    My girlfriend has over 100 hours into the game already and I keep finding myself coming back a little bit every day to discover something new. Endless customization, cute characters and a task system that allows you to escape the every day toils.

    This game is addicting! It is so much fun building your own town and making bridges and decorating your house. Visiting other islands in search of new things or towns people is the best! There are SO MANY things you can do in this game.

    If you like animal crossing, you'll probably love this as well. Nice graphics, more ability to change your whole town inside and out. Seems so far to keep all of the things I have enjoyed in past AC games, adding new activities like DIY crafting.

    Relaxing Game to Spend Countless Hours On

    I logged many hours on this game, while making socially-distance memories with friends via online. The cute aesthetic brings you back, but I do know many people have dropped off due to lack of rewarding gameplay after doing the same thing for months. I preordered this game via Best Buy, in which they offered the $10 preorder bonus, which was nice. This was also the first game I had shipped instead of in-person due to the pandemic. There were no damages during shipping.

    This game took up a lot of my time and I know many of you have lots of time on your hands right now and why not use that time to play one of the best switch games out there that is easy for anyone to Understand and get a grasp of pretty easily.

    The person I got the game for absolutely loves the game. She got lost it in for quite a while with all the things you can collect and that you can only collect specific items during certain times of the day.

    This game is very engaging and a good distraction on what is going on in the world right now. In this game, you create a community in your island. Overall, fun, entertaining, and charming game. (Real time is being used to progress your island)

    This is my daughters favorite game! She loves that she can design her own clothes in this game which encourages her creativity and imagination. Another thing she loves is that she can go fishing and sell the fish in this game

    If you are a switch on her chances are you ready know everybody is currently playing Animal Crossing New Horizons Because of COVID-19 and that people are trying to find ways to communicate in some form I’ve been playing animal Crossing since I was about nine years old starting with the second game (which was the first game outside Japan) that came out on the GameCube while my family and I stayed all by my grandmothers for hurricane Katrina and Rita. It’s a nice way to help kill time and I’ve been a fan since then. The only problem I have with this is that you have to have a Nintendo Switch Online subscription to get custom designs that you can’t find QR codes for online. I understand that for online multiplayer to visit peoples islands makes sense, but really? You have to have an online subscription just to download custom designs?

    It is a fun and relaxing game. Best way to describe it is like the Sims and Minecraft but you need to gather resources to build things and to create your own island paradise. It even has some nice dad jokes in it when you catch a bug or fish.

    This is truly one of the greatest games ever played. From the minute you first pick a sweet sweet pear to the final scene as you and your comrades celebrate your victory over the old world this game made me stand up and say viva la revolucion.

    Game is super fun, lots to do. Teaches kids to be responsible, teaches kids to stick to tasks, and pay off your debt. Lots of crafting and fun for all ages. Did not think I was gonna like it but my kids got me into it. Love the calm atmosphere.

    This is my second copy of this game, so I can have a second island on my Switch Lite. I adore this game and it is nice to have a physical copy. Good for all ages, and the new updates are amazing.

    My sister has picked up this game and won’t put it down. Like- not even kidding- it’s been days. She hasn’t come out of her room. She sustains herself on peaches and prays to some man named Tom Nook. Family destroying, wholesome fun and fishing.

    We bought this for my daughter but the whole family likes to play. It is just one main island, but if you're okay with that and work together then it's still pretty fun. Would still rather have the option to have our own islands though.

    Had heard great things about this game and how it was helping a lot of people deal with the stress from the pandemic. My island is still far from any of the ones I’ve seen, but I am enjoying this while staying put. Not just for kids :)
