    I did not know what all the hype was about but since it was so popular, I purchased it for my kids. Both my kids like being able to “earn” things as they upgrade their livelihood on the island. Note that I wound up buying another copy of the game so each of my kids (who have their own Switches) can play and manage their own island. They can visit each other through local play.

    I was first introduced to Animal Crossing on the Nintendo 3DS. That game quickly became a family favorite and I caught myself owning multiple copies for each household member. A quick jump to present day 2020 and I did the same thing again. Four copies of Animal Crossing New Horizons and four satisfied gamers. Ages ranging from 4 to 31, we all are enjoying our time with the game.

    This was a PERFECT game for a dismal year. Who wld have thought planting, scavenging, collecting, decorating, etc.- wld bring warmth to my heart. I put hundreds of hours on this charming game. I only wished the online features were simpler, but this is a great game. It also offers continuous updates and festivals to make u keep coming back

    I have always loved animal crossing ever since city folk came out for the wii. One of my favorite things that they did for this game is your able to craft your own tools. Where in the older games you had to purchase them. It definitely seems like there is a lot more to do in this game. But overall the graphics are incredible. It’s definitely a great game and I recommend it to anyone!

    Much like Animal Crossing new leaf, this animal crossing gives you your own space (an island) in which you can design the layout and help move other animals in and thrive to grow your island. Bugs to hunt, fish to catch, a house to remodel, New Horizon gives you an escape from all the craziness going on during the pandemic and you ca even socialize with friends if you have internet!

    This is a great game for someone who is not an intense gamer. It's relaxing because there aren't any real objectives. There are no fights or complicated storylines. The game is what you want to make it. If you just want to walk around and make your town nice, that's fine. Or you can make it a point to catch bugs, fish, etc. It's very easy to pick up and put down.

    This game truly shines bright, standing above the usual suspects that gamers typically purchase. Anyone can pick up and play and subsequently put it down once they’ve realized just how much time they’ve spent meticulously crafting their perfect island. You definitely put in what you get out and I believe it has the right amount of oomf for casual and hardcore gamers alike.

    It's definitely has plenty of nostalgia of the past Animal Crossing games with plenty of new things and good "quality of life" fixes. The online (or local) with friends is the best part. The ease of traveling to each others' islands really adds to it. It's also getting plenty of updates and patches to increase the quality of the game and presenting seasonal events. Very chill game.

    Having only previously played ACNL, I was unsure what to expect. But I'm having a ton of fun as I'd hoped! Tons of characters, tons of exploration, and tons of fun! I'm enjoying the switch version much more than the DS version, and though I've got a few minor gripes (it doesn't use the Switch's touch screen or allow rearrangement of inventory) it's fantastic!

    I've had this game for a while now, withholding the review for indepth gameplay, but now I can for certain say that I recommend this for everyone. It's great! It's sooo much fun and I just love how they still have the classics but also brand new things- that you must check out for yourself! I love playing AC on my TV again and the Switch makes it possible!

    Animal Crossing for the Nintendo Switch is a highly entertaining game. There are many things to discover and the gameplay is fun. There are many things about this game that your children will enjoy. I also like how it features concepts such as ATM machines, savings and loan payments. Your children can also collect items to donate to a museum to re-visit!
