    This is a nice relaxing game except when you get to nooks cranny, Timmy and Tommy are the most hyperactive loss prevention agents I’ve ever seen .

    This game is so much fun! My wife and I almost purchased a second Switch so we didn't have to take turns playing but this game has unlimited potential. Get to explore and use your own creativity to create your own little world.

    Very cute and relaxing game! I can tell a lot of time and effort was put into this game and I appreciate it very much. The game is slow at first, but once you start making improvements on your island, its easy to get lost in the game!

    This game is great to play after a long day where you can just relax and get lost in the world. The game lets you do things on your own schedule and does not punish you for missing things. It is good for all ages and can be enjoyed by everyone.

    My kids have been playing this since the start of COVID-19. They really enjoy it but they did say that if they were not in Shelter in Place and had so much time in their hands, they might not have liked it as much. They say it's time consuming.

    If you never played or have played multiple versions of animal crossing this is for you. Fun enjoyable game that you can play by yourself or with friends. Kid friendly but also great for adults. Will make you made at times but overall very wholesome.

    Felt a bit iffy about the crafting system at first, but it all works together really great. This game will suck you in for 4+ hours a time, so be prepared. Very addictive. Easily the best addition the AC series ever. A must have for Switch owners.

    Wanted to buy my nephew this because I play it, so I figured we could play together. The only tricky part was figuring out a safe contactless delivery, then it hit digital download! Plus the game is amazing! It makes the pandemic time go by faster!

    I have played every game in the Animal Crossing series since I was a kid. I'd race home to get a chance to develop my town on Gamecube and until this day I've anticipated further releases. While Animal Crossing: New Horizons is a great game and really does allow the nostalgic fans to get another dose of what they love most, it doesn't feel like the jump we deserved. It's been a long time since New Leaf released and somehow this just doesn't seem like a good enough follow up to the 3DS game. It's great, don't get me wrong, but this many years into developing the series and it felt like they removed a lot and depended on a crafting system to do a lot of the work for missing content. Let me be clear, crafting is boring, tedious and irritating. Cataloging new items is cool and all but this feature is not good enough to take the place of some removed features. Also, the overall design is marred with clunkiness and annoying quirks. There's a lot of stuff you can't do that you should be able to and rather than fully detail this I'll summarize it quickly. I think I have every right to feel this way too, as I've played the game for 300+ hours. If you are already an Animal Crossing fan you'll enjoy it. If you're new, you'll definitely enjoy it. But don't expect it to entertain you as long as other games may have. Nintendo has sought to slow-drip events and content into the game to keep you around but the game feels more like a chore rather than the escape it masquerades as.

    Incredibly simple and yet addicting. Long-time fans of animal crossing will appreciate the returning and updated features, while newcomers will find it easy to start. Online Multiplayer leaves much to be desired, but excellent as a single-console game

    Wonderful game so far! I enjoyed New Leaf, so being able to play this on my TV or handheld is pretty nifty, plus we are all staying indoors. It's a perfect combination. This is a very stress-free game and is actually a great stress reliever. There is a little something for everyone in this game, young and old alike. I will say that I understand the low ratings involving the one island per console, but I don't share my switch and I'm solo, so I'm good. I don't think a mechanic in online play should necessarily sway someone away from this great game. Hopefully Nintendo will add something later to fix that, but for right now I love it for what it is, and that is a very fun escape from the dark world around right now. Stay safe and enjoy this fantastic game!
