    Ever since it came out I’ve been playing nonstop. It’s so simple yet so fun. Anyone of all ages can play this game and it’s a good stress reliever too, along with it’s relaxing music. If you like games like the Sims or Stardew Valley, you’ll really like this game!

    It was a gift & they loved it. They were able to download it in no time. Plus, BB emailed it fairly quick. Would highly recommend it instead of buying the actual game especially for a young child. The game is super fun too.

    Animal Crossing Is Awesome

    This game is a fun time where you create your own village. You can even visit your friend's villages and vice versa. This is currently the second best selling game on the Switch. After buying it and playing it, I can see why.

    We love animal crossing but....

    We're a family of four with one switch currently. If you buy this game and intend to play it with your family be aware of this. Everyone in your family is on the same island, and whomever created the first character gets to name the island and controls all game progression... the rest of you are just along for the ride. Don't get me wrong I still love animal crossing but It would be much better if each profile could choose to share an island or have their own. Nintendo has a one island per switch policy it seems though.

    I’ve been waiting for a new game to come out since 2017. I joined to ACNL gang much later, but still found myself deeply in love with the game. ACNH tops it off though, everything you wish you had in NL you have it in NH. If you’re considering, just buy it already.

    Great game! My 11 year old loves this game because it is interactive and I love it because all the dialogue with her and characters keeps her reading. It’s like an interactive animated story book. It’s Great! I highly recommend this game.

    Most addictive game for all my girls. From mom to daughters, I no longer am the king of my switch. Parting is such sweet sorrow. I had too buy another switch and still don't get to play because they play together. Good problems, lol.

    My wife is obsessed with this game. It has addictive gameplay and the visuals are cute. She’s been playing it for a year now. Beware, you may not get your switch back if she won’t put the game down.

    This has been my teenage daughter's favorite game. She absolutely loves it and is super excited to show off what she's creating. I have 7 and 8 yr old boys that weren't really into the game so it may only be appealing to older age groups.

    How can you not love this game? It's so relaxing and helps take my mind off of the crazy stuff going on in the world today. Cute characters, lots of fun building and decorating houses and your island. I play everyday and have enjoyed every minute of it.

    Been playing it since I bought it. It does get a little boring at times waiting to unlock stuff. But there is always new events to keep you busy in the game. It’s a very relaxing game to just chill and craft stuff. I

    We live in a strange world right now and New Horizons is a great way to escape the stress and anxiety we’re all feeling. I’ve never played an Animal Crossing game before so I can’t really compare it to one of the older ones, but it’s a lot of fun and addicting.

    Another great Animal Crossing game. Similar enough to New Leaf, City Folk, and Wild World yo keep AC fans happy, yet unique enough to keep new gamer entertained. Picked it up from my local Best Buy store during the COVID-19 crisis. Staff was very helpful and kind.

    Very easy to get into! I think that AC games have been best played in spurts, which isn’t a bad thing, but this version has more content that allows you to play just about as much as you want! With all the upcoming events, things will stay fresh. Highly recommend.

    Whenever the original came out I did not have a 3DS to play it. So I am so thankful and glad I got the chance to play this wonderful game. This game will be a fun form of entertainment for all ages and easy to comprehend. Thank god it came out during quarantine!
