How do quirks work in Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream?
Tomodachi Life quirks and how to give them
Little quirks are habits that change how a Mii walks, greets, eats, talks or acts. You unlock quirk sets with wishes at the Wishing Fountain. Then, when a Mii levels up, you can give it one quirk from the sets that you unlocked.
Steps
- Make your Miis happy. Give them food and items they like, and solve their problems.
- Collect Warm Fuzzies and pour them into the Wishing Fountain. Each new fountain rank gives a wish.
- Spend a wish in the Level up category to unlock a quirk set. Walking styles are there from the start.
- Fill a Mii's happiness gauge. The Mii then levels up.
- Choose a quirk as the level-up gift and pick the quirk you want.

Tips
- You spend a wish one time to unlock a set. You do not spend a wish each time you give a quirk.
- At level-up, a quirk competes with other gifts, such as a Prezzie or a catchphrase. Pick the one that fits the Mii.
- Quirk sets include greetings, standing poses, walks, eating styles, appetite, anger, expressions and voices.
- The last set has habits such as night owl, snores loudly and fashionista.
- Plan a theme for each Mii. A shy Mii can greet shyly, walk with tiny steps and talk with a quiet voice.
Questions
How do you unlock more quirks in Tomodachi Life?
Raise the Wishing Fountain rank with Warm Fuzzies. Then spend wishes in the Level up category on new quirk sets.
Can you give a Mii a quirk without a level-up?
No. You give a quirk only as the gift when a Mii levels up.
What are examples of quirks?
Guides list quirks such as walks like a model, eats quickly, cries when angry, loud voice and night owl.
Can you remove a quirk?
Guides do not agree. Some say you can turn a quirk off in the Mii's profile. You do not get the level-up gift back.
Are quirks the same as personality?
No. You choose the personality when you make the Mii. Quirks are extra habits that you add later.
