    Animal Crossing: New Horizons has great graphics, a very peaceful and pleasant soundtrack, and a happy storyline/gameplay that all combine to create an extremely relaxing game overall. AC:NH is the perfect game to play while in quarantine, as the life simulator provides a beautifully relaxing distraction to the real world.

    I've played Wild World and New Leaf, and New Horizons is definitely just as good. It feels like it's a bit easier than the other two games, where you'd have to wait MUCH longer for Gulliver, and now balloons appear much more often, but the new mechanics and the freedom to move buildings and visit random islands is wonderful.

    The best animal crossing game yet, my wife’s guilty pleasure, lots of new stuff to do,you can visit other people’s islands online, on your island you can build bridges to make travel time faster. There are seasonal events, waiting for the Halloween costumes already, family fun for every member of the family.

    This game would be fun even in non-quarantine times! This is the 3rd copy we have bought so that our whole family can play and interact with each other in the little animal crossing world. It's great for all ages. The people who play it in our household are 50, 43, 17, and 13 years old just to give an idea.

    Bought it for my younger sister. I told her to pass it and I'll get her another game. She's going to be playing for a very long time. Perfect gift.

    This is a great relaxing game to get your mind out of being stuck at home. It is also a great little escape if you're stressed and need a moment to yourself. "They" say best way to slow down time is by doing a plank. I say best way to accelerate time is by playing this game. So Be Warned! You can get lost in this game.

    I bought 4 copies of this game for my wife and 3 daughters. They all play on their switches and gave enjoyed playing with each other visiting their respective islands. They all are very happy with the game, recommend to anyone with kids that enjoy adventure type games.

    My daughter plays this game all day. It is really addictive. She enjoys changing the clothes and building her own island. Not as much fun for mama though.

    This is not a game for everyone but at the same time possibly can be. It’s a calm and relaxing game but if you need to have goals to define the games purpose this really isn’t for you. You primarily create your own purpose fishing, eating, crafting and just building your own house and island. It’s a good way to escape life.

    Not as good as New Leaf, but the core of the Animal Crossing games that we love is there. They just have some things to work out. The visitors seem to be random and often pointless (I've waited nearly a month for Red to show up - at times), there is no real need for KK to be there all Saturday, there is no Brewster, the crafting seems pointless a lot of the time, as does the campsite (almost all my residences come from DAL island trips. While the events started of poorly, the fall events have been pretty good. Seems like Nintendo put their b team on this one, but it is still good. New Leaf is a hard act to follow.

    If you have played AC before, you know what you are getting into. If you have not played AC before, this is a great relaxing game to play for hours doing little tasks. Don't come in expecting this is an action pack game because it is not. Take your time, enjoy doing tasks, building your island and home. Great game.

    If you've been a fan of the franchise then you'll love this game!! Such a perfect peaceful friendly game to enjoy alone, with friends, and even with family (but be aware that even if you have several accounts on the switch, the game only allow one island per switch console, and at the moment cloud saves isn't available)

    My daughter and wife love this game. They spent all afternoon getting setup (in the game) to play online with our family friends. A lot like Minecraft (from my perspective) but as interested as my wife is, I say there's much more to it. Great family fun!

    I have no idea why this game is good but it seems that people seem to love it. My daughter could spend hours upon hours playing this game and still wants to play it as soon as she wakes up. It is not my type of video game but I can tell it is very popular with general population specially during these tough times.
