Miitopia’s combat and exploration are simplistic to a fault. Sadly, all of that charm begins to melt away once you start digging into the actual gameplay. The visual overhaul for the Switch version is excellent, adding more detail and flourishes without losing the simplistic charm of the original 3DS graphics. The visuals and overall tone of the dialogue set up Miitopia as a tongue-in-cheek, comedic take on RPG tropes, and it succeeds pretty well on this front: it’s pleasant to look at, has lots of cute animations and bright colors, and the snappy, quip-laden dialogue is of the high quality we’ve come to expect from first-party Nintendo titles. You meet the Dark Lord, get told you’re the chosen hero, and quickly start to amass a party to vanquish evil from the land. Once you’ve got a bunch of Miis assigned to various roles, it’s time to set off on the adventure. It’s a bit cumbersome not being able to search in-game for specific characters (it took me far too long to find a good Hank Hill) but with some online sleuthing on social media you should be able to find some good created-character libraries. If you don’t have that sort of time, you can use Miis made by other players by entering their Access Code or pick from a selection of currently popular Miis. It takes time to make a really impressive Mii, but if you’re willing to put in the effort, you can make some astounding creations. It’s a cute and fun concept, and to Miitopia’s credit, the Switch version of the game features a fully revamped character creator that lets you go all-out with creating incredibly detailed Mii characters by layering different hair, eyes, facial features, and additional shapes. The Dark Lord of Miitopia is ruining the peace and stealing the faces of the populace, so it’s up to you and your merry band of adventurers to gear up and put a stop to his wickedness, with plenty of goofy character interactions and dialogue snippets along the way. Miitopia is a game where you take created Mii characters-based on yourself, friends and family, celebrities, fantasy characters, whoever-and “cast” them as player and NPC characters in a simple RPG story. Unfortunately, while there are notable improvements, the core game is still the same tiresome, repetitive experience from four years ago. But, as we’ve learned over the years, games can be improved significantly from their initial launches, and I figured that a Switch remake of Miitopia would be the perfect opportunity for Nintendo to fix the flaws of the 3DS release. The game was dull, simplistic, and felt so random that I barely felt like I was playing it.
