Miitopia
One of the latest additions to the 3DS lineup of games, Nintendo is bringing us into another
of the Miiverse' thriving worlds.
But unlike Streetpass and the adorable Tomodachi Life, Miitopia takes on a different kind of
adventure into the realms of fantasy role-playing.
Far from the everyday struggles of their other simulations, enter the cartoon medieval age
and take up arms to defeat the face-stealing Dark Lord.
As dark as that sounds, Miitopia is as goofy and quirky as any other Mii game.
But what sets it apart from others, happens to be also its biggest weakness.
With life simulations taking the backseat to a working but clunky RPG system.
Ultimately, it's a great idea that fails in execution.
It has a PlayScore of 5.18.
