    The game is fun, you'll be surprised with the amount of hours you can spend playing it but it's not for everyone.

    Lots of fun, but not for sharing

    There's lots of fun things to do in the game and it's wonderful as a single player experience, but not so much if you have multiple kids. You can only create one island per Console. Each child cannot create their own island unless they have their own Switch and another copy of the game. Once an island is created all children share it, they don't start fresh with their own experience. With multiple players, one is always the leader, the others are limited in what they can do. e.g. The leader can enter buildings. Overall, great for just one player.

    Waited for a long time for the next installment in Animal Crossing and this game deliver! Getting lost in daily routine on my island is a welcoming respite from my busy days and become an addiction; working now on getting the third star to start terraforming. Really well done Nintendo!!!

    I’ve been an avid Animal Crossing fan for so long and this has fed my hunger for AC. This game has a lot of potential in these upcoming months with updates to the game and especially holiday updates! You can have fun with your friends by going to their island of have a party on your own!

    it is one of the greatest game that i got. I can't stop playing with it. You can have a family in the same island, but have to take turn and login to different account to play, can't play together. You can go visit friends. Great game to stay connect with friend during the pandamic.

    I purchased this game to be able to play with my daughter and go visit her island as she has her own Switch and game. OMG I haven’t been able to stop playing to the point I have passed my daughter’s progress. LOL she keeps telling me I am addicted to this game. I guess that’s true:-)

    If you've played Animal Crossing before this game takes all the things you liked and improves on them. If you haven't played before keep in mind this is a different sort of game. There aren't missions with a big endgame. Sure you can improve your island and your house, but really it's about relaxing in your virtual world and hanging out with your island-mates. The reason this is not 5 stars is the inability to create multiple islands on the same Switch. Creating your island is one of the best parts and it's a shame that people sharing a console can't experience that individually.

    If you've never played a game in the series, New Horizons is a great start. On the other hand, if you are already familiar with Animal Crossing, you will find a good amount of nostalgia but also pleasant little news, which will make this new adventure worthy of being lived day by day.

    Bought this game for my wife. At first this game did not look interesting at all to me, but after seeing my wife play it for a while i fell in love with it. I dont even let her play anymore. Great game, lots of things to do, and having people to play with makes this game even better.

    This game is so peaceful and serene. I have so much fun opening up presents to find some new piece of clothing or furniture! It’s so exciting, even the little stuff. You can play with friends and you can get screwed over by Tom Nook and get tricked into indentured servitude! I love it!

    The villagers’ personalities are really toned down, compared to past entries, but I’ve enjoyed my time with the game. The collecting and customization allowed for many hours of gameplay. I’ll just wait and see if there are any more major updates.

    This is going to be my second Animal Crossing game. The amount of things they added in the game was unbelievable. I don’t want to state what it is, as it can spoil some gameplay to people. I would recommend this as during quarantine times, you have something to look forward the next day.

    Amazing game with unlimited possibilities for play. New updates are coming out all the time. If you pair this with Nintendo Switch Online, you can visit your friends' islands or have them come to yours. A great way to stay connected while everyone is social distancing.
