Gets old very, very fast - once you've played it for a week or so, you've pretty much exhausted all there is to do and seen all of the unique content. The gameplay is pretty basic and mostly consists of you watching your Miis exist like an ominous god until they deem it time to give you a short, repetitive little minigame.
That said, it's a fun, basic little simulator game that's very random in a very wacky, dreamlike kind of way, and making your friends and family can create some genuinely hilarious scenarios you'll want to tell them about.
I have fun coming back to this once every couple of years, making everyone all over again, playing around with it for a few days, and then abandoning it again, but I can't imagine playing it more in-depth than that. I certainly wouldn't pay more than £10-15 for it.
Also, no gay relationships. That's dumb. If you want to make your gay friends, you have to either deal with the uncomfortable experience of them falling randomly into straight romances or you have to make them a gender they aren't and just pretend real hard.
