Fun game but a few glitches - some improvements could be made

There are some strange glitches I noticed - like when you have a child when single your status immediately changes to married? I feel like there could be some good micro transactions implemented to improve replay factor. And ability to choose life pathways instead of it being completely random (university and jobs etc).

Would be cool to be able to change your name

Amazing

This game is fantastic and executed really well, if more customisation and even more choices to develop individual characters were available I would say this was the best app I own. Good game but If improvements were made amazing game!

Decent - But repetitive

Was cool for the first few games then I realised you HAVE to die at 78 regardless of high Health stats and athleticism - definitely need more control in things as I joined the army then was shot up by the mob?? Doesn’t make sense

It seems every single game I play I get my name name run through the papers and my reputation ruined regardless of what I do

Needs many many new options, less random things that realistically would never happen in certain lifestyles

Great Start

It’s a fun game, could use a little improvement.
1. There should be a small chance of ppl being able to have a different career than the standard-like if the craftiness and culture is maxed or almost maxed out, maybe they could be an artist, other maxed out stats lead to the possibility of being in a band, playing professional sports, etc. Also more options to lead a criminal life.

Also more options in general for what kind of life you lead, keep adding things like you are, and this will keep this from getting stale and keep it fun and challenging!

Thanks for making it gay/lesbian friendly!

why ?

why is it that u only live till 78 make it a little longer so we can enjoy more of the game , other then that pretty good game !

Utter Garbage

This game talks about how you affect outcomes but there seems to be no agency whatsoever. I just ended up mashing buttons and letting the game do what it wants. Some very questionable social ideas too. Avoid.

Needs more things!

This is a really solid game that’s a lot of fun. The only real downside is unfortunately a fairly major one- there’s not a ton of content and after 10 runs or so it feels like you’ve seen everything the game has to offer.

Love it

Awesome game

Fun short term, glitchy

I enjoyed this game as much as I enjoyed the first of its kind, Alter Ego. I played this game for probably 12 hours - reckoned I got my money’s worth, but there’s some glitches in here. For example, if your spouse dies, you’re still in a relationship. The glitches don’t kill the game, but it does make it not as variable as it could be.

Okay until redownloading

The game worked fine and I was really pleased with it until I deleted it to free up some of my storage before a holiday. Once I redownloaded the game, every time I opened it it crashed even after I shut my phone down and tried to download it from the App Store again.
