If your kid is the type who longs to go on the epic adventures they see you playing all the time, I’d recommend it for sure. If you’re looking for a satisfying RPG experience for yourself, I might wait for a price drop or go play Bravely Default again.","https:\u002F\u002Fgamespace.com\u002Freviews\u002F3ds-reviews\u002Fmiitopia-review\u002F","2017-08-12","6.5",{"id":305,"author":306,"outlet":309,"summary":314,"review_url":315,"review_date":48,"original_score":196,"normalized_score":197},80052,{"id":307,"name":308},5935,"Russell Archey",{"id":310,"logo":311,"name":312,"website_url":313,"score_format":45},59,"https:\u002F\u002Fcdn.criticdb.com\u002Fstorage\u002Fv1\u002Fobject\u002Fpublic\u002Favatars\u002FOutlets\u002FGaming-Nexus-Logo.jpg","Gaming Nexus","https:\u002F\u002Fgamingnexus.com\u002F","When I first looked at Miitopia I honestly thought it was going to be an incredibly simple RPG meant for a younger audience.  While the game is simple and somewhat intended for younger players, it still has a look and feel that almost anyone can enjoy regardless of age or experience level.  While sometimes too easy and simple, Miitopia is still a lot of fun and worth checking out.","https:\u002F\u002Fwww.gamingnexus.com\u002FArticle\u002F5426\u002FMiitopia\u002F",20,[21],[26],[]]
