Alana praised the game&#8217;s interactivity and bizarre sense of humour, but nevertheless felt that it became quite repetitive with some limited touchscreen implementation.<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s what she had to say:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream is the strangest thing you\u2019ll play from Nintendo, bringing with it laughs and creativity in abundance. But even with improvements over the 3DS game, it follows a familiar structure that isn\u2019t always enthralling or hilarious.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Tomodachi fans will certainly be living the dream with this new entry, but I\u2019m not desperate to keep coming back to my island. A little more variety would\u2019ve been welcome, but the customisation, and the thought of my cat being best friends with DMC\u2019s Dante, will have me peep in every so often for a little pick-me-up.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><!-- cache: html:nintendolife.com\/ssl\/nintendo-switch\/related-articles:198836 @ 1776792084 --><\/p>\n<aside class=\"block object-related\"> <\/aside>\n<p>So now, it&#8217;s over to you.
