Tomodachi Life... Is it worth it?

[kiwi-strawberry]

I just got enough money to be able to afford the game ($21 USD) and it looks pretty good. I got the demo and enjoyed it, but I'm still wondering... It the game actually worth the money? Of course, as far as games go, $19.99 USD is pretty cheap, but still, I don't want to waste my money on a bad game.

I'd definitely say it's not a game for everyone, but if you enjoyed the demo, you should get it :0

The game can get repetitive and annoying after a while.

I still enjoy it though...

Yeah, the game can get a bit annoying after a while if you don't enjoy playing god. I like to like vicariously through the miis I create in the game. Also, if you time travel changing the 3ds clock the game won't let you purchase any daily items from the shop. Just a heads up

If you liked the demo gameplay, I'm thinking you'll probably like the full game. There are definitely some aspects to it that a lot of people wouldn't like, but I think most of those aspects are apparent within the first few minutes of gameplay, so I'd assume you've already come across those (basically, that there are only a certain amount of ways you can directly interact with your Miis and a lot of the game is observing the random events that happen between them).

Honestly, there are far better deals on the Nintendo 3DS than Tomodachi Life. From what I've played, the game is sorely lacking in substance after you've grown out of its hilarious premise. You're better off watching a Let's Play of that game rather than buy this somewhat overpriced title.

For me at least, it was one of those games that you play for a lot, then you put it down for like 4 months until you're in the mood to play it again cause you've gotten bored of it

this. this is literally what i did then i lost the cartridge and have still not found it lol.

maybe try get it reduced? idk, its definitely not a game for everyone

 

[Hopeless Opus]

in all honesty i highly recommend it. idk, i just love messing around with the miis and getting them to marry or have kids is so satisfying it's unreal lol. i really love it because of its charm and quirks and i really think you should try and buy it. worth it for 20 dollars. the only thing is that it gets a bit repetitive after a while!

I found it really entertaining for quite a while until I lost all interest in it. I then sold my copy for a decent amount to pay for some other game. In my opinion, it was definitely worth it. Even if I ended up losing interest, it was still an enjoyable experience.

While it does get repetitive after a while, it is a whole lot of fun for the first few weeks (or months, depending on how much you play). Considering it's only around $20 now, I definitely think it's worth it. If you like being creative by adding lots of Miis, and coming up with song lyrics for them to sing, etc., you'll get more enjoyment out of the game. If you're only interested in adding a few Miis, you'll probably tire of the game quicker.

It really just matters on personal opinion. I personally liked it for a couple days as all the ideas were new and fresh but after awhile, it became really repetitive. It seems more like it should have been an app on your phone that you check up on during the day instead of for a console. If you think it would be fun to play, it’ll probably be fun or if you think you’ll not enjoy it, then it’s probably not for you.

It gets boring after awhile, but I will say that it entertained me for a good two years before it got old. It really depends on the type of games you're into. This one is laid back and centers more around helping others, kind of like Animal Crossing.

 

[Aleigh]

Personally, I love the game. I believe it is so worth it, especially if you enjoyed the demo. It's hilarious and very interesting and can keep you entertained for hours. I don't play it as much as I used to, but I still love it. I love the different stories you can create with each and every character.

 

[Alienfish]

If you like "endless" life simulators and stuff like this and Animal Crossing, then maybe. But if dailies and just creating and doing tires you out, then def. no.

 

[KnoxUK]

If its cheap then yes. It's so much fun! HOWEVER when you start to see repeating content it quickly looses its appeal. I played it to death for a solid week, but I'm sure it can last you a bit longer. Hope this helps!

 

[Balverine]

I really liked it for a while and played it all the time! I still go back to it every now and again, but I did lose interest.
It is a really cute game, though!

Tomodachi life is such a funny game, its gets so goofy and they gross thing that the miis do in that game is that they fart.
