    I hopped on the ACNH train when my friend was telling me how much she loved the game. I tried pocket camp before and it just want for me. I’ve never played any other AC games before so I was worried I wouldn’t like ACNH. I’m so glad I was wrong I LOVE the game and am so happy I made the purchase!

    At first I was inbetween on if I should get this game, but friends all convinced me and I'm so glad they did. This game is endless fun with cool new characters being introduced throughout the game. There is always something to take care of on your island and endless ways to do it! Highly recommend!

    I bought this game after seeing a video about it. I love the way it sucks you in with tasks and keeps you interested to the point you have to force yourself to stop playing. Very simple controls. easy to learn.

    Bought for my daughter along with a Switch Lite and she loves it. Really wanted to Nintendo Switch but it is not available anywhere during quarantine in my area. Will buy the regular Switch once it is available again. My daughter loves playing Animal Crossing together with her friends online.

    First Animal Crossing I’ve ever played, but I now see why people like them. Nice to just wander around, gather materials, and arrange your island. It’s very easy to learn, and beyond that, there’s no real lose condition. It’s about the most chill game that could exist. Also, it’s relentlessly cute.

    I have played Animal Crossings for over a year and have enjoyed the learning about how to play with a relaxed effort. If you run into a problem, just go to YouTube or Google and problem solved. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS GAME FOR ANY AGE!!!

    The game is amazing and I recommend it. My kiddo loves it and I've played it a bit myself and enjoy it. What I should have investigated is that buying a second copy of the game does not give you a "new" island. All of your created toons "share" an island. I knew this but assumed if I purchased a second copy we would have...well...a second copy of the game. That is not the case. All of the info is tied to the switch apparently. We gave this copy away. So dont buy it if you want a second island. It does not work that way. The game is good though.

    Today it is so hard to find a good kids game that you don't need to monitor a whole lot. I believe this is one of them.

    I'll start off by saying that the only con to this would probably be the online experience (due to the way its set up). It is still loads of fun though. This is by far the best game to pass the time and ease your mind. If you love to collect items and build a dream island, this game is for you.

    A game that takes up real life time. If you upgrade your house, you have to wait till the next day or so for it to upgrade. Same goes for if you’ve unlocked stores such as Nooks cranny, and the museum. You need an online membership to hang out with others though. Very fun. Cute customizations.

    I won't lie, I got harrased into buying this game by a couple of friends and went in expecting to hate it. After playing it for a couple hours though, I can honestly say the simple novelty of Animal Crossing is some of the most fun I've had with a Nintendo game since Breath of the Wild.

    I played Animal Crossing many years again and was uber excited to see it's return on the Switch. The game it's just as fun as I remember it. The graphics are well done. Colors are vibrant. It is a really pretty game. If you were an AC fan years ago and are on the fence about getting this, get it!

    This Game Is Everything I Wanted And More

    First off, I was introduced to the Animal Crossing games through Animal Crossing: City Folk. I played that game religiously, as much as a kid could in a given day. When I heard about Animal Crossing coming out with a new game on a console that could be played on the TV again (sorry DS games) in HD, I immediately got a switch and pre-ordered the game. I have been playing it for roughly a month now, and I can confidently say it has been so. much. fun. The first few days of play are the hardest to get through, I admittedly had a little "animal crossing burnout" from the lack of things to do. If you can get through this, the game becomes more interactive, immersive, and fun. I genuinely could spend days on this game if I had the luxury to. My little brother also plays, and has somehow managed to put more hours on the game than I have. Overall, this game is great for everyone- young, old, gamers, non-gamers, animal crossing followers and those who are new to the franchise. You cannot go wrong with this game.

    Animal crossing is just an awesome franchise, period. It's one of the best sims out there with all the various activities, hidden touches, and zany characters. This will keep you busy for hours and hours by hooking you in and not letting go. Definitely recommend for anyone who owns a Switch.

    I've been playing Animal Crossing since City Folk, and this is a great game to get your mind off of the pandemic that is going on. This game has even pulled in a lot of new players. I really enjoyed the new things that they added in the game, but I feel like it is much easier now to earn bells.
