My son literally plays this game for hours. I finally understand why- it’s like a 3D soap opera for kids! He can create characters (Miis) made to resemble friends, relatives, teachers, celebrities, etc and then he watches to see what they will do. Some of them get married. Some buy a house, some even have children. They can go shopping and wear unique clothing (something the girls would be more likely to do than my son.) He and his friend facetiime each other and talk about what’s happening their Tomodachi Worlds. It’s so funny to hear them talk about their friends getting married, whether their Mom and Dad Miis are together and see what kind of trouble they get into. When they first started playing it, I was confused as to the whole purpose of the game. It’s not really a “game” but more of an experience. There are no levels to beat, no achievements to unlock.
