After over 100 days of playing Animal Crossing, I decided it might be worth giving a second game a go. And that game was A Short Hike.
You play as a bird who has decided to hike to the top of Hawk Peak. You can wander freely around the open world and as you do so, you collect golden feathers. These are important because they allow you to fly, climb and jump for longer, allowing you to get further up the mountain.
It’s a really fun game you can complete in a few hours. The physics are lovely and the graphics are warm. But you don’t quite get the amazing views jumping off the top of the mountain because the Switch doesn’t have the power to render the entire world as a background.
Well worth spending a cozy evening with.
