Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream

Nintendo’s long-dormant life sim returns after 12 years, and it’s exactly as strange as you’d hope. You fill an island with Miis, watch them meet, interact, spiral… and it’s legitimately, repeatedly funny, thanks to the timing, camera cuts and Mii expressions doing real comedic work. The creative tools are just competent enough, letting you draw custom facepaint, clothes, food, pets, house exteriors and more from scratch - if you’re so inclined. In short bursts, there’s a lot to love here.

Synopsis
Create Mii characters based on family and friends, someone you admire, or something completely original—there are plenty of personality traits, little quirks, and physical traits to choose from—including some face customization options you haven’t seen before! Go deep into getting every detail just right, or create Miis quickly and easily by answering some simple questions, and then help them explore their likes and dislikes, find relationships, and get up to all sorts of fun. Your Miis are bound to surprise you as they take on a life of their own!
