Customer Ratings & Reviews

As you've probably already read, it's a mostly chill game that probably takes at least 45 mins per day to play, as things change real-world by day and season. Mostly a collecting game with great design and polish. The first Animal Crossing game I've been able to get into, largely thanks to the Nook Miles (achievements/goals) in-game tracking element.

This is the perfect game to play when you're not allowed to leave your house. You can't binge it and be done in a week (unless you decide to time travel) so if you work from home and need to kill 2 hours a day then this is for you! I personally get 5 ish hours out of it a day because I like to pay off loans same day and really decorate and move trees around.

The game I've played the most on the switch and have played AC since the gamecube days. Lots of things to do and collect in the game. You can visit friends' islands and they can visit yours and y'all can play together. I enjoy diving in the game the most.

I love this game. Learn how to craft different items for your house, for others, and you. Get to explore your own island and fly to other islands that are playing the same game. Life is an adventure.

This is a wonderful game and easily my favorite animal crossing. Animal crossing can many times be somewhat sparse with content, but ACNH is filled to the brim with things to do throughout the day. The landscaping options are quite vast and while a little overwhelming they give you a ton of freedom to decorate your island.

I bought this for my wife and she's absolutely loving this game. She keeps saying it's one of the cutest and most relaxing games she's every played. She'll play it docked or bring it to bed with her and play for a little while before going to bed. There's a whole lot of building, gathering and island designing to keep you entertained for hundreds of hours.

After playing this game since release, I can say I love it and really enjoy the freedom it gives me to customize basically my entire island to my liking. This is something I’ve never been able to do in AC, and as a longtime fan it has been great to run around my island knowing that almost everything was done by me. However, I feel that some of the old stuff was snubbed. A lot of classic characters and features such as the cafe and gyroids have not reappeared. Also you can only upgrade Nook’s Cranny once instead of 3 times like before. Overall, the game is great especially if you are new to the series but for us old timers it lacks that feel and charm that the old titles had due to missing features.

I purchased this for my six year old, and I think it’s a great concept. It’s about helping one another and making it work with what you have. Also, the characters use their own language which gets translated for the player in bubble form, making the player read the dialect - so it’s also helping my son to read :) So far, so good!

My daughter has waited years for this to come out. As it happens it came out just as the stay at home order hit our state. She has been able to spend several hours setting up her town and she loves the features of the new game. My daughter is also able to socialize with friends and family in the game. This was money well spent and I would highly recommend.

It has great graphics and endless tasks. Its a cute and fun game!

A lot of fun and easy to play! Family friendly interaction.

I didn’t like the version on the GameCube so I was hesitant to play the switch version. But after hearing great reviews I decided to pay for the game and hope for the best. I’m glad I did because it’s a great game but you can run out of things to do after the main story. Wish the story was longer. But all in all i loved playing it.

What can I add to what's already been said? It's a perfect game for these times, and it's fun even to step aside and let me kids run the island while I catch bugs, dig up fossils, and study artwork for the museum. I don't mind that the first person on the island (my son) gets to do most of the island planning, but it might be an issue for some players.

My stepdaughter absolutely loves it. Just be warned, if you're kid isn't at a reading level, you'll have to play it with them as their is know human language spoken, just animal gibberish with subtitles. Much of the game is decision based so you kind of have to hold their hand through most of it. But they can really get lost in the in between parts. Which is essentially just roaming around doing silly things with no real point to any of it other than to stimulate imagination and learn a few problem solving skills. I don't see how it's any kind of fun but then again, I'm in my 40's. What do I know?

Great game. The graphics are quality as well as gameplay, which has a lot of replay value. It keeps you busy and entertained especially with all the unique features of personalizing to one's taste.

Never knew something so relaxing could be so fun, I am addicted!!!

Totally recommend as its better then any animal crossing version out on the market so far. Have play animal crossing on many different game console but this one tops them all. Will keep game player playing for hours. Also pretty cool you can play with mult-players/online play.

I absolutely love this game. Talk about a cozy fun game! Whenever I want to relax I spend time playing, I enjoy the daily activities and the joy of building an island and making friends with the characters.

Animal Crossing New Horizons is a fun and relaxed game as its predecessors before. This game has become a daily stop during a hard time of lockdown and home isolation. It has given me another fun way to connect to friends and things to do during the day when I find myself looking for something. I wouldn't want to spend my self isolation any other way.

This game is excellent. If you like cute villagers, colelcting outfits, decorating your island and fishing or catching bugs, this is for you. I like how it is self paced - I like to take it slow, I usually just feel relaxed doing my daily tasks, but there’s others who take it at a faster pace which is also an option. It’s basically whatever you make it.
