Tomadachi Life review eccentric socially driven life simulator

The ObserverSimulation gamesReview3DS, Nintendo, cert: 3

Nintendo's most recent console mascot – the Mii – appeals to the narcissist in everyone, and Tomodachi Life is a socially driven life simulator populated entirely by Miis. Without direct control over events, players exert their divine influence through passively helping, advising and pampering their subjects, helping them to live out their bizarre lives in happiness. Miis can be created locally or exchanged with the global community via QR codes, and the more you import, the stranger the interactions are: expect everything from epic rap battles to marriage and babies, and gamers can share pictures of their shenanigans directly to Facebook, Twitter or Tumblr. Play time is best suited to micro-sessions to ensure the mini-games don't outstay their welcome, and fans of The Sims and social networking could do a lot worse than this casual but eccentric time sink.
