May add some photos too at some point.
People says its like a nintendo version of Sims. Yes and no. I mean you create characters and you dress them, feed them and play games with them. They also do their own thing. It's limited and there's no real goal and definitely no storyline. But, like the newly announced splatoon, it's a bit of fun and kinda of relaxing. A good game to play if you have half an hour to waiting aheadof you or a train or bus journey to occupy. I think the success of the game depends on the characters you create or scan via qr codes. For example, I have a mii of my own sister and I also have scanned a qr code to get Iwata, now they are wed and living together, something I find exciting and amusing. Makes me keen to see their progress and whether they'll have a baby. This relationship was a quick venture, I've only had the game less then a week now, unlike in the Sims where everything takes a while to develop. It was also heartbreaking to see my own mii be rejected by Gandalf, and having to try and get her over it was a challenge. The mini games are sweet but simple and limited. The most challenging thing about the game is trying to keep your money balanced, there are small incomes in everything you do, but with half your residents moaning for a new outfit every two days, it soon disappears. In making your characters, whether from scratch or scanned in your set with a number of questions to help get a personality for that character, it's suprising how accurate it can turn out to be and yet at the same time, limited. I'm also disappointed in the voice creator for each character, there isn't that much variation at all really and they all sound electronic with all the notable crackles that you'd expect from an automated answering machine, also having an accents option that actually doesn't seem to have anything to do with accents is a bit odd, but perhaps I'm tone deaf. All in all though, despite it's let downs it's still makes for a quirkey fun little time waster of a game, with the added amusement of sharing ingame pictures of your characters odd relationships.
Ps. As a review, how was that? What else should I include?
