I don't like telling people to buy anything, even if it's something I love. Everyone has different tastes. I say find an online reviewer that shares similar taste with you, or check customer reviews. I play both Sims and Animal Crossing and I find both to be very different, by the way.
It's fun because you get to extend your creativity. Make your town how you want, make your house how you want, unlock more and more features as you play, and so much more. It's like your own little perfect world on a little device. You're the mayor, you rule everything. You're the artist and the game is your canvas. I hated it at first because I didn't know what to do, bus since I've played more and more and have unlocked more and more, I am completely in love with this game. Trust me, just try it out. It's 100x better than Sims.

"You're the artist and the game is your canvas."
Sounds like so much work I see now why the game is so popular though. Is it possible to make your own clothes, shoes, do makeup hair, what else haaaaaaa oh furniture, flowers...? What are the limitations for creativity in the game?
That's what makes it interesting. You can play the game how you want, but if you want a glamorous town then of course you need to put effort into it. And if you want to know what the limitations are for the game, why not find out on your own? Most of the people here did.
My little apples character that was in my town came from a town with your user name aeiouy...weird..but that was the town he had come from, his previous mayor didnt like him though as he showed me a letter from them the day after he moved in saying YOU NEED TO MOVE!

I love this game. I've been playing New Leaf for almost two years, but my daughter tired of it after playing for a couple of months.My son played all the other versions and loved them. He tired of New Leaf after just a few days. So, I'ts obviously not for everyone.
Heres what I personally love about the game.
-The time is the same as ours. Same with the seasons. In winter, you get snow, etc.
-I like playing the special Holidays. Toy Day is my favorite.
-Decorating my town and houses.
-Catching fish and bugs
Visiting other towns from the dream suite.
Breeding hybrids.
That's just some of the things I like about NL. Some may find this sort of thing boring.

Everyone else in the thread has said everything I'd tell you like, five times over by now. So I'll just say this: Remember, if you end up not liking it, you can always return it or trade it in towards something else. 
Everyone has different tastes. So my advice is to search deeper into the game and see if it's something you want to buy. But...
I love ACNL because you can do so many things and it's very relaxing. Make your town however you'd like, decorate your house, talk/do things for your villagers, collect items, watch the seasons change, etc. You can even play online with other people, which is also very fun. If you like these sort of games, I highly suggest trying it out. You'll never know until you try it out yourself, right?

You joined this site for animal crossing! Be one of us! An animal crosser! (Plus not only that you will have so much fun, the game never ends and you pretty much run the whole town designing it to YOUR style and I love seeing peoples towns who expressed themselves throughout it
You know, even the people who play ACNL enjoy different aspects of the game. Creating your perfect town. Making your own tilesets. Designing clothes. Exploring other towns. Meeting and making friends with new villagers. Writing letters to them. Filling up your museum. Playing with people from around the world. Just watching your town grow. Relaxing with the slice-of-life gameplay. Dressing up your character in outfits you can't wear in real life. Dressing up your character in outfits you actually wear in real life. Festivals.
If you like creating things and watching them grow (Zoo Tycoon, Harvest Moon/Rune Factory, games made by Maxis, the sim titles by Bullfrog Productions, de Blob), then I recommend picking this game up. If you want something to compete in or destroy, choose another game.

You can't create your own shoes, hair, or flowers. You can have your done at Shampoodles, here's a guide. (Keep in mind there are a variety of wigs to buy too... So yes, you can have an afro in this game.) You can change your character's face to that of your Mii's at Shampoodles, so that covers make-up. Most of the shoes are sold at Kicks, though some you can only get from the island or from a certain NPC for helping them. You can't create your own flowers, though there are many types and varieties of them. When your town's Main Street is developed enough, you'll be able to purchase bushes, too. Certain furniture can be customised at Re-Tail, this site has pictures of all the combinations. To the extent that you can make your own furniture, you can create patterns and apply them to the fabric of furniture (custom bed covers, tablecloth, etc.). You can use custom patterns on cushions to make them look like food, bags of blood, sleeping cats, etc. You can save many patterns, but each character can only have six active patterns at a time. So many people who use a lot of tilesets for their town create mule characters to hold these patterns. It's not really a hassle, since people who like designing towns also furnish those characters' houses to be like hospitals, arcades, bowling alleys, schools, bakeries, or just awesome houses, etc. Oh, and Isabelle (your secretary) is a bit crazy about the spacing between public works projects (fountains, streetlights, wells, benches, etc.). So that's another limitation.
