live in the same town regardless of separate profiles. All in all, this is truly the best entry in the Animal Crossing series of games! Would highly reccomened!

I got this game on a whim, but I ended up enjoying it! I didn’t think I would enjoy it much seeing at it was very popular and I have trouble trying to play games with a large audiences. But it is really fun!

Great game! Very easy to place. Great for kids who like to build.

Amazing game, super fun and you can make your island yours. Some aspects are a little tedious and online is not great, but it’s extremely fun.

Animal Crossing games have had a split history for me. The original was a game type I had never played before. I nice relaxing game with no real end goal; just decorate my house, catch some fish and chat with my lovely animal neighbors. But, since it was on my TV I would tend to play for hours. The handheld games I took the opposite approach, making it a daily routine to play for up to an hour but being just as fun in smaller quantities. This game is both wrapped up in a beautiful bow that is a next generation title. The biggest addition are the many lairs of customization the game offers.

This is a great game that my son loves to play and it is also a game that adults can play as well. It allows my son during the pandemic to play with his friends on line in a game where you create your own section of the world and they can come and visit the area that you have built in the game. This is a game that I can also go in and play with my son with and at the same time check on my son at the same time. Also I like how this game does not have violence all throughout the game. A must for kids and adults alike.

Amazing! The game is tons of fun and perfectly enjoyable and relaxing for all ages! Thanks Nintendo for bringing back my best childhood memories, keep it coming!

I didn’t think I’d love this game so Much. It quickly becomes an obsession. Super easy to pick up and learn and will keep your entertained for hours on end.

I have been playing Animal Crossing since the Nintendo GameCube. This game is amazing and full of fun. The new individual island and its customizations adds to hours of game time. Some things to note. You can only have ONE island per Nintendo Switch. If you have siblings and they are sharing the console they all will have their own character but only ONE island. Other than that all I can say if you feel like adventuring around whether in your own island or visiting other people's island this game is a must own for any Nintendo Switch user.

We ordered this with high expectations of course. The only criticism I can come up with is that if you have two separate accounts on one switch, it does not let you both have a separate island of your own. You have to share an island and that was not clear to us initially. But, overall it's still a very sweet game and very sweet in such a stressful time.

Best Animal Crossing game yet! Unlike previous games in the series, you can now terraform your island! Can also place items outside of your house. Easily lose hundreds of hours designing the island you want. Lots of designs online you can download via codes, for custom paths, clothes, etc. The only downside of this game is that every user on your Switch is on the same island. Meaning you have to share your island. Sometimes that other user might accidently change your look of an area or kick out your favorite villager, etc. Really odd choice for them to make it one island per Switch console. Online play is optional & is very clunky. You have to enter a code to enter a friend's island, there's lots of loading hiding behind the fly over animation/cutscenes, where it takes like 30 seconds to 5 minutes before you can actually move around on their island. Meanwhile your friend & everyone else already on the island is interrupted & also have to wait. It gets really annoying when multiple people visit during the same session. Lots of waiting as each player loads.

Very fun and relaxing game, kid friendly as well. Doesn't really have a point to it, but its cute!

This game is so awesome. It’s great for mindful activity during this difficult time and can bring fun for hours! Also visiting people’s islands is super cool.

I gifted this title. It was colorful, challenging and enjoyable! Importantly, it can designed to be played by everyone!
