Islander mini-games are featured in Tomodachi Bliss, Tomodachi Life and Tomodachi Collection. Islander mini-games are marked by green problem icons on their window. When the player selects a Mii's window, they will be very excited. If the player waits too long, the Mii might be worried. Upon entering their apartment, the Mii will ask the player to play a game with them, and they can either agree or disagree. If the player agrees, a random mini game will begin.
Sometimes, when the player is currently interacting with a Mii after a Mii is given something, they might say to the player, "Since you're already here, let's play a game!", and they will be prompted to play a mini-game similar to the green problem icon.
Success or draw will grant the player one of three random treasures, while failure will result in receiving either a box of tissues or toilet paper. If the player wins, the Mii says "Hooray! You did it!" (US), or simply "Congratulations!" (EU/AU), and if they fail, the Mii says "Always happens. Better luck next time." (US), or "Oh well. Better luck next time." (EU/AU)
List of Mini-games introduced in Tomodachi Bliss:
Catch (Description: If you catch the item before it hits the floor, you get to keep it as a prize! If you miss, you get... disappointment.) (Rules: The Mii drops a treasure and the player has to try to catch it. If the player manages to catch it, the prize is whatever they player caught. Sometimes, the Mii tells the player something in order to distract them and then drops the item so that the player will hardly notice. Other times, the Mii drops the item, but then pulls it back up with a string, saying "Oh, it was attached to a string. Weird." The player only has two chances to catch the item.)

If the Mii picks the red card, the game's over.)
