About this game

Experience life as a different person, do whatever you want with this new life you’ve been given, live like you’ve never lived before!

This open-ended text-based life simulator packs real-world odds, novel-worthy storylines and an in-game clock together with realistic NPCs who grow and change alongside virtual you.

Be born in a village in an underdeveloped country or be heir to the fortunes of the top 1%! Be cared for by your family, or feel what it’s like to have them absolutely detest you. Make your life story a beautiful romance or dedicate all of your time to growing your career. Live in the home of your dreams or struggle to get out of homelessness. Have children, grandchildren, great grandchildren, or just squander all of your money exploring life’s possibilities!

No fixed storylines. No right or wrong answers. Just life as it is in your wildest dreams—and nightmares. With Play This Life, you now have so much more than just one life to live.

really fun game! debating on upgrading to legacy version at some point actually! Only reason not 5 stars is sometimes it feels repetitive... But!! I've gotten into it again and my characters keep having chronic illnesses it seems! I don't understand WHY this is, but it's occuring! And its also entertaining (to me at least, and very relatable too!)

The concept of the game is really good I like that it's realistic as it is very challenging for me. However, the circle thing at the corner of the screen that dictates how much time you have left is a bit inconvenient because it is due to that I cannot get anything done so if it could atleast go a little longer it would be easier to complete and also it is si hard to go from unhappy to happy

Thanks for playing Play This Life, Tavana! To have more time, you could hire household staff in Adjust Lifestyle or you could do time-saving activities like use a Laundromat, Fast Food Joint, etc in the Go Out section. You can also do fun activities aligned with your play person's personality traits to cheer your play person up or Waste Time.

great app over all but the more I play the more bugs and errors will display. One time I got -26 kids when I actually have only 3 living kids :,).
