    Really haven’t had a chance to delve to much into this because my daughter can’t stop playing. If you’ve enjoyed any of the previous Animal Crossing games you’ll enjoy this. The only downside is one island per Switch. Since my daughter set it up first I can’t differentiate from what she has accomplished

    Although there were some features that have been released a bit later that should of been in the game, the game is just awesome. I would have reviewed this near release but I was too hooked on the game forgot about the reviews. Highly recommend to those who just want a simple game to just kick back.

    Experiencing my first animal crossing game during a pandemic what's the perfect time to be introduced to the series. With it's insanely cute characters and all around relaxing gameplay I am having a wonderful time sculpting and created in my personal and relaxation. Highly recommended to all ages

    Bought this for my 7 year old. She loves the game and how it keeps evolving as she plays. The game has updated content with ever patch usually. I had to buy another copy so her sister could play with her. So if you have more than one child, I might suggest you go with a digital copy in that case. They can play on the same island with local play for free. Otherwise, if they want to play online with friends, then you do have to pay for Nintendo Online. Not as expensive as the other consoles though, $20 per year single account or $35 per year for family.

    Got this for my mom along with the console. I would definitely recommend getting this for older folks just make sure they have people to play with as its not really a solo playable game but can be. Then you will end up getting it for your aunts and uncles as well

    I’ve been playing this game since it’s release. It’s been the best game to relax with and the community is so kind. It’s amazing how creative you can get with you island design with limited items. I am hoping for more items like the acpc game on mobile. Totally recommending it to everyone!

    Animal Crossing: New Horizons is a fantastic game. Very calming to play and it’s so fun. Collecting everything and making this island exactly what I want it to be is the best thing ever. It is a little slow to start due to the games mechanics but for those that it might bother, there is a way around that.

    This is a great game for kids or adults. It’s not fast pace and you can pick up where you left off at any time. You should join FB group to learn more about the game and search ACNH online to find out all the things you can do. It’s an endless game.

    I never got too hooked into an Animal Crossing game before, but after watching several videos I decided to get it and absolutely did not regret it. I was surprised to find when an hour went by when I had not done much in the game, but because it was so enjoyable I could spend hours on it without knowing.

    This is my first game from the Animal Crossing franchise and I absolutely love it! The freedom of customization is endless. I got this game on the physical release day and I’ve got 400+ hours on it. I never get tired of it and it’s definitely helped me during this quarantine! Definitely recommend it!!

    This is probably the second best animal crossing game i have played. great features are being able to live in 1 town with your family and play together, loads of things to do, and they fixed things like running around doesn't destroy the grass after time. some cons are no split screen with multiple players, and compared to the 3ds version i liked when all the shops were on a different street instead of taking up space in your town. Also, there are things missing but they might be added to the game in upcoming patches, Mini games you can play with others would be my number one priority i hope it will be added in.

    Great game 4 & half star better than good and not quite perfect.i played "Wild World", "City Folk" and "New Leaf". Each new version feels better to me. I have played this game for 9 months almost daily. I am starting to feel tired of it as there is only so much crafting before tedium sets in. New season or holiday... new crafting items. There is less a feeling of accomplishing anything. I have a lot of items in storage and tons of bells. All I have left to do is fill my bugs, fish and shellfish slots...last couple and put the last touches to my island. PS I miss Brewster.

    Just buy it. You've heard nothing but great things and they're all true. This is great for beginners to the Animal crossing franchise or fans or the older games. There's always something to do, villagers to meet and events/activities to keep you active day after day.

    Bought this for my daughter (20 years old...lol) and she absolutely loves it. This is the only thing that keeps her off of her phone. Just finished school and needed a well deserved break and now she wants me to play with her. Mother approved, non-violent game. I would recommend this to everyone.

    All I can say is my husband should have never bought me this game. It’s addicting (: best game purchase ever! Keeps you busy for hours. I like how you can’t lose items like in Star Dew, but it’s set in real time which is sometimes frustrating if you want an at your own pace game and not a day by day game.

    I have been loyal to the Animal Crossing franchise since Wild World, and New Horizons is the newest and best game yet. With a lot of us being stuck at home, New Horizons definitely helps (with me, at least) temporarily escape the bad news going on in the world and makes me feel more sane in my own home.

    My brother, sister, and a ton of my friends got this game they all love it and have been playing non stop since they got a copy! Ive been playing since wild world and I'd definitely recommend. Even if you haven’t played the series before there are plenty of things to do and I'm positive you will love it.
