The new release of Tomodachi life, which now allows for character customization, has fans excited around the world.
Fans express their love for the nostalgia the graphics give them, often reminding them of the original tomodachi life.
“I really do like the visuals of tomodachi life. I like the pixel feel of the game because it reminds me of the old tomodachi life I've played previously. It all comes from nostalgia and I just love how cute the visuals are. It makes me super happy.” Sherine Frairinx said, a 10th grader and a big fan of tomodachi life ever since the earlier releases.
Not only are the visuals great, but fans also really like the gameplay: being able to express their creativity.
“I think it is pretty fun because I like making my own characters and seeing them interact like how they play with maracas. That's one of my favorite parts. You can make your own miis, have them interact, and have them be friends. It absolutely brings out the creativity in people.” 9th grader Kennedy Rose shares excitedly, having been enjoying the tomodachi life gameplay.
Tomodachi life is able to draw people into playing the game because of the popularity of it, and how cute the game is.
“I don't know man, I saw people playing the demo and it looked cool. The visuals look good for a game that's been developing since 2017. I like the current creativity options because it's very easy to make whatever you want in the game and I don't think I’d change anything.” 10th grader Louis Fuentez explains, being ecstatic over playing tomodachi life in the past recent days.
Overall, fans love tomodachi life for its fun visuals, exciting gameplay, and ability to express creativity.
“Tomodachi life helps me express myself by being able to draw my favorite characters the exact way I want them.” Frairinx shares with a smile.
