### 3/5 — Fun but ads

*2026-09-07, version 0.2.305*

There’s a bunch of ads a couple of inappropriate things, but it is fun

### 3/5 — It needs more updates

*2026-09-07, version 0.2.305*

I really enjoy playing this game, but like another comment mentioned, it reaches a point where there isn’t much to do. I also agree with the suggestion about being able to change the characters' names and expand the family. I believe these updates could attract more positive attention to the game. Perhaps adding more events that players can choose before earning, and including more special events or mini-games, would make the game more engaging.

### 4/5 — Can the kid go to college

*2026-09-06, version 0.2.305*

Decent game but I’ve done everything already and the kid is more of a pain than anything. They don’t count for any objectives and they always get in the way. Also some of the objectives are faulty and you don’t get credit for them. That part is annoying.

### 3/5 — No more levels

*2026-09-05, version 0.2.305*

It’s a good game up until the little becomes a teenager. Then no more houses are available to decorate unless you spend actual money.

### 3/5 — Help?

*2026-09-04, version 0.2.305*

I’m really enjoying this game I’m literally addicted but I’m past the baby grows part and still no child In the house? I’ve the room and all completed had the wedding and everything it’s so odd idk what’s going on. And the way the energy goes so quick is irritating.

### 4/5 — Decent

*2026-09-02, version 0.2.305*

One of my favorite games just wish they had more updates as I have the same issue as other with completing things to fast.

### 4/5 — Next update?

*2026-09-01, version 0.2.305*

When is the next update out? I got a key but the only houses for sale cost actual money?

### 3/5 — Semi disappointed

*2026-09-01, version 0.2.305*

It’s a shame as I really liked this game however I have now completed all my houses and find it unfair I’d have to pay real money for new ones. You should’ve provided at least 1 free house. I literally have nothing left to do so won’t be playing until a new update now which is disappointing

### 4/5 — Like-able game

*2026-09-01, version 0.2.305*

Update: why does the free stuff I watch adds for keep disappearing? I also have not been getting all my diamonds. 
I like it this game. I’ll give a 5 when there’s more added.  There needs to be more to do. It’s the same thing over and over. Same stories. Doing the same thing. Now the only houses I can purchase is for real $. I hope this changes. There needs to be more clothing options. Why doesn’t the washer work as choir? No swing sets or pools for the yard? Also, I accidentally named my son a girl’s name and I can’t seem to change it. Most of the kids bedroom stuff is for girls. I’d like to have options for more pets. Why have two grown adult rooms if there’s only parents and a teenager? No1 comes over. 
Why do they say there is now where to sleep when clearly there is. I’ve put multiple pet beds Dow and they don’t seem to find it in my rentals? Why doesn’t the people go upstairs to sleep? Give us cleaning chores like when you buy the house. We need more to do. More options. 
Please fix this game so we all can continue playing . At this point I’m
Bored with the same stuff to do over and over.

### 3/5 — Too many ads

*2026-08-31, version 0.2.305*

I don’t like all the ads like why do I need to watch 9 ads straight to acquire something for free? Between Theo & Ava… is there something more? Why is everything priced where you have to pick and chose bc your not getting enough money?why can’t the things I have in my inventory be used to complete a room? I have a refrigerator but I have to buy a new one

### 4/5 — Like the game, just needs some improvements

*2026-08-30, version 0.2.305*

I would actually love nothing more than to pay for the ad free version (ad breaks are entirely too frequent compared to how many tasks/stories I can actually get done between breaks), but the screen has no price and just freezes when I try to click on it. 
Aside from that, I think the amount of energy you have needs to scale as you add family members if they want players to spend more time in the game. I can only rearrange furniture so many ways (can’t buy any new if I don’t have energy to make money) and watch my avatars do 1-3min tasks to up their stats for so long while waiting for the energy to refill. Gets boring when there’s no forward progress and then I close the app and forget.

### 2/5 — Dinkie

*2026-08-29, version 0.2.305*

Please update

### 2/5 — Fun for 5 minutes

*2026-08-29, version 0.2.305*

Everything they do is timed, you can’t cancel once they start , and the timer does NOT keep going once you close the game. For example, you make them do a workout that is 4 minutes long, if you exit the app the timer pauses. This forces you to stay on the game to get anything done !!!!! The only timers that go are the ones that collect rent and work task. This game is not fun enough to force people to stay in the app!!!!!!!!! Also the ads are overwhelming , MAINLY because even if the ad itself is short, the time it takes for the X to pop up to exit is extremely annoying and it’s CONSTANT!



Update as of 07/28/2026, put things in my inventory to rearrange the house and everything I put in inventory is GONE. I’ve done all the homes, only homes left you have to pay real money for. You’re better off off playing the sims 4 because this game is not worth spending a penny on…… you can’t even move certain doors!! So you can never truly arrange these homes the way you want

### 3/5 — Family

*2026-08-28, version 0.2.305*

It would be good if they could have more than 1 child

### 1/5 — Update ruined the game

*2026-09-06, version 0.2.305*

I’ve reached out before and never heard back but the new update ruined this game. So many glitches with the upstairs it forces you to put all bedrooms upstairs but come night time they’re all walking in circles saying they need a bed. Then if u do something like bath or lay down upstairs it glitches and they’re laying or bathing on the floor downstairs. Now every question costs the same amount of energy which is so stupid. If you haven’t updated yet don’t they ruined it. I played this religiously for months and the update now just randomly steals energy. I’ll be leveling up characteristics and suddenly 10 of my energy is gone. I’ll close the app and come back and 20+ energy is gone. Also all questions now cost double energy what they ever did before this scam update

### 1/5 — Need more updates.

*2026-09-02, version 0.2.305*

Nothing more to do. Doing the same stories over and over.

### 1/5 — Too many scams against the player and developers not fixing anything

*2026-09-02, version 0.2.305*

Today when I logged into the game, I had 3,107 gems.  I purchased a lot of them.  I logged out of the game for about 10 minutes and when I logged back on, I was down to 2,462 gems.  I was scammed out of 645 gems! I did not purchase anything and as usual, there is no way to contact any support! This game is a huge scam and never ever again will I purchase anything! Watch your gem count because we are getting scammed. Then, you can’t complete all daily tasks because a lot of tasks are for the child. Well, mine grew into a 15 year old and for some reason, she’s listed as an adult! Last time I checked, 15 was a teenager! So, I’m supposed to dance 30 times with my child and can’t.   So I’ve lost 645 gems and now can’t complete tasks.  This game is no fun anymore.

### 1/5 — Needs update

*2026-09-01, version 0.2.305*

It’s a good game. But it needs update.The game take my holiday front door. It needs update house to open up. They want u to buy the houses with real money. That sucks. Don’t get me wrong I love this game but it’s getting boring. What more pets like dogs and cats. I want to have more kids.

### 1/5 — No kids

*2026-08-30, version 0.2.305*

Games says I reached the level to have a kid but how do I do that??? It’s confusing

### 1/5 — Boring

*2026-08-29, version 0.2.305*

It’s not like what the ad  shows

### 1/5 — Watch your gem count as the game cheats you out of them.

*2026-08-28, version 0.2.305*

Today when I logged into the game, I had 3,107 gems.  I purchased a lot of them.  I logged out of the game for about 10 minutes and when I logged back on, I was down to 2,462 gems.  I was scammed out of 645 gems! I did not purchase anything and as usual, there is no way to contact any support! This game is a huge scam and never ever again will I purchase anything! Watch your gem count because we are getting scammed!

### 1/5 — Doing chat tasks

*2026-08-28, version 0.2.305*

Ever since new update it’s taking my energy but not fulfilling the task and I spent my diamonds as well in try carry out my energy tasks and they not doing it won’t even go on to another energy tasks just constantly spending energy on same task this is a bug needs fixing immediately also want my diamonds back that I’ve lost and can’t even do the new challenge because can’t dget energy to fulfil the tasks as not moving from the same energy task

### 1/5 — Needs to be updated again !!

*2026-08-23, version 0.2.305*

Been playing game for about a year now and close to be deleting it you updated the game but put 2 new houses that come to £60.00 of my money which is not happening still so many things haven’t unlocked when they was suppose to if it doesn’t get updated soon sadly I will be removing it which is a shame

### 5/5 — Love it

*2026-09-06, version 0.2.305*

When is there more coming out

### 5/5 — Good but one issue

*2026-09-06, version 0.2.305*

Love the game in general. It’s good to play continuously for a while if you have time, also good for just popping in every now and then. no ads unless you want more “money”, honestly I do think the game in general is good. However I’m on level 2341 and there are no houses available to buy even though I have a key. No dates on when they will be ready. Maybe I’m just not used to the game so it may be my fault.

### 5/5 — Need Update and levels

*2026-09-04, version 0.2.305*

Would love more levels. Thank you

### 5/5 — Parrot

*2026-09-01, version 0.2.305*

Did anyone else have a issue with the parrot glitching?

### 5/5 — Need more updates

*2026-08-30, version 0.2.305*

Nothing more for me to do or purchase need more to updates for things to do. also when the the child turns into an adult there is no way to have more kids so your not able to complete the challenges that involve dancing or talking with the kid & you miss out on the rewards because of this. Please fix!!! Make it to where u can have more kids & have more things to do.
