    Animal crossing is an easy, fun way to pass the time. You create and design your own island with the help of your animal neighbors. I really only have 2 overall issues with the game. 1.) Please make some quality of life updates! It is SO grindy! You can't make more than 1 item at a time and you have to have the SAME conversations over and over again when you donate, purchase, sell, etc. 2.) Multi-player is a nightmare. Only one person can actually do anything so player two basically acts like an extra set of hands for player one's game. It would be a lot nicer if there was a split screen option instead.

But i got even more interested when acnh came out. when it was my bd my parents decided to get it but everywhere it was so expensive. i finally found a stock alert where i can get notifs and i got it around 3 months after! it arrived in less than a week and its the original price!

    It keeps everything that works about the Animal Crossing games and improves the graphics! I can't wait to see how they expand the game through content updates. I love the online play options. I'm the only player in my household so I can understand how some are frustrated with the 1 island per Switch configuration but it doesn't impact me so I didn't figure it into my review.

    On May 19th California was put under stay at home orders. This happened to be the release date for Animal Crossing. It is everything right now! I can visit my friends, find meaningful work and order in a very chaotic and confusing world. I look foward to the holiday events and updates as Nintendo enjoys a very well deserved successful launch of this chapter in Animal Crossing.

    I am in my mid 20s, and I have a 5 year old brother. A lot of my friends have this game, and I was skeptical of it at first, but it is truly so much fun. Once I had it for a few weeks, with my brother's birthday coming up, I recommended it to my parents as a gift for him. Now we're both playing the game, each having the same amount of fun, and we get to play it together!

    Favorite Switch Game

    My favorite switch game that I own. I grew up playing animal crossing and this is the best one yet. I love how their are monthly events and how you can connect with multiple friends. An important thing to know is that you only get one island per switch so if expect to have multiple users on a switch have different islands that isn't the case at the moment.

    Never been an Animal Crossing Fan. But I decided to give this game a shot bc of my best friend always trying to get me to play AC with him throughout the years and after him telling me to try this one, I finally gave in. I love this game. It is so fun and is honestly relaxing and a good distraction. I usually play Sports or RPG’s so this game is a nice change of pace for me

    Amazing game. I play it almost everyday. First month, I was addicted - I would play for 3+ hours. Now, I play with friends when new updates come and it's super duper fun! My island isn't too amazing but I finally have all the hybrid flowers! Next goals are to get all the golden tools and museum stuff. I can see myself playing this game for another year.

    I had fun playing this game for a while, but after little over 100 hours I, as well as a couple friends of mine, all tired of the game. It begins to feel like a chore list doing the same things everyday and there is really nothing new to do even with the seasonal changes. There is no real story, you just sort of do stuff. Having a friend visit your island is a bit of a pain in the butt. Nintendo does not make it an easy process. Would have been nice if you could interact with your friends in more ways also. For many hours obviously though, I had some fun with it. It's cool to see your island grow and show your friends around. Just wish there were more interesting things to build or acquire.

    They certainly lucked out with this release when everyone is stuck indoors. Even if it was perfectly fine out, this game certainly holds its own, and improves greatly upon the previous Animal Crossing formula. With so much to do, especially when you have other friends who play it, you certainly will get far more time out of it than most 60 dollar releases. Highly recommend!

    The best way of describing Animal crossing is if you were to add cutesy Nintendo-esque characters with the Sims. The fun is derived on improving your island, having friends over and collecting different things for you museum and island,trading items, buying and selling Turnips on a stock exchange and working towards having an island that describes you. Great, casual fun!

    Good gift for my grandsons. It was a little hard for the 5 year old having to read things in parts of the game, but once they learn how to play it's easy.

    The graphics are really beautiful and the character dialogue is really what makes the game really unique. Harv's island is a really nice touch for when you want pictures specific to poses and emotions, something you didn't get in other games before. The game is overall my daughter's favorite Animal Crossing game yet and she recommends it to anyone who loves relaxing games.

    I got this game because everyone I knew kept talking about it and I had to find out for myself what all the commotion was all about. Helps relieve stress and doesn’t require much brain power, lol. Now I find myself spending more time than I would like to share customizing outfits? The details do not matter! But all in all I definitely would recommend. - Quarantined Buyer
