By picking up and placing Mii characters next to each other, they’ll start hanging out together. Watch as they forge unlikely friendships, get into fights, fall in (and out of) love unexpectedly, and so much more.

As you care for your Mii characters, you’ll learn what makes them tick. Give them food, outfits, gifts, and – most importantly – advice as they deal with the ups and downs of daily island life. You can even teach your Mii characters different words and catchphrases which they’ll start using!

Shape the landscape

Expand and design your island as you see fit. Place homes, shops, restaurants, and more to give your island residents new hang out spots to visit. Want to make your Mii characters feel at home? Decorate their rooms with different interior sets, including furniture, wallpaper and floors to match their vibe.

Get crafty by making original items at the Studio Workshop! From unique exteriors for houses and ground tiles for decorating floors, to pets, food, clothing, and more. Have fun creating all sorts of unique things for your Mii characters to enjoy!
