Hours of endless entertainment

I bought this the day it came out and have played it every single day since. It is a game that you can easily spend hours on to reach your goals and experience island life. What is best about this game is that there really is no right or wrong way to play it. Everyone will have their own unique experiences and be able to share them along the way. The internet capability with this game is a great addition. Being able to visit other peoples island makes this game even more fun and enjoyable. I highly recommend this to people who have enjoyed playing The Sims and like on going and relaxing game play.

Relaxing Time Sink

This game is a great change of pace from other games I usually play. The atmosphere is relaxed with no time limits or deadlines as you build your island paradise into a thriving community at your own pace. It's great to sit back and work on my island collecting Pears or wood, or going fishing looking for new species on the island. I can even go and dig for fossils to stock the island's museum. The game is relaxing, but not without goals to work towards. The only downside I have encountered so far is the UI for buying and selling items - it can be very repetitive going through the same dialogue for each sale whilst trying to save up some money for a larger house.

Animal Crossing: New Horizons (for Nintendo Switch) Review

If Nintendo games were board games, Mario Kart would be a run-around-the-board game like Sorry. Mario Party would be a control-the-board game like Monopoly. And Animal Crossing, the company's adorable life sim, would be a bonsai tree. As a series, Animal Crossing ignores many common video game aspects, such as competition and challenge, letting specific goals float in the background as you simply enjoy and interact with your environment. It’s one of the most relaxing, friendly game series there is, and Animal Crossing: New Horizons ($59.99) for the Nintendo Switch is no different. It adds some new features like crafting to the mix, but it still offers the same low-pressure, Zen-like experience of its predecessors.Not a Particularly Deserted Island Instead of moving to a new town, Animal Crossing: New Horizons puts you on a “deserted” island. You’re a customer of Nook Inc.’s Deserted Island Getaway Package, where you and two random animal friends settle on an uninhabited island. Th...

Animal Crossing: New Horizons brings the most laid-back game series ever to the Nintendo Switch, putting you on a desert island where you can just chill out, fish, catch bugs, and decorate.

Very relaxing; Lots of customization options for the island and your home; Plenty of activities and reasons to come back every day
