    Very fun game but you can only create one island, so if you have multiple people that play your switch you're all in the same world.

    I've played AC titles since the first North American release on the Gamecube. This game really blows the others out of the water in a lot of ways, and it's also incredibly relaxing and calming to play. At the beginning you'll have a lot to do and a lot of little milestones that will get you feeling connected to your islanders and your island; once you get deep into the game, it becomes more about making your own fun and getting creative with designing and decorating your house and island. I put over 600 hours into the game before I decided I needed a break

    WOW there’s SOOO much of a difference between NH and New Leaf, especially compared to the jump from Wild World to NL. This game is gorgeous (look at the water!!), there’s so much to do and I’m excited to play every day. Granted I’m only a few days into the game and there’s a lot to unlock, but a lot of time can be spent peacefully doing daily tasks. There are a lot of features that have been added and improved since New Leaf, and the game doesn’t suffer from the lack of a second screen. It also plays very well on the Switch Lite. Get this to help you survive your isolation :’)

    This, like all other Animal Crossing games of the past, captures Nintendo charm to the utmost. What a fun little game that never overstays it’s welcome. This is something you can play from 15 to 40 minutes a day, max, and it will fulfill everything you need it to. It’s just adorable and I challenge the most hardened gamer to not smile when playing this delightful game. Highly recommended.

    I have been using animal crossing video games as a therapeutic outlet ever since I got animal crossing wild world in 2005, when I was five. It makes me so happy to see how far the franchise has come in terms of how beautiful the graphics are, plans on in-game free updates for three years, and always keeping it interesting but familiar. A few drawbacks are the lack of previous furniture collections and old characters are missing!! But besides those, this game makes up for it in so many other ways and we can always wait to see what they come up with next :) thank u acnh <3

    This game takes everything I love about previous AC games and adds things I never expected. More realism in sounds and effects make gameplay incredible. The storyline is great, and once you’ve played through it, the game is still so appealing. So many additional goals exist within the game to keep your interest, which is an added bonus. I love the simplicity of fishing, harvesting resources, crafting, and designing even before considering these amazing additions. The seasonal updates are also incredible, and I look forward to seeing what’s in store as real time progresses.

    I traveled through time, I came back from the year 2024. When the resistance fighters known as humanity finally beat all the antimaskers, antivaxxers, and antiiQers, This was a key to conquering the regime that plunged our society into the neo-dark ages. AC-20 was what kept our fighting spirits up. With out Tom Nook and his sage advice of island living we would have lost all hope and joined all the antiiQers. Thankfully it turns out that tom nook was qAnon all along and took out the regime of MAGA supporters and pedos. #nfldropea. Great game btw.

    Basic similarities, but not much else like the oldie platform editions. Very addictive, yet extremely relaxed gameplay. Very impressive graphics, and everything wonderfully detailed. So much to do, and as much time as you'd like to do it. Greatest addition is terraforming abil. This allows you to reshape the landscape around you. Changing the course of rivers, and cliffs, and a whole lot more. Immersive interaction, and you can craft items,furniture, in incalculable ways. Hard to put it down. In the evening. Did I mention the breathtaking museum, that seems to have no end?

    For the record, I’ve never played an Animal Crossing game in my life until my girlfriend who grew up playing Animal Crossing wanted New Horizon. What started as me watching her play quickly turned into her watching me play. Fast forward after one week of getting hooked and playing and now we’re buying another Nintendo Switch and another copy of Animal Crossing: New Horizon to play together! I grew up playing Call of Duty and Battlefield, this was not the game I was expecting to love but I absolutely love it. It’s such a friendly, beautiful and peaceful game for all ages.

    This game is really relaxing. I am a guy who loves FPS, RPG, and sports game. I never really play these casual games. The concept is simple build your own island, but their is so many ways you can do that and plenty to do to achieve your dream. Some task are repetitive, but I enjoy it and find this game to be relaxing and not drilling me to finish a mission or kill a boss. The graphics are great and you can really make your character your own. Their is lots to learn and do and I am a fan of this series now. Have to head back now my island is waiting. Stop by any time!

    I’ve played all previous iterations of Animal Crossing, and while some of my favorite features have come and gone, as all game series, this embodies animal crossing well. Shy of a few very old features, and, at the time of writing this review, some main characters and items, this game is the combination of all other previous games, with new features, gimmicks, and villagers to love. Whilst distinctly different, it’s enjoyable, and still feels very much like an animal crossing game. I definitely recommend this game to any and everyone; especially during this quarantine.

    I've played animal crossing since new leaf. New horizons really steps up the game. Although there is not a lot of tutorial content (I can't bring Isabelle sea shells :/ ) Animal crossing does compensate with seasonal events and crafting recipes. And on the topic of crafting- some of it is tedious and repetitive. You'll be crafting basic tools often- unless you want to spend 2500 bells at nook's- and there is no indication when your tool will break. Otherwise, the graphics are pleasant (plants blow in the wind!) and it is very exciting to start up a new town!!

    This is hands down one of the most charming and relaxing games I’ve ever played. From the moment you arrive on your deserted island, the world feels like a peaceful escape. The graphics are adorable, the music is soothing, and the attention to detail in everything—from seasons to character interactions—is incredible.

    This is the second game that I got for my Nintendo Switch Lite after Mario and I am really enjoying it and having a great time learning what to do and how to customize my island. This is my first time playing Animal Crossing and it was a little daunting at first cause there isn’t a whole lot of direction on what to do or how to do it but after watching a few short videos on YouTube I am really starting to understand and enjoy it more and more. The characters are cute and really like the idea behind the whole concept so I would recommend this.
