    Fun game with plenty of things to do and discover. The details and graphics are stunning; the characters cute and amusing. This game brings out one's creative side in developing an island community. Give and receive little gifts, design and furnish your own home/landscaping as well as those of the other inhabitants, collect resources needed for crafting tools, furnishings and fashion accessories, achieve goals. Well worth the money. If you are looking for a relaxing game to escape into, this is one of the best.

    I've been playing Animal Crossing since the Gamecube, so it's cool to see it out again with more awesome features. My kids love it as well.

    I've played the original Animal Crossing on the GameCube back in the day and probably lost over a full year of my life playing that one... Now this comes out and does everything right. They are always adding updates to the game to keep it interesting. There are times if you play ALL the time you may find yourself repeating a lot of tasks. My daughter loves it and has a really good time playing two player with me. Highly suggested if you enjoy simulator type games like SIMS, Stardew Valley, Harvest Moon, Etc.

    This game is everything I hoped it would be. It's got fun/cute characters, calming music, wonderful atmosphere, and a whole lotta charm. If you're a fan of previous Animal Crossing games, or just looking for a good stress reliever, this game is 100% for you. Obviously this game looks so much better than any previous game in the series, and there is just so much to keep you busy. I can see myself playing this yet in a couple years. By far one of the best releases for Switch to date. I wholly recommend this game to anyone interested.

    I haven’t played Animal Crossing since New Leaf, but I used to play that religiously as a child. While this one is definitely different, I still really love it! Building your own island from the ground up is pretty cool! And it was released at the best time to allow me to really go all in. Stay safe and socially distance!

    I had never played animal crossing in the past I was familiar with the franchise but it never interested me. After seeing a lot of people posting stuff online I decided to get the game, I've been hooked. I actually had to buy two copies because my six year old stole my first copy. Each system get one island layout. You decide where you are going to build houses and stores. You have many opportunities to do tasks to get the in game currency to build up your island. It's a simple mindless game with hours upon hours of play time.

    Best Investment I've made. Whole family plays everyday. My only disappointment is that the game only allows one island per Switch.

    An improved classic

    This game has all the classic features of animal crossing with new mechanics like crafting and terraforming. The customization of your island paradise is limitless. The game plays in real time, which can be frustrating to those not used to it. Some bugs/fish only become available during certain times and completion of buildings will make you wait until the following day irl. Despite these things, Animal Crossing: New Horizon is a wholesome and fulfilling game. Very down to Earth and casual, and now you can play with friends too!

    This game is for anyone who just wants to wind down, sit back, and have a relaxing time playing games without explosions and shooting and what not. You simply start on a deserted island with some other villagers, and you work your way up to building your own desired civilization. The customization options are endless, and the feeling you get when you accomplish an in game goal is what makes the game great. I’d recommend this to anyone looking for a fun laid back game.

    Escape to a deserted island and create your own paradise as you explore, create, and customize in Animal Crossing: New Horizons. Your island getaway has a wealth of natural resources that can be used to craft everything from tools to creature comforts. You can hunt down insects at the crack of dawn, decorate your paradise throughout the day, or enjoy sunset on the beach while fishing in the ocean. The time of day and season match real life, so each day on your island is a chance to check in and find new surprises all year round.

    I've never heard of Animal Crossing until my Instagram feed and twitter feed was full of screenshots of the game so I had to see what it was all about. I instant fell in love with the game. Very easy to play and I'm not a huge gamer myself. I even got my other friends to play too! (We are all in our late twenties lol) That's the thing about this game, it can be for anyone! Honestly, I would love to say so much about this incredible life changing game but I don't want to spoil the fun for the others! Highly recommend!

    This game is a life simulator from doing everyday task to build your island from cutting down trees, fishing, upgrading your stores and getting people to live on you island. This game is slow paced but very rewarding when you put your time in your island. This game cannot be beat it needs to be taken 1 day at a time, i usually play about an hour a day maybe a bit more it depends on whats going on in my island. Its a fun life simulator can even be played with your friends that also have the game but its still good by yourself.

    I bought this game because there was so much hype around it. After I got it, I understood. Being able to fully customize and create your own island from scratch is very fun. Time passes so quickly when playing but you don’t even realize it because it is so fun. In the first week of having animal crossing I had 70 hours of play time. I didn’t even think I was playing that long. Finding your dream villagers, playing with friends and seeing others islands are what makes the game as great as it is. It is just so cute too.

    I have over 1000 hours in this game. It got me through the worst time of my life after losing both my best friend and a close family member. There are endless opportunities to customize and decorate, fish and bugs to collect, fun holidays/events, and the villagers almost start to feel like actual friends after a while with all their unique personalities. Nothing but good vibes in this game.

    My wife loves it she’s always playing it w our son he also loves it. I never played it but they love it 10/10 they both have separate accounts too it’s good because my son actually likes it and this game stimulates his brain bc he has to read and carry out task in the game and helps him understand problems as well as problem solve

    Since the start of the pandemic, this game has been the glue that held my social circle together. It has allowed me, friends, and family to stay connected on the phone while we do nice favors for eachother in Animal Crossing. We can even get closer than 6 feet in the game!! I love Animal Crossing, and this is coming from someone who thought it would be for kids. It's the ultimate life simulator, and is extremely easy to play. Classic Nintendo, making an extremely user friendly and fun to play game. Definitely a must own
