Like why can’t I just dye it what colour I want and not need copies??? Also needs more different hairs such as messy buns and loose ponytails and more stitches details options ### 4/5 — Awesome game 👍👍👍👍👍 *2024-10-19, version 1.8.5.26* When I downloaded it yesterday I wasn’t sure what I could do???? Then I when I got the hang of it I found out I could do role plays dress up characters barely any ads and more !!!! ### 5/5 — 미션이에여 *2024-09-16* 쿠키가 40개 밖에 없어요…(쿠키다씀) ### 5/5 — Great Game! *2024-07-23, version 1.8.5.26* This game is a great upgrade from Character Maker, there are so many more features and clothing items to choose from! The story mode is actually pretty fun, but just needs more chapters, since I managed to finish it very quickly. I definitely recommend! ### 5/5 — Cute game *2024-06-26, version 1.8.5.26* The game is cute, I wish it had more customizable options though. ### 5/5 — SMURF CAT *2024-05-27, version 1.8.5.26* Smurf cat ### 5/5 — Awesome sauce *2024-05-15* It’s really great hope you guys will add more outfits to your wardrobe but still it’s amazingly good and it’s really cool to see you all make this happen ### 4/5 — My opinion 💕 *2024-04-13, version 1.8.5.26* This app is really fun for people who want to make creative avatars, and play games at the same time. Defined recommend! ❤️ ### 5/5 — 너무 귀여우여요 *2024-03-24* 완젼 깜찍해요ㅎㅎ ### 5/5 — So good! *2024-03-19, version 1.8.5.26* O my gawrsh(gosh) this game is so cute!!

This is so lovely. I love making characters. I struggle with depression, and, this app has helped me immensely in pushing forward. Also, inspired me to write a story. Thank you for all of your efforts. Love, Julie. Would love even more games/ opportunities for growth in this game. But, still. Super lovely. Thanks. ### 3/5 — 흠 *2026-03-01* 이거 깔기 전에 이거 보고 까는게 좋을겁니다. 일단, 이 게임은 보시다시피 대충 귀여운 케릭터들을 옷 갈아 입히고 상황극 어쩌구 하는 게임인건 아실겁니다. 귀여운 케릭들과 미니게임, 그리고 스토리까지 첨부되어 굉장한 갓겜… 까진 아닌것 같다는 것이 저의 지극한 개.인.적.인. 생각입니다. 이제 설명 들어갑니다. 자, 이 게임에는 스토리 모드 있는거 아까 말씀드렸죠? 근데 그게 제작자가 까먹었는지 중간에 스토리가 강제종료… 스토리 그거 볼 시간에 책 읽는게 더 효율적일듯합니다... 두번째, 이 게임은 옷들이 아주 스타일리쉬한게 굉장히 이쁨. 와! 유튜브 찍어야지… 는 추천 안함. 이유가 색 자유도가 머리 빼고는 없음.. 색 바꾸려면 뽑기로 똑같은가 2개 뽑아 운으로 색 찍어야함. 그러니 컨텐츠 목적이라면 가챠 라이프를 하셈. 세번째, 이 게임은 이런것들 말고도 뽑기가 조금 악마적임. 이건 내 개인적인 생각일 뿐임. 뽑기가 그렇게까지.. 악랄하다는건 아님. 결론: 잠깐 놀 정도로 쓰거나, 간단한 상황극 정도로는 아주 좋은 앱이지만, 그렇게 큰 것으로 쓰지는 말것! (이 내용은 저의 지극히 개인적인 생각입니다.) ### 3/5 — Only One Problem *2024-06-12* I love this game, I really do but there's one issue, often after watching an add either the app freezes or an add that won't count down appears and for both I have to close the app, thank goodness it automatically saves. Please fix this one little issue please ### 3/5 — Súper fun *2023-06-29, version 1.8.3.23* I LOVE THIS GAME if you like cute then this game is for you the only flaw I would say is that there is too many ads ### 3/5 — Love, but needs fixing! *2023-04-01, version 1.8.0.20* I’d don’t like the ghostly/dark part of the hair that you can’t take away. I’d like there to be an option to automatically have more colours, such as white, instead of manually trying to get it. Sometimes after an advert is finished, it instantly directs me to the App Store afterwards — in my case, a blank white App Store screen, because I’m NOT wasting data for something I’m not using! — and I have to close and reopen the app again, because there’s no return to app/close “App Store” option. So, I wasted my time and data, watching an advert for nothing, because it doesn’t give me the option to received the reward. Even after reopening the app, and watching an advert again, to get the reward, I frequently experience that repetitive cycle — usually 3 or 5, sometimes more! — until I’m able to get the reward, after an advert. I’d like to note, the adverts shown needs to be monitored for what’s suitable and what’s not, because I’ve seen some game adverts of animals being harmed and killed, and it’s was AWFUL!!! I’d hate for children to see them, because it’s horrendous! ### 3/5 — Review *2023-03-03, version 1.8.0.20* I like this game, it makes it easier to make characters for my fanfictions ### 4/5 — Only One Problem *2026-04-03, version 1.8.10.37* I love this game, I really do but there's one issue, often after watching an add either the app freezes or an add that won't count down appears and for both I have to close the app, thank goodness it automatically saves. Please fix this one little issue please ### 4/5 — 질문이 있는데 부탁드려요☺️ *2025-07-25* 안녕하세욤! 혹시 캐릭터 라이프 유튜브에 올려도 되나요? 만화같은거 만드려고 합니다. 그리고 캐릭터 메이커랑 아직 둘중 무슨 게임 올릴지 모르겠으나 둘 다 올릴 확률도 있어용(캐릭터 메이커에도 질문 적었었는데 친절하게 답변해주셔서 좋았어용❤️)그리고 혹시나…음식같은거 손에 드는 아이템+여러가지 눈! 만들어주실 수 있나요? 캐릭터 메이커에 있는 눈 넘 이쁜듯 하더라구요! 답 부탁드려요! 그럼 감사합니다! ### 4/5 — 너무 귀여워요🫶🏻😍 *2025-05-24* 심심할 때 하기 좋아요👍🏻 쿠키랑 클로버도 광고 보거나 미션 하거나 미니게임 하면 쉽게 얻을 수 있고용 스토리도 재밌고 캐릭터랑 배경을 직접 꾸며서 스튜디오에서 상황극할 수 있는 게 너무 좋은 것 같아요😚✨ ### 4/5 — Yesn’t *2025-03-14, version 1.8.5.26* Hbcbgfdwujbgfveiummhmgtrecrcfcrgij ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Love *2026-07-15, version 1.8.10.37* My daughter said she loves this ### 5/5 — Cute! *2026-03-11, version 1.8.10.37* It’s So Cute! I Love It ### 5/5 — Review *2025-11-07, version 1.8.10.37* Love it just wish there were more character look options ### 5/5 — The game is good, but… *2025-07-27, version 1.8.10.37* So I like this game, but I wish there were more poses, or a pose customization option. Aside from that, the game is pretty good. ### 5/5 — 언제….. *2025-06-28* 게임은 정말로 제밌는데 언제 업데이트 되나요? ### 5/5 — 넘 재미있어요! *2025-06-15* 오랜만에 했는데 여전히 재미있네여!앞으로도 이런게임 많이 만들어주세여! ### 5/5 — Free cookies! *2025-04-09, version 1.8.5.26* I love the missions that give you cookies for free so you don’t have to buy them! It’s an amazing game for when you are bored or you would like to create your own avatars! It’s really amazing, keep it up! The only bad thing about it is that most/ all of the ads are at least 60 seconds and I’m waiting too long for what I’m watching it for, besides that I love it! ### 5/5 — Please Update *2025-03-09, version 1.8.5.26* I adore creating characters in this game. Please make more clothes and shoes! I would love more goth options! Thank you! ### 5/5 — 오오 갓겜 *2024-10-23* 말그대로 갓겜이니 깔아보셔요 ㅋㅋㅋ ### 5/5 — Good *2024-10-08, version 1.8.5.26* Good but we cannot use all Clover World accessories --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
