A chillax and enjoyable game - no regrets - just destress!

Reviewed in Australia on 27 March 2020

If you enjoy playing something that's relaxing and at a pace. This is the game for you.

Very relaxing and enjoyable to just be on an island and chill and do some stuff. As well as you can have other players come to your island via online and what not.

Limitless hours of fun haaha.

My only critique is that my game was delivered with no plastic covering and it seemed somewhat slightly damaged, so it does make me wonder about the product I've received. However, so far into a few days, nothing's gone wrong. So it's all good! :)

Disgusting and deceptive.

Reviewed in Australia on 28 April 2020

The game has an island limit per console. Which means theres no way you can share the experience with friends or family unless they own thier own copy of the game and console.

The biggest problem i have with this limit though is what do i do when i've gathered everything? I cant start a new game and do things differently or explore different creative ideas. Because if i do that I destroy all my progress simply to do something different!

The game also doesnt do anything trumendously new to previous versions either. We dont see new biomes or greater interactivity with the items.

After only 2 days of playing this game I am disappointed and disgusted. Dont buy into the hype that is sweeping across social media.

Sucks if you're sharing your switch.

The game itself is fine. The problem is, you can't play it separately if another person is using your switch. I got the switch and game for myself. But I have a small brother and he wanted to play as well. But the game put him on my island as a new resident instead of giving him his own island. This just ruins it for the both of us. He can't experience being the resident representative or starting fresh on his new island. And I have to share my space and resources with him. That's just so stupid. It says that to move to a new island we have to have a new switch AND a new game. I have to pay 460 dollars MORE just so he can have an island? This is not a cheap game. This feature just sucks. I don't want to share my own island, which is the whole purpose, in a game that I paid a lot of money for but I'm not gonna not let my little brother play as well. Hated it.

This game is tedious, mundane, incredibly slow, and unbearably boring. It exploits human psychology to create an unhealthy addiction in a similar fashion to certain mobile games. There are thousands of items in the game but you can't interact with any of them, and the game is full of poor design choices and restrictions that prevent you from playing at your own pace. You'll be doing the same thing over and over again. However, if yoy enjoy wasting your time doing pointless things, this is the game for you.

basically farmville

This is seriously a AAA Nintendo title? It's such an incredibly small world, with so little to do. It has the depth and complexity I'd expect for a cute little indie game. If this had been like $10 I would have been happy with it, but I'm annoyed I wasted $70 on this (frankly dull and pointless) little game. I can't believe this title is in the same leagues as huge masterpieces like Breath of the Wild and Mario Odyssey.

local co-op terrible

I’m so disappointed that there is no split screen local co-op. My eight year old refuses to play using the follow the leader co-op system Because it’s not fun. We all want to explore the island at the same time.

Too much of narration

Reviewed in Australia on 11 December 2020

There’s too much of narration in the game, actual play looks less, compared to the talk.

Not satisfied with the purchase.

Do I get warranty if there is a problem with it?

I couldn't believe it was not sealed with the plastic around it. It looks like a used not new product. I haven't tested it yet as I'm saving it for a Xmas present but I hope it works.
