    It is easy to spend a lot of hours playing this game with friends or alone. The customization option takes a lot of time to unlock but is worth it to terraform the island to your exact specifications.

    Im a nurse and a mom of 2, a 10yr old and 10 month old so everyday is busy. Even before the quarantine came out, i hardly even went out so this game is perfect for stay at home moms or dads, or anyone working who just wants to relax when they get home without dealing with a challenging game, for any age group able to play, its the go to game of the year! Thank you Nintendo! Maybe a little issue with the game here and there but overall its a definite 5* ! Definitely worth your money! And yes you can play this game on either the nintendo console or the switch-lite. Enjoy!

    I bought this game for myself as an early Christmas present. I truly enjoy how relaxing this game is. I didn't believe others when they said that this game is relaxing to play, but it truly is. I would highly recommend this game for anyone who is looking for a leisure game to play that is not overly complicated and you are not rushing to complete difficult and time-consuming tasks. I wish I had this game for the DS when I was playing that system. The game is a little pricy but is worth every penny. I bought this particular game at the same time I bought the system. I knew this needed to be the first game I play on it. I am glad I did not skip over purchasing this game.

    As a gamer who has played and enjoyed AC New Leaf on 3DS for years, I can say that the sequel definitely lives up to the expectations. Great graphics, incredibly detailed game play. Definitely recommended.

    Before you say that you can’t use online or whatever to talk to friends etc. yeah it’s because you need Nintendo online which sucks even though you paid a good amount of money on a game. But honestly, Nintendo online isn’t that expensive. It’s worth the price depending on how long you want your membership. Back to the game, it’s fun to play during these times. FYI only one person/player can play this game, regardless if you have others registered into the switch. If the main person/player plays the game and another person/player wants to to play it with their account, it will take it as if the main person who owns the switch is theirs. Other than that, it’s a great game and I’ve had it for a month.

    Decided to revisit Animal Crossing: New Horizons on the Switch 2 and hey… it’s still such a vibe. Even after all this time, it feels fresh and relaxing. If you’ve been thinking of jumping back in, or visiting first time, do it. Totally worth it.

    My new favorite game!

    This newest Animal Crossing is everything the previous games had and more! I was surprised on how you can customize your town and craft things like furniture and bridges, for example. A lot of new things to keep my family and I logging in! My only piece of advice is to make sure whoever the 1st player you create is, make sure that person plays consistently because they will become the town representative and has more capabilities than other players. I found we can only advance in the town with player 1 doing most of the work (building the museum and Nook's Cranny and preparing houses for new neighbors to move in are dependent on player 1) I hope AC can fix the capabilities with this so all players can do things.

    Animal Crossing: New Horizons is such a beautiful and great game. Living on an island is a great experience. Building new places, meeting new villagers, buying new objects, it's a great casual experience.

    I recently purchased this game for my son. After watching him play it I decided to purchase one for me and my daughter. We all have our own island which makes the gaming experience even more fun as we visit and gift each other often. I throughly enjoy playing this game and do so daily. My villagers are hilarious. I don’t normally screenshot when playing games but I often do, as the dialogue is cute and funny. I have only had this game for a short period and I can honestly say I played this one more so than Zelda and Mario, and I love Mario. This game has become one of my favorites, that I even purchased the bell bag as a keepsake! I think this is a great game and is definitely worth the purchase.

    I love animal crossing! I never have played the other games, so New Horizons was kind of my intro to the world of AC. It is an amazing game! It is very unique in terms of the gameplay, where it is based in real-time, not game time. Animal Crossing New Horizons has become an addiction, and thanks to quarantine I have been able to play it more. The villagers and characters are loveable and so so cute! I have played it for almost a month now and I am still involved and I still enjoy it! However, I don't nearly spend as much time there anymore. (15-30 mins a day now?) I feel like it is a wonderful game but once you finish your island I think it is fun to restart and rebuild the island once again!

    Animal Crossing is such a cute game. It’s so fun and overall it’s customizable too. However, it can get repetitive and sometimes all you can do is wait. This is definitely the kind of game you’d want to buy a more interactive game alone with. If you really want this game, also look into getting more action packed or challenging games (unless of course you want to play strictly for relaxing and leisure purposes). Overall it’s a super cute and fun game, and the more you get into the game the less of a waiting type it becomes, since there is more action on the island. Seasons always make the game fun too, so just consistent playing will make the game even better :)

    If you’ve played it this is the best one on the series so far. New additions and updates graphics and challenges. If you’ve never played it’s in the same vein as the Sims in a way. Fun game for everyone.

    Been a can of this franchise for a long time, I spent countless hours on the other games and I already am doing the same with this one. The graphics are out standing for the switch, even in handheld mode, and how much more they added overall to the game just makes it where you still spend more and more time with it. While there are some things I wish were kept implemented from New Leaf along with other features, it doesn't put poorly on how I feel about the game and I am sure some things will come in future updates since now it's much easier to update games on the switch compared to the 3DS. I look forward to what more this game can give and finding out all I can create to make the perfect island!
