Animal Crossing: New Horizons isn’t a game that dazzles or gets the heart racing, that’s for sure. The most exciting moments are when you manage to catch a tarantula or rare fish. But it doesn’t need to elicit those kinds of emotions to be great. The game is relaxing and soothing. That’s it’s strong suit and it nails it completely, making it easy to sink hours and hours into in a single day. It is without a doubt the best entry in the series yet.
