### 3/5 — Widget update issue

*2026-08-27, version 7.1.4*

Updated to the latest version and the widget is no longer compatible with Liquid Glass :( please help!!

### 2/5 — Boring now

*2026-08-24, version 7.1.2*

I really loved this game, I first got it when it was still free manyy years ago and I played regularly up until the paid version released. I didn’t mind paying for it though the price is imo too expensive, because I had hopes that this meant the game will be better with many new things coming. That’s what I hoped for. It’s boring and repetitive and I don’t really bother anymore as all the content is just recycled, same items no new activities or events and no further new additions to the game. I do think there are benefits to the offline version but I do miss having the ability to make friends and help each other, visit campsites etc. This game has gone downhill and there is no care to make new exciting additions anymore like it used to in the unpaid version, which doesn’t make sense at all. Now for paying for it, there should be at least the same or even more effort put into the game. While it will still be exciting for new players it will very quickly lose interest if nothing changes.

### 4/5 — Nice buuuuuuuut…..

*2026-08-23, version 7.1.2*

This game is a pretty good animal crossing Pocket Camp C game. The old one I used to have seven years ago was honestly the same as this one but it wasn’t complete and I only got seven years of it because for some reason my games just die after seven years so that was fun, but but this is a really good game if you wanna play animal Crossing but the thing is you just gotta be careful because sometimes they don’t always work and allowing this game to have your photos is a bit personal but otherwise this is a really good game and I recommend you playing it but there are no ads but sometimes you just gotta be a bit careful with who you’re giving info to

### 3/5 — Nice

*2026-08-23, version 7.1.2*

It’s very similar if not exact to OG Pocket Camp. I’m devastated that I have to start over and didn’t receive any kind of warning about having to same my data. I wish I had email notifications on or something. So far the game makes me sad; I see all the items I used to have but now have to work towards again….

### 3/5 — Just Ok

*2026-08-13, version 7.1.2*

More taken away than added, Whistle Pass is cute and it’s nice to see the friends we once had and receiving a gift a day and 2 attempts at shovel strike quarry.  Unfortunately everyone who said good bye in their names before the online game ended will always have that name.  Shovel Strike Quarry should offer maps instead of crafting material, most ends up getting sold instead of excess going into the mailbox.  What happened to My Nintendo points?  Why was the HH for Events and Fortune Cookies taken away?  Why weren’t the empty spots where friend’s campers were filled with a couple trees.  Why can’t the Friends at Whistle Pass give the fruit we did not get, the lemons, grapes or lychee or this trees given to everyone while filling up the empty spots?  The first Garden event, only a few flower seeds were given, not like before, had to buy seeds several times.  Since there is no competition between friends during the fishing tourney, why can’t the golden pole be purchased instead of rented? After 6 of the 7 years I’ve played this game, I would rather see more crafting supply maps than bells/mega bells maps.  Understandable there may be new players or some who played online may have started fresh but for those who just continued the bells maps really aren’t needed while the crafting materials are to send off Gulliver’s Ship would be used more.  Also all auto trek of the maps should have the ability to be purchased with bells.  I can see this game getting boring fast like the other versions.

Update: after close to 2 years of the game being taken offline & going as a stand alone game it is just a repeat of the prior years.  All events are what was already played over the years.  No extra storage.  It would be nice if they would at least take overage of supplies...wood, steel, cotton, paper & preserves & give us maps to use later instead of automatically sell.  It's rare to get maps now.

### 4/5 — Great game but can be a little annoying

*2026-08-09, version 7.1.2*

Love the game, but hated the unskippable gameplay scenes. Cute

### 5/5 — ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

*2026-08-07, version 7.1.2*

It is awesome!!!!! I’ve been playing it for a long time and I love it

### 4/5 — Camp

*2026-08-06, version 7.1.2*

Oh, I love this game but I don’t like why the animals talk to you so much so this game got a four star rate

### 2/5 — Duuuuuuuuuuuuuuuude

*2026-08-04, version 7.1.2*

Please please add SpongeBob furniture please 🙏 I beg you to add SpongeBob furniture

### 2/5 — Lost all my save data…

*2026-08-03, version 7.1.2*

ACPC was my introduction to the Animal Crossing franchise and I played it from its release in 2017 up until it was shut down in 2024. I obviously bought complete to continue playing and transfer my data but ended up deleting the app temporarily to make more space on my phone. I only found out afterwards that deleting the app eventually deletes all your save data as well. I can’t lie I’m truly devastated to have lost almost 8 years of gameplay and just can’t understand why a *paid* version of the game is formatted like this even when you’re logged in through your nintendo account… Not sure I’ll play it again since I would have to start from scratch, just confused as to why they set up the app this way :(

### 5/5 — Cool game

*2026-08-02, version 7.1.2*

I love it … and it’s right on my iPhone!

### 4/5 — So fun

*2026-07-28, version 7.1.2*

However we really need more item space on campsites. Work so hard for all the items and can’t even make camp how we want with the item limit of 100. The new option to have code pathing eats it up so quickly when using on a camp and it’s not fair!

### 5/5 — 무책임한 데이터 저장시스템을 책임지세요.

*2026-07-28*

닌텐도 계정 연동만 믿고 플레이했는데 앱을 삭제했다는 이유만으로 몇 년간 데이터와 추억이 모두 사라졌습니다. 이런 치명적인 내용을 이용자가 명확하게 인지할 수 있도록 고지하지 않은 것은 소비자를 기만한 것과 다름없습니다. 이럴 거라면 닌텐도 계정 연동은 왜 존재하는 건가요?

제 데이터를 돌려주십시오. 복구가 불가능하다면 유료결제한 금액을 환불해주세요. 무조건 데이터를 복구해줬으면 하는 바람입니다. 추억과 시간은 돈으로 살 수 없는데, 적어도 이용자의 시간과 돈, 신뢰를 잃게 만든 책임을 져야 합니다.

다시는 이 게임을 하고 싶지 않습니다. 설레는 마음으로 만들어 온 캠프를 하루아침에 없애버린 게임을 어떻게 믿고 다시 플레이할 수 있나요? 제 캠프 데이터를 다시 돌려주십시오.

### 5/5 — Friends

*2026-07-24, version 7.1.2*

This is honestly just the best game I’ve ever played because it’s like you get to make so many friends learn so many new things, but Rosie and Jay have been really kind to me(players) 100 out of 100

### 4/5 — Scratches the itch

*2026-07-23, version 7.1.2*

A couple things I would add are the ability to display bugs/fish and fossils!

### 5/5 — Love it

*2026-07-21, version 7.1.2*

I love how you just have to grind for the leaf tickets and bells and not having to pay real money for them. This new Animal Crossing update is amazing but please bring back the market place to get more bells.

### 5/5 — One of the best!

*2026-07-21, version 7.1.2*

I really love this game! I love Nintendo games and that is why I love this game! 99.9% get the game!!! The only part I don’t like is I have to delete it to get a new world!

### 1/5 — DELETES ALL PROGRESS

*2026-08-26, version 7.1.4*

years of playing this game gone because it doesn't link to your nintendo account like the previous version did. i put so much real money & time into this game because i love nintendo, animal crossing specifically. it was one of my comfort games & now i am so upset that everything is just gone.

### 1/5 — Reoccurring Charges

*2026-08-04, version 7.1.2*

This app did not tell me there was a monthly charge. Very disappointing with the surprise charges

### 1/5 — Bored

*2026-07-21, version 7.1.2*

It’s nothing like the other one

### 1/5 — コンプリート版になってから更に劣化した糞ゲー

*2026-07-10*

最初は以前プレイしていた記憶や思い出が蘇ってきて楽しかった。でも途中から死ぬ程おもんなくなり、飽きてきた。まずコンプリート版と名乗るのであればSwitch版のあつ森と同じUIにすべきだと思うし、コンプリート版以前の不満点も解消されるべきだが、それらをほったらかしにしオンライン機能、課金要素廃止、そして謎にリーフチケットからリーフストーンへの変更と微々たる差かつとにかくしょうもない変更ばかり。それ以外は以前と何ら変わりがない。Switch版や3DS版などの「箱庭ゲー」とは全く違い、本作は糞ゲー典型の「作業ゲー」。本作でやることはどうぶつと話す→素材を集める→家具を作る→どうぶつを招待するの繰り返し。これは新しい家具、住民を解放するために“99.9999%必須”の行為である。つまりゲーム側にやることを縛られている。Switch版や3DS版などのどうぶつの森の「箱庭ゲー」としての良さを自ら潰していて、単なる「作業ゲー」と化している。コンソール版なら痒いところに手が届いても、本作は痒くないところにも全く届かない。本作唯一の自由のキャンプ場作りでさえ自由の幅が狭く、コンソール版にある村づくりには全く及ばず、ゲームとしての奥深さのかけらもない。例えるなら”何もアイテムがない密閉された監禁部屋“。プレイヤーを裏切ろうとしか思えない開発思想。運営はやる気があると到底思えない。ハッピーホームアカデミーもあるが、あつ森にあるような追加コンテンツとは全く違い、必要な家具を集めレッスンを進めていくだけのただの飾り。ここまで酷いと思わなかった。あとコンプリート版になってから2000円になったのまじでカス、2000円でも完成度高ければ良かったけど、2000円の価値は全く無い、ぼったくり、ただただ作業するだけの虚無ゲー、いい加減見直すべきだしアプデ来いよ運営！あとジャスティンっていう釣り大会でたまに出てくるどうぶつがクッッッッソムカつく！堂々と盗撮してくるってどういうことやねん腹立つ
長文ですみません見てくれた方ありがとうございましたm(_ _)m

### 1/5 — Fix Brake Tapper!

*2026-07-02*

I really love this game, it deserves 5 stars. It’s a shame the Brake Tapper at OK motors doesn’t work, that’s why I’m giving it only 1 star. Maybe the devs can do something abt it

### 1/5 — Incomplete Game

*2026-06-29, version 7.1.2*

After playing for awhile, the game loses all purpose. It’s so unnecessarily difficult to level up in Happy Home Academy, earn friendship points, and earn essence.  I feel like it wouldn’t be much to have some type of online play available considering the 20 dollar price tag. I want to keep playing, but I feel stuck at  level 211 now. There really isn’t a point in buying unless they somehow balance out the “complete” version of the game

### 1/5 — This app does not work offline. 100% fail.

*2026-06-20, version 7.1.2*

If you’re interested in purchasing an app for your child to use offline, say for long trips etc, this isn’t it. It’s been an absolute fail for our needs unfortunately. Can’t comment on the game itself as it hasn’t functioned long enough to really know.

### 1/5 — Charged without even signing in

*2026-06-18, version 7.1.2*

Anyone else get charged over $20 without even signing into the app yet???

### 1/5 — please fix

*2026-06-17, version 7.1.2*

please fix the login i lost 10+ of data and limited collab items and stuff i paid real money for that i will never be able to get back please let me log into my account it says when i log in that no data can be transferred is all my years of data just gone because my phone deleted the game??? this is ridiculous

### 1/5 — Game is not truly complete.

*2026-06-04, version 7.1.2*

This game is not truly complete. They did not include all of the academy classes from the original game, so anyone who buys this game to start playing it will never realistically be able to complete the academy. It would take roughly 38 years which is totally unrealistic and unfair.

### 5/5 — The best game ever!

*2026-08-27, version 7.1.4*

This is the best game. I think I’m addicted in this game yup this is the best game ever!

### 5/5 — My favorite game ever!

*2026-08-25, version 7.1.2*

I play animal crossing on my switch all the time and it’s such a fun game! And I love games like calm happy games where u can just run around and collect stuff rather than fighting bad guys and stuff like that so I saw this and I bought and it was so worth it! I love that there is a motor home and u can decorate it and I love picking out things to craft! And if u love Animal crossing I definitely recommend this! And also u can go to different islands and make new friends (animals) and ur friend ship levels up and u can get certain things for leveling up ur friend ships! This game is absolutely worth and I definitely recommend thanks for reading my review! 💖😜

### 5/5 — I love this BUT it needs updated please!

*2026-08-24, version 7.1.2*

There are a few glitches happening. Other than that, this game is worth the price! No purchases needed and it’s been entertaining for my kid.

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2026-08-23, version 7.1.2*

Super fun

### 5/5 — Please give us back ups

*2026-08-21, version 7.1.2*

Please never delete this game and give us real back up support again. I hadn't played the original in years because it outgrew my phone and I finally upgraded the day before Thanksgiving and you pulled the plug on it and I couldn't buy it until today. I'm level 118. I'm so lucky I was able to learn about this before I lost my account forever please give us back real account support. I can't stand the thought of losing this account if I lose my phone after I just got it back. Edit: i'm dissapointed to learn i can never get the unique fruit from my friends again. I forgot what they were and gave them to animals by accident.

### 5/5 — Missed hand shake? No problem!

*2026-08-17, version 7.1.2*

I messed up the handshake by thinking I could delete the app after I transferred… horrible mistake on my part. Nintendo should have made that abundantly clear to its users, especially since so many have paid into the app for so many years and also the $20 for ACPC Complete. Still, it’s a cute game, and even though I’ve lost everything, this little app is a nice way to kill interim time instead of doom scrolling, which I loath. The game seems to have made it easier to acquire items so with a little determination and patience you can get your stuff back.

### 5/5 — No New Updates

*2026-08-17, version 7.1.2*

What a shame that you have to pay $20 for a game that will never receive new updates, items, villagers, NOTHING. I remember playing this game when it was free, and how betrayed I felt when Nintendo decided to delete your save data if you didn’t decide to pay to continue. At first, I just let it go, but after a couple years I picked it back up because there is no other game like it. I hope Nintendo decides to revive this game with new updates, items, clothes, anything—because ranking top 10 in the app store even after 8 years is 1000% indicative that there is a demand!

### 5/5 — Love Animal Crossing

*2026-08-15, version 7.1.2*

I have been a fan of Animal Crossing since I played the New Horizons. Now I'm addicted to it

### 5/5 — While I did play the old version

*2026-08-14, version 7.1.2*

I am someone who will play a game without spending any money if possible so very grateful with my past with not wanting to purchase the Passes that they had with the old version of the game. 

I do love the new version, but I am so sad that they got rid of the “Splatoon”, “Mario” & “Sanrio” collaboration items they were so cute and colourful I really hope they bring them back.

### 5/5 — The Funnest I’ve Had Since New Horizons

*2026-08-12, version 7.1.2*

I love this game! Thank you for packing all 7 years into a complete version for the fans! I just started playing it now so I’m years behind, but I’m so grateful it’s complete and I don’t have to spend in-game. Nintendo you’ll always have my heart.
