    Love the game but wish they'd develop more new content! Also, not sure I'll play this much in the future since I've accomplished all the things you can, and holidays seem consistent across years. This game gives ~2 months of light play plus very occasional check-ins. I like it a lot but wish there were more to do.

    We've had this game for a month or so. My 10 and 5 year old enjoy it. Only issue is the coop mode. They struggle with who is the leader and who loses items picked up when they aren't the leader. As with most of our games, we've spent more time exploring than looking up how to do things to get ahead without feeling stuck. Good pace.

    as a 29 year old gamer I never thought I would be into this kind of game, but boy was I wrong. So wrong that due to the quarantine I purchased it the second day of released and still pick it up every day to play. its hard to describe this game in words so check out my review on the game @ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1zHd0PkUBms&t=1s

    I bought this for my grandaughter for Christmas. She loves playing games especially with her brother. I actually purchaced the Nintindo Switch for both of them. They had been saying that was what they wanted for christmas. The folks at Best Buy were very helpful. I am sure there will be big smiles on christmas day.

    I bought this game, because I wanted to be able to enjoy playing it like I saw my daughter do. I'm glad I made the decision because it has enabled me to do that and so much more. One of the things I enjoy most is swimming in the ocean and collecting items to either sell, or to donate to my island museum.

    What a fun little game... although, you are essentially doing chores in a game when you probably already have plenty to do in real life! Still, it's very fun and the ability to visit other people's islands is a great addition to the series. A must buy if you are a fan of the Animal Crossing universe.

    I've been playing animal crossing since the first game on GC. When I heard this was coming out I reserved it through best buy before it was ever added to the store page. This game does not disappoint and proves that Nintendo knows what they are doing, and I would recommend this game to anyone. Just beware of the Sea Bass.. all of them..

    Worried about the world, your health, your finances? The possible zombie apocalypse or end of civilization? Well then Animal Crossing is for you! Now you can run around with cute animals, catch bugs and fish, design your home, build furniture, plant a garden, and a ton of other things to keep your mind off of real life! Highly recommend.

    Much needed for our state mandated social distancing! Keeps all ages in the family busy, especially our 5yr old. Whether it’s fishing, crafting, building, collecting, dressing up, or just following tasks, it’s a great time killer. You can spend hours doing many things, perfect if you want something to keep everyone in the family busy.

    My wife's last game was Aladdin on Sega Genesis. I wasn't very optimistic when she asked for me to pick this up for her with our Switch purchase. I was wrong... she now has get-togethers with her friends in-game and has purchase Animal Crossing t-shirts. She even has made paintings and clothing in-game that match what we have at home.

    ACNH is a fun and relaxing game where you build up your island the way you want. The more you build up your own home the more pricey it gets. The feeling of paying off your debts in the game is gratifying. Be sure to drop 10,000 bells into the money tree and you'll get 30,000 back.

    My wife & I throughly enjoy this game. This is the only game we talk about & play together. Playing it on the same Switch... her & I are on the same island. So we are able to help each other out in accomplishing goals & building our town. Must buy! I was skeptical of the game before buying it for my wife. Now I’m hooked!

    The newest entry of the Animal Crossing series, New Horizons, is a fantastic game. Nintendo has continued to perfect the mechanics and gameplay of the franchise, allowing new player and returning players to quickly get into the huge array that the game offers over time. If you have an itch to broaden your horizons, this is a good choice!

    I own this & I bought it for my mom who is in her 50’s and she loves it as well. It’s adorable graphics and relaxing music made this a nice game. You have enough challenges for several weeks if you play daily. After you “beat” the game you can continue to work on your island, have your friends visit and go to theres.

    The Best Game I've Played in 2020

    I've had this game for about a month and I absolutely adore it. If you're a fan of a game that progresses organically, and is slow but very sandboxy I'd recommend this game. There are so many cute new features that have been improvements on the older games. I don't know if Nintendo can top Animal Crossing as the game to play this year.
