Customer Ratings & Reviews

Purchased this for my wife. Husbands out there, please do the same! She enjoys it so much, my time fishing has gone up dramatically. Now she spends more time with Tom Nook than me! 5 stars! In all seriousness, she really enjoys the game. She bought a strategy guide as well to assist with helping build her island. From what I understand, it is addicting, but not my cup of tea. I'm glad she likes it and it seems like many of her friends do as well because they're always on each other's islands. If you're bored during this pandemic, this might be the game for you because it will suck you in!

This is a very good game to play if you have a creative mind. You can build your own world how you want and also play with your friends. Great game to play anywhere!

I actually bought this for my son and my sister who have both been in major lock down since the beginning. They (both of them and my mom) have had some major ups and downs since the stay-at-home order but when they got this...they find smiles and laughter. They both have houses and they find the laughter each time my sister hits a neighbor on the head with the net instead of talking. Great family fun and even thought of getting another Switch so they can easily play at the same time - but for now, they are able to go out and talk to 'people' and even going shopping without worry about getting ill.

This is such a excellent game! I've the customization I can do to my island. Local multiplayer really sucks though, but overall it's a great game for quarantine!

Animal Crossing New Horizons is fun for kids and adults young at heart. The game was a perfect time killer during the summer 2020 quarantine. It's fun building your private island, and the ability to visit a friend’s island makes it even more fun! You must have internet access and a Nintendo Switch Online subscription to visit other people’s islands. Nintendo provides monthly software updates to the game, which also changes with the season of your chosen hemisphere. The game has a vast online community to help customize clothing prints and other island designs.

Animal Crossing has taken so many hours of my children's lives, but at least it makes them use creativity! Close to a mix of Minecraft and Farmland.

This game has so much content, it will keep you busy for quite some time. Perfect edition to the series and a must buy for any previous fan or newcomer to the series.

Crazy crazy addicting game. It has expanded so much since when I was a kid and I really enjoy playing it. One thing I wish is that the creators would release updates a little faster because you really can move through the game quickly and then get bored every once in a while. That can mostly be resolved by time traveling which brings about new seasons and new bugs and fish and such, but if you don't want to time travel you might end up bored a little faster. In the beginning it definitely keeps you busy there for a good couple a months, depending how frequently you are playing it of course.

This is a fun game for all ages. My wife loves this game because it is very relaxing. Lots of stuff to do and clean entertainment for children.

Loving this game, looks beautiful, and cute. Pros: fun, even for beginners, lots of customization and discovery Cons: Tom Nook, only one island per console, waiting

It all started with my in-law bugging my wife to purchase the game because he was certain she would like it. Granted, this is coming from a gamer who is telling his sister to play games, which she never liked, ever, since the beginning of her time lol. After enough bugging from the in-laws, she bit and took the game home. 200 hours of gameplay later it's safe to say she LOVED the heck out of this game! Fast forward another 50 hours (on my end) and I can say this game is freakishly addicting, apart from its defects like island sharing etc., this game is simply a must have.

This game got me through most of the disaster of a year it's been. Just a nice get away from everything with friends and cute animal villagers. Been a fan of the series since GameCube and this game, although missing some things from previous titles, definitely delivers on what new features and gameplay it introduced. And it looks like they're trinkling in some old and new features over time so there's something to go back to every month. It's definitely better than just playing a few time a month to catch the bug and fish of the month and attending the few events and holidays.

I didn't think I would like it but holy crap 300hrs into the game I am still not bored with it. I got the originally for my daughter's (6) switch, then I got it for mine to play on her island and stuff for fun, then end up getting it for my other daughter (4) and we all end up playing together. There's something about the relax play style which is fun, then those villagers and their interactions sometimes catch me off guard and its hilarious. definitely worth your time.

My daughter loves using her creativity and building her own village and I love that it's a clean game she can play with her friends. Win, win!

As with most first party Nintendo releases, they hit it out of the park! Anybody who is a fan of the previous games, you won't be disappointed. Anybody who is coming in new, this is a very simple game to pick up that you will ultimately lose hundreds of hours to playing. The game premise is simple: build up a small society on a deserted island by mining resources, selling items, building infrastructure and item crafting. Fun seasonal events occur in real time, and the laid back nature of the game provides a stress free playing environment. If you own a Switch, you should own Animal Crossing!

While the Animal Crossing Series is definitely geared towards a younger audience, I (20 year old, male, college student) have really enjoyed this game as it is a great way to de-stress, relax, and have the gratification of seeing the development of your virtual island. PROS: Much better graphics than previous games in the series. Interact with friends with both a Nintendo Switch and the game. A needed much needed relaxation from these stressful times. CONS: Online mode can be slow, tedious, and sometimes frustrating. Player needs to work hard to stay engaged with the game.

This game is amazing and looks great on the switch. after 24 hours of playing it I can honestly say this game is going to keep me super busy for a long time to come.

I have really been enjoying new crafting features of the game. And I love that you can customize so many things! A great way to unwind and escape from a crazy day!

Cute, relaxing, fun. This game can be super relaxing when you just want something easy to play.

This is a great game for something that has a lot of stress and anxiety. I loved it so much I sent a copy to my brother in another state so we can play together.
