    Great Family Game but Understand Progression Early

    At first, I thought this game was pretty lame as I attempted to play it with my 8 and 6 year old daughters. And then, after shelving it for a few months, I saw a YouTube video on how to advance the game which included converting your tent to a house and expanding it further, building tools, recruiting animals to the island, placing and planting cool stuff, which lead to many new visitors and tasks. So we pulled the game back out and now we love it so much I bought this second copy so the kids can visit each other on their own two unique islands. I have an island resident on both islands and love to spend some relaxing time hanging out and doing lots of fishing for the museum (yep there is a museum that you can donate fossils, fish, bugs, sea creatures and paintings too…and that’s just what I’ve seen so far). Also, time impacts many events and island dwellers so it’s fun to log on often and see what’s available to have fun with. Can’t go wrong with this game if you spend a little time understanding how the progression works.

    We have always been a fan of animal crossing since the game cube days. This game is the best since the first. We love the gameplay, the crafting, and customization. It actually works great for a reading tool for your younger kids. My son is 7 and reading the dialogue a little above his level so he's getting some good reading practice in.

    I bought this game for my teenage son. Since he got it, he has been playing it non-stop. I have observed him playing it and am very impressed by the graphics and game play. If you are looking for something to keep your kids busy during these challenging times of social distancing, you can't go wrong with this game.

    It’s awesome. Best part is being able to connect with lots of players. Buy their designs. Some of the designs are so unique they really make the game more fun. Finding things to DIY that are unexpected, like Goth items and tomb stones. We were able to make a spooky graveyard. No end. I made an “ amusement park” So much fun.

    Surprisingly a lot of fun!! So much to do. Might seem a little slow 1st day.. but picks up when you start upgrading your house, visiting others online, designing your own clothes.. lots of stuff!! Definitely takes your mind away for a bit with an easy distraction like picking weeds or selling fruit. Lots of fun!!

    This is my sons game. He loves it. It follows your real time. So the clock on the game is your actual time. When it’s dark in real life, it’s dark on the game. It’s a game that you slowly gather tools and skills to allow you to do more and more as you go. You don’t have to eat or drink for your character to stay alive, but you do fish a lot.... you then sell your fish for money. In addition to money you can make “Miles” in the game. You can use the Miles to fly to other islands. There you take whatever you can hold in your storage, then fly back to your island and sell your things to the little shop on your island. You can also buy things with your Miles. Miles are harder to get. You also are charged for your house and have to pay back loans. This is actually a good learning experience for all kids playing this game. They also use some big words during the game...as it seems on purpose to teach kids words...(knowing that the parent will help them read the screen). Overall, this is a good game and I would recommend it to all. This game was sold out in all the stores and we had to order it to be mailed to us. Hope this helps you decide.

    Its such a great game, took me a while to get into it at first since this is my first time playing any animal crossing game. But its so much fun, I feel like you have so much things to do that it never gets boring, plus every month offers different types of events as well so you have something new to look forward to.

    We loved this game! It's great for some relaxing foraging and exploration, and decorating your space is a lot of fun. Only downside was not getting to have a new island for each player.

    It’s a great little game that my kids won’t atop playing. The only knock is that when playing together on a single Switch players 2-4 are very limited in what they can do which is a bit of a disappointment. You also have one island that everyone on the Switch shares even if you log in solo. On one hand it’s nice to help them progress the island since mine are younger and likely wouldn’t be able to on their own. On the other hand, kids are kids so they can make changes to the island you may not want. Lastly the Nintendo online experience is a bit rough as your play is interrupted every time someone joins or leaves and island. Those complaints aside it’s a super fun game!

    I've played everyday for the last 100 days - no joke. I love it...it's so fun, and its great for any and all age groups! My favorite part about this game is that its real-time, meaning however much time passes in the real world is the same as what goes by in your Animal Crossing world. The weather matches your local forecast, the seasons change and with the seasons comes new fish and bugs to catch. Its almost impossible to get bored with the growing turnip stock market and real estate debts you accrue throughout your experience in the game. The online play is great because you can play with your friends and visit their island all while maintaining social-distancing guidelines! the only unfortunate part of the animal Crossing experience is that there is only enough room on a single Switch for one island, so if you are considering purchasing for multiple children to play, you will also have to own multiple Switches and Animal Crossing games (though, I should add that you are able to have multiple characters to play on one island, but each account will have to take turns playing the Switch). Overall, best game I've played in years!

    Purchased this game to see why it was so popular. It is a very simple game that people of all ages can play. My little ones enjoy designing their own island, fishing, and farming. We’ve also been learning about insects, bugs, fish, animals, and dinosaurs (fossils). I would recommend this game, even though I feel it’s a bit pricey.

    I have so many things to say, but I’ll keep it short. This game amongst the other AC’s is probably one of my favorites. It’s just a beautiful game, there’s so many ways to be creative with and that’s one of the reasons why I love it so much. If you haven’t already you Definitely need to experience a game like this.

    As an avid gamer for over 30 years and collector I was aware of the upcoming release of Animal Crossing New Horizons but it wasn't on my list to get on release day. Though, after the recommendation from my son, reviews and the Animal Crossing community, I went ahead and picked it up. That choice was well worth it. During the current world issues and our struggling times where many people are stuck at home this game has been a savior and it can even help relieve some stress and anxiety, if that's something you struggle with, I do. It's very addictive and It has become a game that I don't want to put it down, but since it's based on real time clock it makes it okay to do so, so you can wait for buildings to be built and materials and items to be replenished. It's also an awesome feature that you can visit friends islands, or even have other family members/users of your household all work together on improving your island. Only one island per switch, so I can see why Nintendo Switch Consoles are difficult to obtain at the moment. It's an excellent and well planned out game and it has become a top Nintendo Switch game hands down.

    Very fun game. I do wish they would have made it easier to visit other peoples Islands. Not many people share their dodo codes and if they do it fills up fast. The game itself is very fun tho especially when you do get to travel!
