The quirky and groundbreaking game is back with new features for all to enjoy. A faithful reproduction of the original work released in 2005, with a modern touch!

Populate your island with Mii characters—and find out what happens when they all live there together! Create Mii characters based on family, friends, or your own original ideas—there are plenty of personality traits, little quirks, and physical traits to choose from—including some face customization options you haven’t seen before! Go deep into getting every detail just right, or create Miis quickly and easily by answering some simple questions, and then help them explore their likes and dislikes, find relationships, and get up to all sorts of fun. Your Miis are bound to surprise you as they take on a life of their own! Become the caretaker of an island full of silliness, drama, love, and other surprises. Populate your island with Miis and then pick them up and place them near each other to chat and hang out. Watch your Miis forge unlikely friendships, get into fights, fall in (and out of) love unexpectedly, and so much more as they live their lives! Get to know what your Mii characters like as you take care of them. Give them clothes, food, items, and—most importantly—life advice as they deal with all kinds of problems and situations. You’ll also naturally help shape the community as Miis may pick up and start using the words and phrases you teach them. Build, decorate, and give gifts to make your Miis happy. Shape your landscape! Design your island and place homes, stores, restaurants, and more to supply events and entertainment for your community. Decorate your Mii characters' homes by gifting them furniture, wallpaper, floors, custom-designed interior and exterior decorations, and more—and create pets, food, clothing, and items like books and video games to suit each Mii!
