    Animal Crossing is the kind of game that you can pick up and play anytime you want. It's the kind of game that you can dive into, play for a few minutes, or even for a few hours if you want to. A great game to play with friends whether locally or online, and with the promise of more content on the way, it's overall a great, relaxing, chill game to just explore through and have some fun with. Definitely better than the one that came on the Wii U.

    Purchased this for my daughter for her birthday. She's played as much as we allow since she opened it. Great graphics. Plays enough like prior version that it is easy to pickup and get to playing. Would definitely recommend to any animal crossing fan, or someone looking for a fun game for a kid that doesn't involve blood or fighting. It's fun to hear her talk about the money she has and how she's purchasing items. Now if she could just apply that to the real world.

    A lot of fun, great game for all ages (kids to adults). Allows everyone to explore their creativity. We have family across states and countries who also have copies of this game, used the virtual world to have a family get together. Even took a family photo in the game. A really relevant game for the current times we are in. For anyone who enjoys a slower paced game focused on building community, structures, completing tasks, etc. This is a great value

    Perfect game to play if you need to unwind after a long and stressful day. You don't need to have any knowledge of the previous games to enjoy New Horizons because I've only played the first one and I am loving all the new content that Nintendo has added since then. Being able to decorate and customize almost everything on your island is overwhelming, but it's satisfying to watch the vision you have for the place slowly come to life. Super feel-good game!

    Best Animal Crossing yet!

    I bought three copies (me/wife, daughter, and mother in law) and we all love it. The customization is much deeper in this game than in past iterations. It is easy to get into and everyday there is something new to do. So far, it has been an excellent experience. My four year old live visiting her sister's (13) island and playing hide and seek in the game. This is a must buy for Animal Crossing fans and is especially fit to the portable abilities of the Switch.

    As a veteran Animal Crossing player, I highly recommend this game. It brings the fun of the previous games to a whole new level with nice bright & colorful graphics, new things to do and is just all around a good time. I do wish there was more to the gameplay and hope previous modes like underwater diving are brought back in future updates and more dialogue for the residents but all that aside it retains the same Animal Crossing charm. It's very addicting!

    On the surface, this is a very casual, simple game: care for a private island, make animal friends, and decorate to your heart’s content. However, the sheer volume of content combined with the slow-paced, relaxing tone of the game makes this entertaining for a very long time, and people who dig into the secrets and advanced mechanics will find more on offer. The game is absolutely better with friends, but can be enjoyed fully as a single-player experience.

    Played some of the gamecube and DS version as a kid and enjoyed it. Decided to pick this game up due to all the hype and was I right to pick it up! Never was a big Animal Crossing fan but this game is addictive. Love what I can do in the game and the different themes throughout the years. Excited to participate in the Halloween event coming up. Would recommend to any AC fan or someone who wants to kill some time during Covid.

    I have played and loved all of the previous animal crossing games (except the gamecube one which i have never gotten my hands on) - and this game is far by the best! They have made so many quality of life improvements and the graphics are so lovely. Customization is available at each and every turn and it really lets you make your island your own. I really love it and it has helped me and my friends stay connected during quarantine. <3

    ANIMAL CROSSING

    This is the long awaited entry in the Animal Crossing series. If you are familiar with the games, the additions and crafting will be a refreshment to game play. This game is simple to start and hard to put down. New players will have a wonderful time learning how to become friends with their new animal neighbors and the rest and relaxation of fishing and hunting bugs(among other activities). Definitely pick this up if you have a Switch!

    I bought this for my wife and kids as this is not a game I would typically play. They have been playing it everyday! You customize everything the way you want and get to see the customization of the other member that are playing. You can even visit islands of family and friends to help with your requirements to build better things! Fun for kids and parents who like to design using their own creativity.

    I have not play Animal Crossing since the first Nintendo DS so I was very excited one has finally come out for the Nintendo switch! This game is everything you want in Animal Crossing. Starting from the beginning you are able to customize your avatar to picking your own island and naming it then build it as the story progress. There is so many things to do from fishing, bug catching, crafting to doing side quests! Get your copy today!

    I have been looking for a game to keep me engaged and to get creative with and this did it for me. It’s a great adventure/lifestyle game and you get to make it yours and be creative with it. The lady at the cashier was very warm and receptive. I highly recommend for anyone looking for a simple and adventurous game.

    family friendly game for the kids and a nostalgic moment for the adults. The game is cute and can be played solo or multiplayer. The multiplayer couch function can be improved but that may come in later updates. It's mostly a design focused game so you can pick it up or put it down whenever you like and you won't be missing much. Nintendo online membership required if you want to visit your friends or have your friends visit.

    I love playing and my daughter is happy to have something we can play together! Having played on someone else’s system, it’s nice to have an island of my own. Lots of time can be wasted playing but at least you’ll be having fun! I recommend this for anyone who needs a get away/escape from the real world for a little bit & likes to play at life.
