Back when I first downloaded it, it was a very fun game but after a while you can see all the paywalls and ads in it which does make it boring eventually. But I do understand that they need the money so 3 stars. ### 4/5 — It does need wifi? *2026-08-20, version 1.51.9* On the App Store it says you can play offline. Wrong. When trying to play it offline it just loads and stops before fully completing. And I have waited. It’s not offline, characters live to an absurd age that is not at all realistic, once up to 400, adopted kids won’t get an education or a job? That doesn’t seem real to me. ### 3/5 — A few issues *2026-08-19, version 1.51.9* I’ve had this app for years and it’s always been quite good, the adverts are a little annoying however my main issue right now is that my characters are living a really long time, like up to 300 years old. Which is not realistic. And whenever I adopt a child it won’t let them have an education or get a job. ### 4/5 — .. *2026-08-18, version 1.51.9* It’s over all a great game however it needs a larger map because i keep running out of houses after the third generation. it’s a great game though and i spend hours on it ### 3/5 — Lil fox 27😝 *2026-08-15, version 1.51.9* I loved this game and got addicted quickly but there are some annoying parts such as when you get the chests I had to go through and choose each person I want to get each thing and when there’s a big family it takes ages. One of my characters got to like 135 and still didn’t die of old age so I had multiple old characters who would realistically be dead and this just kept the family massive. Also when the house gets full people become homeless and stuff but it’s because there’s not enough houses to begin with and there’s a limited time to upgrade it! The houses also placed new characters randomly so they couldn’t be with their family. When I ran for the election thing it kept going back to the same person every for something else they need to do with it. And when I ran out of money I had to borrow from the bank and when my time ran out and I hadn’t payed it all back I had to restart so the whole family I had just made disappeared. 😭😭😡 Lastly I wished we could of chosen the kids names or smth bc a lot of the time I didn’t like some of the names they came up with especially when they had multiple kids you got one good name and like two bad names, then when they grew up they had to all join the same club and you couldn’t choose a different club for each of them.🫠☹️ Sry for how long it is 🙈 Overall it’s a great game and I love it but it needs some changes. 😃 (Especially the amount of ads💀) ### 2/5 — I’m back but with worse reviews *2026-08-15, version 1.51.9* 😭1. Hi I’m back. I have some more reviewing. 2. Please remove : people dying of depression, it makes the game harder and it’s makes me very anagram because I try to have a lot of people but depression keeps killing them. 3. it’s hard for stupid people to get a job for example I had ‘Stupid Esther’ she was 43 and still didn’t have a job. 4. Thank you if you read this I’d really appreciate it😭 ### 3/5 — Diversity? *2026-08-15, version 1.51.9* Nice game but no black/brown characters? ### 3/5 — Too many ads *2026-08-12, version 1.51.9* Way too many adverts. Makes it hard to enjoy the game when there’s an add popping up constantly. It would be such an enjoyable game if there were less of them ### 4/5 — Love this game!! But.. *2026-08-06, version 1.51.9* I really like this game so much that I own many businesses and even have a large family! The thing is that im starting to get bored of my large family and that i really want to make a new family, but i do not want to remove the large family with many businesses that took me like hours to make! I even also removed the 2nd slot since it was a historical family story and i cant get back there since i could only play it for like 5 minutes and the free 2nd slot was gone so i really want new slots coming up so that way i dont have to remove one large family just for a new one! Love this game! ### 4/5 — fix this bug please *2026-08-05, version 1.51.9* Hi, I've had this game for years and it's great, but there's a bug: the characters never die! Please fix it. The characters in the game are completely immortal. ### 4/5 — The ads man *2026-08-03, version 1.51.9* This game would be my favourite mobile game by far but the only thing is there is TOO MANY ADS please and I mean please remove some of the ads but apart from that the game is really really good ### 4/5 — It's good and in love it but it needs some work *2026-07-30, version 1.51.9* I wa playing this and it gave me a mail (in the game a mail symbol poppe up and i clicke it cause it was in the game not a ad, then it told me my phone was damaged cause of a virus so idk what happend but that needs to be fixed ### 3/5 — Could be better *2026-07-28, version 1.51.9* I wish it was less laggy and I wish you can do it way more to see your whole family true and in the ads it looks so interesting and you can move the characters. I thought it would be like that but it’s different and also I don’t like how all the characters look the same and none of them look unique like a kid looks just like their aunt like the same character that’s duplicated. It’s not realistic and it’s really sloppy. Please do better by the way I wish I could just choose the name and last name and I wish they would have more face shapes and body types and everything and it would be better if there are more styles and I wish they would die less from low happiness and the houses were cheaper. Thank you for . ### 2/5 — Too many ads!! *2026-07-27, version 1.51.9* Although the game is really fun, the amount of ads make it completely unbearable! I struggle to continue playing after 5 minutes because there’s an ad literally every minute. I understand that in order to get payed or something you need ads, but it doesn’t mean you need ads after every action. Please reduce the amount of ads! ### 4/5 — Please reduce the ads in the game. *2026-07-26, version 1.51.9* Can you reduce the ads in the game? Every time you play for a while, an advertisement will suddenly appear. ### 3/5 — Je ne comprends pas le but du jeu *2026-07-25* Je ne comprends pas le but du jeu et il n’y a aucun rapport avec la pub 🙂 **Developer response:** Bonjour Fan de One pice, Je suis désolé pour la confusion que vous ressentez concernant le but du jeu.

Why do you have my information!? ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — As to game ratio unbalanced *2026-08-25, version 1.51.9* Ads are insane in the game. Every 30sec boom ad. I feel like I spent more time watching ads than playing the game. ### 1/5 — Malicious App *2026-08-25, version 1.51.9* Keep getting a red notification that redirects me to an internet browser that keeps saying my phone is infected with viruses. ### 1/5 — racist ads and pic *2026-08-16, version 1.51.9* never seen a game advertise with negativity, much less using racial dynamics. so weird. there’s better options, like bit life, which doesn’t use weird racial dynamics to get attention ### 1/5 — racist *2026-08-11, version 1.51.9* played this game before i saw the racist ads for it, there are plenty of better games with this same premise ### 1/5 — Ads and ads and ads *2026-08-07, version 1.51.9* This is an app for Watching ads. Not a game. Unless you are going to pay 30usd to buy the game. Otherwise don’t download ### 1/5 — Two things.. *2026-08-01, version 1.51.9* Fist off where is the tutorial and it’s quite boring like you don’t have an age or you die! ### 1/5 — To much *2026-07-30, version 1.51.9* Way to much ads ### 1/5 — hi *2026-07-29, version 1.51.9* boring, too many ads, uneventful, you don't do much yourself just wait for it to happen to you ### 1/5 — Inconsistent choices *2026-07-27, version 1.51.9* Why only some of the kids get the choice of school? All of the families that I’ve played to far only half of the kids got to go to school, and apparently if they don’t have an education they also never get a job. I don’t get the inconsistency ### 1/5 — Boring *2026-07-25, version 1.51.9* The game was pretty boring and It was so glitchy. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — I love this game it’s so iconic and not spoken about enough or at all *2026-08-17, version 1.51.9* I’m so sorry for what I last sent but this game is amazing and I was stupid I didn’t know I had lost in the game anyways there were so many icons in my family that I think of when a person tha looked like them shows up like Talmadge (flip him), Theodore, Arturo, Madelyn, ward, Allyson, Val, Sheldon, Sydney, Shawn, Virgil, felicity, tanner, Annalise (rip), grace , (rip), Trevor (rip), Jose and many more this game deserves a fandom it’s literally not spoken about at all u deserve a fandom and this games literally so addicting too ### 5/5 — Love it! *2026-08-07, version 1.51.9* I love this game but my characters never get out of prison like mine was for 2 years lost 2 months then 5 years later shes still in but the ads r optional ### 5/5 — I literally got scammed *2026-08-07, version 1.51.9* I got scammed nothing like the ad. I’m deleting this game right away. ### 5/5 — LOVE THIS GAME, *2026-07-17, version 1.51.8* I have had family life for over a year I believe maybe longer and I have always loved it. I will say it needs some fixing. When ever there are twin, triplets , or quadruplets and I choose for some to go to college they all have to go to college and have to do the same thing and that’s annoying when I don’t want that option for them and same for the clubs they join. Also the grandparents like never pass away they live to be like 300 years old and unless it Bible days we need them to pass cause I don’t have enough house to keep that on. lol ### 5/5 — C’est super!!!! *2026-07-14, version 1.51.8* Même si enlever les pubs c’est 30 $!c’est vraiment amusant et c’est correct d’avoir des pubs ### 5/5 — THIS GAME IS SO GOOOOOD *2026-07-11, version 1.51.8* Ok so! When u join it's just you then you meet people and you get to pick what your story is all about (psst u can even chose who you want your kid to marry!) ANDD the best part is.... there's barely anyyyyy ads! The only ads there are is when you wanna chose something for your family and a normal ad every like, 15 mins?!? Whoever you are get this game while it's still in its prime!! ### 5/5 — Love it! *2026-06-23, version 1.51.7* I think it’s really good cause it expresses you before you can become a mom or a dad and I think it’s really realistic and I think it’s really fun and you do get to create your own family tree so you can see long and long and long long or long so I think it’s a really good game really recommended love it ### 5/5 — Kids *2026-06-14, version 1.51.7* I had 1500 kids in this game and they all died to the moon crashing into the neighbour hood ### 5/5 — Really good *2026-06-07, version 1.51.7* Really good it’s very fun ### 5/5 — Yippee *2026-06-02, version 1.51.7* I love this game --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
