Peaceful ‘Animal Crossing: New Horizons’ works a treat during these turbulent times

I have no legitimate caption for this screenshot, I just wanted to show off my island of Cocoro.

Animal Crossing: New Horizons was released for the Nintendo Switch on March 20, and this idyllic life simulator about living on an island full of talking animals arrived fortuitously right before everyone was legally mandated to stay indoors (and play video games).

My friend, knowing that I’m a video game reviewer, understandably asked me for a video game review.
