New Horizons is one of my favorite games of the last few years, so I was excited when this DLC was announced. While there is a lot of charm here, the designing begins to feel repetitive after a short while, even with the variety of furniture and themes.

One of my main issues with the game is that once I finished designing a home, there was no reason to visit it again. There's a disconnect that comes from spending time and effort putting together a good design, only to have it reduced to a screenshot and be quickly forgotten.

I still had a good enough time with Happy Home Paradise, but there's a lot of unrealized potential to this formula.
