Leave a Review Family Life!
IMHO :)
PROS: I like the choice-based style storylines. I enjoyed the little family I put together. I watched them grow old and live their best lives.
CONS: ADS!!! They randomly pop up at the most inconvenient moment. Every 2(-/+) mins there’s an ad randomly popping up, which is ridiculous. Like, I understand that the Devs use the ADS to make money, but the amount of time F2P have before an ad pops up in their app is unreasonable. The like of diversity in the characters. The only ones available are white or fair-skinned POC. I have no issue with white or light-skinned POC, but it’s a game that suppose to resemble humans irl, and not every modern family is white or light-skinned POC. There are families that are black, asian, etc. And also, some families are interracial. The fact that I have to even point that out is ridiculous also.
Let me be clear, this isn’t a bad game. It’s interesting and has potential to be better, but until then, I’m giving it 3 stars.Show lessJumpropes999

Too many ads
This game is good, bitlife is better I must say, although what I like about this is that you can deal with multiple peoples lives where as bitlife it's just 1 & that you the main character, with this game there's a family tree & you can place them in different houses, but I hate the amount of ads this game gives, far too many for one game to have & this game was glitching out my phone too, so I had to delete the appShow lessSararies
ADS
Okay so the game looks kinda interesting but overall it’s pretty bad. You can’t even make your own decisions AND everything is locked away until you have 3 CHILDREN. if you can’t make your own decisions in this game then you have to wait until the game makes one for you. WHICH TOOK ME AGES.
Another thing is that this game is FULL. And I mean FULLLL. Of ads. Constantly ad after ad, at this point the game is just unplayable.Show lessAsh271613
Great but a few issues!
Okay, now don’t get me wrong.. I LOVE this game! It’s innovative and entertaining and fun! But there are a few downsides. My first downside is that there is SOO MANYYY ADSSS!! I understand that ads are what keep the game free and that without ads it would be much harder to make a profit. But still , the amount of ads this game has is getting to be a ridiculous amount . I appreciate the focus that goes into making this a great game, though. My second concern is a bit more detailed. Whenever I make it deep into the game , normally that’s about 3 or 4 maybe 5 generations, it tells me that my family is in debt too much and it makes me restart my family all the way over agin . Even though most of the time I’m 99 % sure that I took care of the debt. Besides the concerns the game is flawless and purely entertainment. I also have a few suggestions for updates if your willing to listen. I’m still new to the game so if any of these features are already in the game ignore them. I think instead of waiting for the game to pick who you are going to control , you should have the option to pick who you want to control and have more options for the scenarios you get out into. I also think that you should get more options as to what career path you want to follow. Thanks for listening .. 👍Show lesslol imma not put mah name

The game is super fun and super cool but the only thing that I think is a little sad is like so like when there’s a family and like the partner dies and then they just get remarried and then it just covers up there partner like weird but like icons like on the right next to each other if the wife died, it would cover her up with a new girl or a boy if that if he got remarried and I feel like you should just put the dead partner I feel like you should kind of make a graveyard for lost love ones like in the corner or in the corner of the game that would be like really great, but yeah Game is just really amazing, but I hope you can read thisShow lessAubbybobby12347
High potential, too many ads
I think the game itself is great and has lots of potential. Although similar to BitLife it has its own thing… The ads do bring the game down massively to the point it’s practically unplayable without upgrading $30. It seems a bit forced to the point it’s not letting you enjoy the game without.
All the prices could do with adjusting and the adverts need toning down. 50% less on price and adverts seems reasonable. I could see myself buying a $15 package but when you’ve got similar games on the market as well for cheaper prices it just doesn’t make sense.
Most people I can see quitting before they get hooked which is probably a big reason why you’re getting low reviews. Perhaps taking a look at how frequent BitLife shows ads & the prices they charge I think are a good balance.
I’ll keep the game on my phone as I can see potential, hopefully the prices or adverts drop quite a bit.Show lessLeonW99
Ads
Amazing game, addictive, I spend hours playing it however there are more ads than game play and after awhile it gets frustrating with the multitude of ads I receive through game play options or ads interrupting game play or popping up minutes after the last. Again I truly enjoy it and find it is simple game that brings an enjoyable game play experience.Show less🤷♀️🤷♂️🤷💁♀️💁💁♂️
Good but…
Okay I’ve played this game for HOURS and I LOVE it but i watched an ad for something and my screen went black. I tapped different things to try fix it but nothing worked. I had to delete the app in the end and lost all my hard work. There are also many ads which ruin the game experience. Thank you!Kitty 🐈 cat
Not A Fan
At first this game was really fun but it gets repetitive after a while. In particular, outcomes for certain decisions become predictable because it’s always the same result. Also, probably my least favorite thing, there’s no end to reach or way to win, it’s just constantly playing until you lose.
Other issues:
* Maintenance costs for non-working family members, especially children, go up as the game goes along, but the salaries of employed people don’t, making it much harder to keep a positive income.
* The game constantly tries to give you multiple births when you choose to have a child. You’ll be getting your finances back in the green, decide it’s a good time to add a kid or two, and instead BAM, QUADRUPLETS. It seems like they think this is a benefit but it really isn’t when you take the actual game mechanic into account (particularly in conjunction with the previous point).
* This may just be a personal pet peeve but I really hate when characters get called “Stupid [Name]”. Every other adjective is neutral or positive but for some reason the game really wants to let you know that low lQ person has low IQ and that’s the single most important thing about them.Show lessEchoGirl92
