Miitopia feels like a missed opportunity. It's a game that starts and ends strong, but falters in the many, many hours in-between.

Miitopia is the only Nintendo game that actually uses the Mii concept to its full potential. Even though the core gameplay doesn't stray far from a basic formula, I never thought that user-generated Miis could result in such an addictive barrel of fun.

I wasn't expecting to like Miitopia as much as I did, but it certainly had me hooked until the end. Whilst it's an odd duck for sure, it's one that is very hard to put down once the hooks are in.

Outside of the charm of watching your party interact with each other in battles, there's nothing really special about Miitopia. Not even the music or look of it. It actually makes me want to go back to Tomodachi Life, as that game seemed to know more about its identity.

When I first looked at Miitopia I honestly thought it was going to be an incredibly simple RPG meant for a younger audience.  While the game is simple and somewhat intended for younger players, it still has a look and feel that almost anyone can enjoy regardless of age or experience level.  While sometimes too easy and simple, Miitopia is still a lot of fun and worth checking out.
