Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream - Nintendo Switch

Populate your island

Create all sorts of Mii characters based on your family and friends, someone you admire, or someone completely original! From their appearance to their personality traits and even little quirks, there are all sorts of ways to customise your Mii characters – including face parts that are unique to this game.

Adjust each individual detail to your liking or create Mii characters by answering a series of simple questions. Help them explore their likes and dislikes, form relationships, and get up to all sorts of wacky fun. Your Mii characters are bound to surprise you as they take on a life of their own!

Take care of your community

By picking up and placing Mii characters next to each other, they’ll start hanging out together. Watch as they forge unlikely friendships, get into fights, fall in (and out of) love unexpectedly, and so much more.

As you care for your Mii characters, you’ll learn what makes them tick. Give them food, outfits, gifts, and – most importantly – advice as they deal with the ups and downs of daily island life. You can even teach your Mii characters different words and catchphrases which they’ll start using!

Shape the landscape

Expand and design your island as you see fit. Place homes, shops, restaurants, and more to give your island residents new hang out spots to visit. Want to make your Mii characters feel at home? Decorate their rooms with different interior sets, including furniture, wallpaper and floors to match their vibe.

Get crafty by making original items at the Studio Workshop! From unique exteriors for houses and ground tiles for decorating floors, to pets, food, clothing, and more. Have fun creating all sorts of unique things for your Mii characters to enjoy!
