    Fantastic game can’t put it down, the only downside is one island per console.

    The game is very relaxing you can do as much or as little as you would like depending on your time. Nothing is missable, per say some events are tied to holidays, but you can always time travel in case you miss any holidays. The game does an excellent job catering to casual players.

    I loved this game when it came out! It was fun to play for awhile and really gives you the feeling like you have your own different life in the game. You can decorate your house, inside & out, and the land around your island. Characters all have different personalities and are fun to talk to! Even more fun to play online with friends. You can go fishing, bug hunting, constructing, and shopping!

    I bought this game back in March during the shutdown and finally got around to playing it in September. Never thought I would like it as much as I do. My wife and daughter love it and finally convinced me to try it. Now I see how friends have spent hundreds of hours playing this fun, relaxing game. Wish I would have listened months ago when others told me to check it out! Highly recommend AC.

    Never played any animal crossing games before, this was my first one and it is absolutely amazing. If you want an action packed constantly on your edge game, this is NOT for you. This is a great game for relaxing and just listening to tunes. This is the type of sim game to build a village and go crafting, etc. Packed with great free updates constantly, there is always new things coming to the game.

    This have is fun and relaxing. You could design your own island and house and everything. There's no enemies to fight or any action but I still found it really fun. It's very expansive with a lot of options. Once you play this, it's hard to play another game of the same type, because this is the funnest and best one I've tried so far. From kids to adults, everyone loves this game. A must have for switch.

    This is a game that will never get old. Since this game adopts the real life time, you'll want to keep coming back. It reminds me of the never ending story movie because things will happen all the time even without you being there. Holidays will be celebrated and events will happen so make sure you're present. It's a great game to collect, craft and trade. You'll have fun playing this game for years to come!

    The timing of the release of this game worked well for us--our state had just issued stay at home orders and the schools closed for the rest of the year. We ordered online and picked up the item at Best Buy (they brought it out to our car) and that was very fast and convenient. Our teen daughter is enjoying this game and she can play with her brother on the same console since there is party play/co-op option.

    I was able to get this for $10 off, and it's a great game to unwind with at the end of the day. Even though it's at your own pace, there's always something to do for miles or bells, which makes it good for any amount of time you'd like to spend on the game. I've played Pocket Camp before, but it's nice to not worry about ranking up and having more freedom to structure/create things.

    I am a OG animal crossing player and I almost like this one as much as the first one. ( the Gamecube one was my favorite). In new leaf the animals were really boring but in this one they made them really interesting again. However, they are not mean like the Gamecube one but they do have their moments. The level of personal creativity you can invest in this game is what I have been wanting. Highly recommend!

    If you're a fan of past Animal Crossing titles, you'll love this one too. It has all the charm plus additional things like crafting to make it fresh. Even if you haven't played one previously, anyone that enjoys casual, stress-free games will enjoy it! Also wanted to give a quick shout out to Best Buy, I pre-ordered this title and it came out during the middle of a pandemic, and it was still delivered on time!

    Last year for Christmas i purchased a ninetendo switch for my grandaughter, there weren't very many games that she found that she thought would be good so i only purchased two. This was a highly anticipated game that she coouldn't wait to own. It's suitable for her age which is 10, she's able to navigate through this game without any problems and she absouletly love it!

    Really fun game! A little text heavy so you need to understand what they’re asking for, but even my nephews who are very very little got the hang of it quite fast and I just helped them on the parts they couldn’t understand or had to read (they’re not in preschool yet). But it’s a great game and it’s very educational when it comes to plants, dinosaurs, and insects.
