Got it for my gf, she ended up loving it and I enjoyed watching her play. She got it for me after than and I've enjoyed it since. We even play together online/local and visit each other's island. For example tonight is shooting stars so even though she's won't be in the physical space with me tonight she'll come to my island and we'll get some star fragments! great game, for everyone.
At its most basic level, you could say it's somewhat similar to any city builder game.

Can someone please explain the appeal of this game? I hear players pouring hundreds of hours into this game and it blows my mind.

Same here lol. I have a friend who loves it and tried to get me playing back on the game cube. Not for me.

Great price!

I'd love a deal on the Happy Home Paradise expansion pack too.

Definitely get physical so you can sell/trade later. Any digital game buy is a sunk cost
Digital avoids the cartridge being sunk down the toilet by my toddler or chewed up by dog.

Each has their benefits.

I was a late adopter to the switch, I decided to give AC a shot since my friends have it and enjoy it. I didn't really expect much out of it. I have put over 200 hours in the game in less than 3 months, LOL. If you enjoy sim city like games you probably will like it, I also think minecraft players will enjoy it also. I used to play those games.

I'm sorry to hear you never learned how to read. You're missing out on a great game.
It's a shame they won't be able to read that sick burn you just inflicted on them.

I played it on my sister's Switch once. It all looks very cute, but I don't know what the long term motivation would be there.

I waited patiently for 26 months for the digital to go on sale for $40. Thanks OP!

Is this still 1 island per switch?
