Amazing game. I play it almost everyday. First month, I was addicted - I would play for 3+ hours. Now, I play with friends when new updates come and it's super duper fun! My island isn't too amazing but I finally have all the hybrid flowers! Next goals are to get all the golden tools and museum stuff. I can see myself playing this game for another year.

I had fun playing this game for a while, but after little over 100 hours I, as well as a couple friends of mine, all tired of the game. It begins to feel like a chore list doing the same things everyday and there is really nothing new to do even with the seasonal changes. There is no real story, you just sort of do stuff. Having a friend visit your island is a bit of a pain in the butt. Nintendo does not make it an easy process. Would have been nice if you could interact with your friends in more ways also. For many hours obviously though, I had some fun with it. It's cool to see your island grow and show your friends around. Just wish there were more interesting things to build or acquire.

She was fast to pick it up & enjoys the soft cartoon graphics! Easy to play

Never been an Animal Crossing Fan. But I decided to give this game a shot bc of my best friend always trying to get me to play AC with him throughout the years and after him telling me to try this one, I finally gave in. I love this game. It is so fun and is honestly relaxing and a good distraction. I usually play Sports or RPG’s so this game is a nice change of pace for me

They certainly lucked out with this release when everyone is stuck indoors. Even if it was perfectly fine out, this game certainly holds its own, and improves greatly upon the previous Animal Crossing formula. With so much to do, especially when you have other friends who play it, you certainly will get far more time out of it than most 60 dollar releases. Highly recommend!

The best way of describing Animal crossing is if you were to add cutesy Nintendo-esque characters with the Sims. The fun is derived on improving your island, having friends over and collecting different things for you museum and island,trading items, buying and selling Turnips on a stock exchange and working towards having an island that describes you. Great, casual fun!

Love the game. Great to play with other family. Easy to learn

I was a huge fan of this game on the 3ds and I am a huge fan here as well. Animal Crossing is a very chill game that you can play anytime anywhere It takes a while to get started and progress at first but once you get things going its amazing. Highly reccomend this game.

The graphics are really beautiful and the character dialogue is really what makes the game really unique. Harv's island is a really nice touch for when you want pictures specific to poses and emotions, something you didn't get in other games before. The game is overall my daughter's favorite Animal Crossing game yet and she recommends it to anyone who loves relaxing games.

I got this game because everyone I knew kept talking about it and I had to find out for myself what all the commotion was all about. Helps relieve stress and doesn’t require much brain power, lol. Now I find myself spending more time than I would like to share customizing outfits? The details do not matter! But all in all I definitely would recommend. - Quarantined Buyer

Great game to relax. Game is ineresting and eady to play.

This game is great at the start due to new things being constantly rewarded to the player for each passing day but after a certain point it just falls off and there isn't really that much to do besides decorate your island. This is still a good thing since it allows for creativity in the design of your home but once you reach that glorious 5-Star Island rating you don't really know what else to do. However, this game is still in its infancy and will be updated in the future with various events and activities to do with the coming months, patching what little there is to do now later. After all, this game is meant to be played over the course of a long period of time since there are only certain things that you can do during specific times of the year.

I love animal crossing sooooo much because you get to make a whole land and everything goes under your circumstances. The music is so soothing and definitely makes the game so much more magical. And every day is a completely new experience full with possibilities. I absolutely love this game and I am very happy to of had the chance to get it from Best Buy!!! - Little Sister

Christmas Gift for my Sister, also got her the Switch with it!

My kid is having so much fun with this game. It’s a cute game.

This game has seriously saved me so many nights being bored. Also has made my sleep pattern an issue. I used to play AC on GameCube and later on the DS. So happy it finally came out for the switch. Note: if you have children make sure you buy them their own switch and copy. It’s one island per console. My son wreaked havoc on my island until I got him his own.

Love this game. It’s easy to just relax and play. Doesn’t take too much effort or thought, you can just have fun building your perfect little island. I’ve got my husband and daughter hooked, too! It should be noted that one game is for one person. You can’t use this as a group game, because you only get one island. So if you have kids, they’ll each need their own game.

This is exctally what you expect from an animal crossing game. The core gameplay has remind the same for 20 years. If you are new to the series what have you been waiting for, a must own for the switch! If you have played a game in the series before than you know what to expect. More of a great thing is always great!!

I love games like this as I am not a big "gamer" and do not enjoy shooting games (I am terrible at them). We had the very first animal crossing and I have been looking for this game since on a similar platform. I wasn't excited that I needed to purchase the switch to play the game but at least it was Christmas and could be asked for as a present.

First be warned that this game can become addicting!! It is a blast to play and can teach kids a few things about animals and even money management. My elderly mother even loves playing! The only downside is that you can only have one island per console, but I guess that’s a smart marketing tool so people buy more consoles, which I did! Overall a wonderful buy!
