Ooblets Preview
When the COVID-19 panic began erupting back in March, a near-universal source of comfort within the gaming community was the perfectly-timed launch of Animal Crossing: New Horizons. This may well wind up being the worst year any of us have lived through, and more than ever we’re seeing the value in transporting ourselves to cute, colorful worlds in which everything is totally fine and remains that way.
HIGH Nailing the timing needed to consistently counter enemies. LOW Having to use an item once before knowing what it does. WTF An area that almost looks like something out of Control. HIGH It’s staggeringly beautiful. LOW I never want to hear the word “honor” ever again. WTF The absolute stockpile of headbands I’ve accumulated.Mortal Shell Review
