    Wife and 10 year old kids love it. Only complaint they have is you cannot have separate save games on a single device. Unfortunately everyone has to share the same island so be aware if you're sharing with others.

    I absolutely love this game. I play it everyday. It actually became a family game at my house. This is how we bond. lol giving each other presents and traveling to each others islands. It is by far the beat animal crossing made

    I've been playing Animal Crossing since I was a little kid. I was so pumped when ACNH was announced that I preordered the second I could. This game is definitely relaxing and enjoyable but also fun to watch your island grow. Highly recommend.

    It’s Animal Crossing. Hard to sell someone on Animal Crossing by just describing it. It actually sounds like a chore to most people if you try. It’s a chill 30 minute a day experience. If you like miniatures, you’ll like this game.

    This game has been a lifesaver during the pandemic, I am totally obsessed, it's probably my favorite switch game at this time. Its beautiful, a real work of art. For all that went into creating/maintaining this game, $60 is a steal.

    Animal Crossing: New Horizons is my favorite game in the franchise. My wife and I spent ~500 combined hours playing this game. We had so much fun making "friends" and designing our island. Must buy game for any Nintendo fan!

    Fun game! Great for adults and kids! Only issue is if you have multiple Switches in your home, you can only build your island on one of them (for instance, mine is on a Switch Lite while my son plays on a regular Switch).

    This is a great little game and appropriate for the whole family. Just wish I wouldn’t have to buy 4 copies to have my kids all get to play at the same time. We own 4 switches and can’t figure a way to get a game to family share.

    First AC I played was on the original DS. So it's not my first AC. Highly addicting but not really meant to be played for extended periods, upgrades on buildings don't complete until next morning IRL. Four Stars because Nintendo still hasn't added more item interactivity this far into the franchise, you'd think there'd be more animation depth. Items are still just things you press A on and that's it. I want to grab a guitar off the stand and shred.

    Been waiting to get this game for a while definitely does not disappoint. Only downside is if you share a switch and a island only the primary first player gets to do most of the tasks & gets most of the recipes compared to the second player

    Didn't just buy it for my girlfriend but also picked up a copy for myself so we could play together. The game is slow (it's a life simulator after all) but as you progress you feel good to look back and see the achievements you have made.

    Animal Crossing New Horizons is a fun, lighthearted game, I had never played an Animal Crossing game before this one and now I am hooked, it's very relaxing and very easy to lose track of how long you've been playing. Highly recommended!

    This game is excellent for players who like to collect, gather, and design! I bought it a week ago and I can't stop. It's so much fun! It's relaxing, charming, and a great time. It's fun to meet up with friends and see their islands.

    Got this from my mom with a Switch. Wasn't sure i would like it. Honestly it did take me some time, but once a few things happened, I was engaged, and now it's fun to interact with my family on our islands!

    I bought this game for my daughter for Christmas. She absolutely loves it! My niece even got hooked on it and her mom had to go buy the game for her too! They are around 9-12 years old. Good E rated game for children.
