Customer Ratings & Reviews

I've been playing ACNH every day since I bought it (47 days as of this review) and have had a hard time putting it down. There are new fish and bugs to catch every month, along with little events and activities throughout the year. I see myself playing this for a long time.

Great game to construct your own paradise. I really enjoyed playing the game and the bright colors with it.

My 4 year has begged me to get this after playing on a family member's switch. I thought it was too advanced, yet my toddler has figured out how to make it work and learns new options that makes it almost impossible to be bored.

I never thought a game like this would hold my attention for as long or be so much fun. A great way to immerse yourself into another world that is happy and carefree, without being so simple that you feel like it is only for children. I look forward to playing it every day!

Super fun game, played many many hours during Covid and couldn't go anywhere since places were closed. If you haven't played an AC game, you should grab this one as they are constantly adding content!

it’s basically therapy. i’ve played the previous games before and the way that you can do so much with this game is amazing. it really takes you away from reality during these hard times. i would definitely recommend to any new players as well since it’s very easy to play :)

I love this game especially during this pandemic, I work at a grocery store which is very stressful and this game just helps me escape to an island getaway where I don’t have to worry about real life for a couple of minutes...or hours. It’s so easy to lose track of time.

Great game, my wife and I are both playing (note you need a 2nd switch to have separate islands). Totally worth buying a 2nd switch. She doesn't game much but has lots of social media friends/groups playing so she's enjoying herself, especially while everything is in lockdown.

I’ve been loving this game. i got it a few days ago but i’m so addicted to it. been playing with my little brother and we’re having loads of fun visiting each other’s island. super relaxing to play and i always look forward to playing the nest day. definitely recommend!

This is probably the best games on the switch. There is so much to do. Daily tasks and objectives, holiday specials. Lots of customization. This is one of those game you can spend hours and not get bored. You can use the amiibo cards in this game as well.

Do you suddenly find yourself with large amounts of free time? Are you looking for an activity to keep within the limits of 6 feet away from other humans? Then this is the game for you! You will spend ALL, and I mean all of your waking hours playing this game, its that great.

This game is great - starts off a bit slow the first few days, but playing with online friends makes it a bit easier to really shape your island into what you want it to be. I really like the option to just pop in a do a few things or to spend hours reorganizing everything.

The purchase through BestBuy: A very quick and easy download that comes in your email after purchase. Just make sure to hold on to the email it comes in. Really handy when you don't want to worry about losing the tiny game cartridge. The game: I've always loved Animal Crossing. I remember playing it on the GameCube when I was young, and since then I've gotten all the games that have followed. After seven years since the release of New Leaf, the game for 3DS, I was elated to find out a new game was coming out, although worried that all the changes may get rid of the nostalgic Animal Crossing feel. However, the changes ended up simply making that seven year wait worth it. It's almost hard to go back to another Animal Crossing game after playing this one, since they stepped up their game just that much. Whether you're new to the world of Animal Crossing or a Forest Life veteran, it's hard not to fall in love with New Horizons.

This game definitely has been a life saver during the recent pandemic of covid-19. I for one am not too familiar with Animal Crossing titles such as City Folk and New Leaf. But this game sure does perform well and it sure looks great since it has a better platform to play on.

I have played Animal Crossing before on previous consoles and even on my mobile device. This game is fun and new because it incorporates a lot of what made it addicting and makes it fresh, at least to me. The only reason I am giving 4 instead of 5 stars is because the first person that sets up the island becomes the resident representative and they get the most gameplay, goals and instructions. If you have other people in your household of family that live on the same island, they don't get the same exact gameplay. Still, it is very fun to play.

Purchased for my girlfriend and she is completely in love with it. Every day she looks forward to new experiences on her island. A number of my friends have already sunk hundreds of hours into this, so it seems to have substantial longevity. Get the Godzilla statue!

Very fun looking game. I bought this as a Christmas gift for my girlfriend (alongside a new Switch). Super excited to give to her. Heard really good things about this game!

Had to buy this game after finding out it was coming out for the switch. Couldn't have made a smarter purchase. It makes me feel nostalgic coming back to something I would play when I was younger. Also it doesnt hurt to get away from your real life to a fun and exciting one.

Game was great value & caught it on sale. Kids love it, 2 player based.. but whoever starts as the lead character makes the decisions and picks the islands. No way to have more than 1 per console (even with multiple users) that’s the only downside I see.

I've been waiting for a new animal crossing game for awhile and this did not disappoint, especially during this pandemic. It allows for long distance communication and lots of fun and creativity. The staff where I picked up my order were very accommodating during this time.
