Miitopia Critic Reviews

Miitopia is the right kind of silly nonsense. It's oddball, but never random for the sake of randomness. There's method to the madness, and in giving players such control over the experience, Miitopia ends up becoming something resonant on a personal level. Part of the reason I had so much fun with this game was because I had a direct hand in crafting what I experienced. I rarely laugh out loud as much as I have had with this one, and that is more impressive of a feat than Nintendo will get credit for. It's hard to get humour right over something as extended in length as a JRPG, and Nintendo nailed it.

Despite the core gameplay being a remarkably basic RPG, Nintendo more than makes up for this by creating a world that makes fun of RPG tropes while giving you full ownership of every single character in the game. This allows for randomly generated funny moments and a feeling of ownership not found in many other titles. If you’re looking for a serious RPG, it’s not here; but, if you’re looking for a fun time filled with memes and light-hearted fun, you’re not going to do much better than Miitopia.

Miitopia provides a lively and rewarding gaming experience. Despite being simple, its history has fun dialogues, which makes the game perfect for both children and adults alike. The amazing art direction represents the universe in which the game is inserted. The player is always an active participant in the creation of the characters and the gameplay has countless resources and possibilities worthy of a great RPG. Although it gets a little repetitive at the end, Miitopia is excellent and one of the most pleasant surprises of the year.

Miitopia is a wonderful adventure featuring Nintendo's Miis, giving them character and life. Quirky humor, interesting albeit random gameplay, and an amazing character creator give this 3DS masterpiece a new chance on Nintendo Switch.

Miitopia is a simple RPG with a few very unmodern character-creating mechanics. Whether you are charmed by Miis or not is certainly your own prerogative, but the gameplay itself is perfect for beginner RPG players with its focus on relationships between your party members. Longtime RPG players may find a good time in its relative simplicity.

Beyond the improved visuals and supplementary customization options, the additional member of the team played by the horse proves the main evolution of Grezzo's port, which makes the adventure even more pleasant for young audience, while RPG veterans may surely appreciate such irony, too reminiscent of the 3DS version though.

Miitopia on Switch is a fantastic conversion from the 3DS and does an admirable job at enhancing the experience. The jump up in graphics is welcome, but the biggest improvement to the experience as a whole lies in its Mii integration. Having so much customization for the cast thanks to a robust online selection of fan creations allows the story to be goofier and funnier than it could be on its own, and the various absurd situations the cast is placed in help provide a lot of comedy. It’s basic as an RPG, but the execution of the basic combat system is good and it features modern quality-of-life improvements like auto-battle and fast-forward to keep the pacing high. If you’ve been craving a silly, fun RPG that isn’t too difficult and offers a lot of variety, Miitopia is a must-buy.

Miitopia is a very charismatic game that offers us the necessary tools to create all kinds of Mii. While this port may not be worth a second purchase for everyone who already owns the game on 3DS, this is a fun adventure from start to finish.

Miitopia is a game packed full of adorable moments and Nintendo charm, but don't go in expecting the deepest RPG experience around.

Miitopia surpassed my expectations! There’s a surprising amount of content here, given the initial appearance and cutesy graphics. If you prefer the light-hearted side of RPGs, there’s a lot of fun to be had, with a lengthy game on offer. And it is loads of fun creating Miis of your family and friends (or teddies and pets) along the way.

It’s refreshing to play a game so carefree and quirky as Miitopia that also allows you to customise the experience for whatever level of wackiness you need in your life.

Miitopia on Switch remains a charming RPG adventure with felicitous Mii integration, but also with unchallenging gameplay for everyone. There are some new or revised elements like the mount and better graphics, even so the game stays mostly the same. If you are a newcomer to Miitopia, it's a worth buy on Switch, if a flowing and relaxed experience is more important for you than demanding aspects. But if you played the original game, there is not much that could convince you purchasing Miitopia again.

Beautiful music, great humor and a lot of customization – Miitopia on Switch proved to be a great remaster of a 3DS classic.

Miitopia's main weakness may be that, for an RPG, it lacks depth of gameplay. Nonetheless, it manages to shine bright despite it all thanks to its MII. The fact that we, as players, can become the main characters alongside family and/or friends, thus creating altogether a charismatic group of heroes, it's indeed its biggest virtue.

Despite its ups & downs, it’s hard not to love Miitopia and its quirkiness. Even the most generic and basic RPG story suddenly becomes a compelling tale if you use friends-shaped Miis as characters and Miitopia adds to this formula a large amount of humor and weirdness that fills the void when the rhythm slows down. If I had a child, this would be the first RPG I’d play with him (or her).

Here is a game that will divide. For some, Miitopia will be this bizarre and vaguely funny RPG, lacking in depth, challenge and diversity. But for others - those who adhere to the Mii universe and the inherent good humor of Nintendo - it will be quite the opposite. Not that the offbeat tone of the title erases its flaws, but we are having such a good time that we are ready to forget them.

Miitopia is a simple, perfect RPG for anyone too young or too lazy (or disinterested) to play a “real” RPG.

Miitopia is a great turn-based RPG with a multitude of customization possibilities and a great sense of humor, although it ends up getting repetitive and offers few challenges. Despite this, it is a very interesting proposal for lovers of the genre looking to have a good time with Nintendo Switch.

Miitopia is an RPG for families, so if that’s what you’re looking for, it delivers a great experience.

Miitopia is mostly the same on Switch, to a fault.
