Completing Every Mini-Game and How to Play Them in Tomodachi Life: Living The Dream

Select Language:

There are many ways to interact with your Miis in Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream. One of the most engaging options is the series of mini-games you can play with your Miis. They often invite you to join in for a quick game or turn at something fun.

There are 12 mini-games your Miis might ask you to play. Playing these games can boost your Mii’s level and also earn you rewards that you can sell for money.

Play Mini-Games to Win Treasures

When you start the game, you’ll see bubbles and lines around your Miis indicating they want to talk to you. Watch for a Mii with green lines above their head or on their icon—those are the ones eager to play! Talk to them and see which of the mini-games they want to try. Agreeing to play will start that game immediately, but if you decline, the offer disappears for now. So, make sure to chat with the Mii when you’re ready to play so you don’t miss out.

Each game has different rules to win, explained on the screen before you begin. No matter if you win or lose, all Miis will give you a prize after the game.

The prizes vary depending on your performance. Losing results in a simple consolation prize like toilet paper or tissues. Winning, however, means choosing from three wicker baskets of different sizes. Inside the basket, there’s a treasure with a reward for you. The treasures you acquire can be sold to earn extra cash, which helps pay for food, clothes, and island decorations. Be sure to sell high-value treasures to make the most money.
