    The Best game ever

    This is just a beautiful game, I play it everyday! It's relaxing and peaceful. It's worth it, but...beware of Zipper T...

    Mayhaps a bit too consumeristic?

    I was so excited when I got this game as a present in May of 2020! I saw a lot of the game play on YouTube and I was constantly thinking about my island. While the ease of play is nice and understandable, there are a lot of features that you would have to buy to make the experience more enjoyable, including the DLC, Amiibo Cards, and Nintendo Online. I think that having these consumeristic features in the game makes it more P2P, rather than F2P and it gives F2P players a disadvantage. Other than all of the buyable features, I really like how there is a lot to do in the game, like fishing, bug hunting, completing collections, and expanding your island. The events are also a fun touch. Overall, I would recommend this game for someone who has completionist urges.

    Masterpiece!

    This game is the definition of greatness. It consists of slow but fun gameplay.

      Became the best selling Nintendo Switch game in Japan. Within just three days, it sold 1,88 million times.
    • Goofs
      When villagers comment on piano or synthesizer furniture in their own homes or while visiting the players' house, they state they are incapable of playing them. In "Happy Home Paradise", if the player drags the villager and places him or her in front of a piano or synthesizer, they are shown to actually play these instruments.
