Good, Meh and slow
So I actually really liked the game. I just beat it. Bought the bank, mansion and a yacht, helicopter, the top tier food. It took FOREVER!! But it can be done.
So let’s start with Pros
It is difficult in the sense, that you can’t just level up and expect money. You have to time it where you have a enough saved in the bank to be okay during the negative balance portion.
It’s addicting, if you are a completionist
Cons
Slow slow slow
Devs should really have an option to earn money when you are not on the app.
To make it to the end you have to gamble. Only reason I beat it was that I spammed the slots.
Watching ads to get the income boost. I had to spam that and the health and happiness boost.
Brother gets married 20 billion times. There should be an option to opt out of paying for a gift.
Over all it could use other options to the game to enhance it. Not a bad game but not the best.

Congratulations! You were able to do what few people can do. We are very happy that you enjoyed our game. Thank you for your feedback.
Terrible
I just think this game is farming money off the people who play it. Why do you need to be married for a job opportunity? It’s not realistic and it has no thought to it. It literally teaches nothing. No matter what you do, you’ll have to go into debt every month. And if you get to a bigger job you’ll get paid a lot less but need all kinds of education just to get paid $7,000 less and then you’ll need to get a new car to get promoted? That’s a terrible logic. I give an A for the intent but an F for execution.

Wanted to like it but..
I thought the concept of the game was good. I wanted to like it, however once you move up a bit you can’t go back to cheaper things. What’s that about? I’m real life, you can go backwards sometimes. It was annoying. Also, his mood drains really really fast. I think things need to be improved. Let his mood drain slower, let him go back and get side jobs if he needs to. Setting us up for a trap, when the real world doesn’t work like that.

Disgusting
This is a copy of “From Hero To Zero”
Basically, you’ll almost never make more than the required expenses you have at the higher end jobs, so you’ll have to watch a million ads to hopefully break even and then you’re stuck. I spent over $10 on the game to see if I could get over a bump and turns out, double salary doesn’t double all your income, only your side job income (I was at the part right before owning your own insurance company). So instead of doubling both active jobs, it only doubled my 10k, 20k, etc.
EVEN though the top left of your screen shows you bringing in profit over 180k a month, wasn’t the case. So by the time my 30 minute double salary was up I was losing 68k a month cause the sneaky devs put 45k for the first track of this career and I still had to somehow save up to buy a 900k car. Impossible and really ruined the game for me.
Won’t be spending another dollar.

Wanted to like it
I wanted to, but constantly you climb up the ladder, for what? You’re just going to be more in debt with all your out going expenses than incoming income can keep up with. One job promotion I’m down $1000 a month, the next job promotion (along with the required upgrades/houses/food/etc) I’m down $2k a month, now how the heck does that make sense? There was times being poor at the gas station in the beginning you made MORE profit a month than working at big companies.
And don’t even get me started on how many times your brother will get married throughout the game and how you’ll have to automatically give more and more of your funds to. Along with watching an ad for extra funds, not even long after being done watching, there’s going to be a chance it’ll be your brothers wedding or the wife spent $$ on crap.
And yeah, the health and entertainment bar goes down WAY too fast and becomes too difficult to keep up with, especially when you’re owing money every month and can’t afford upgrades.
All in all, I gave it a chance, watched a crap ton of ads, had my own little company, but still was making negative $$ every month and they expected me to buy a $600k car with negative $$ and 200k??? Heck no, I quit and am going to delete.

Fun for an hour
If ur looking to mess around with an app for a flight or something quick like that then go ahead it’s a pretty cool concept. Become unplayable after the first hour Bc the “cost of living aspects” required for the job you want to advance to cost egregiously more than what you can make in a month. For the last 15 minutes straight I watched adds to earn cash to try to counter this loss caused by the game but with no success. Not a lot of thought went into the actual game mechanics. Just a quick cash grab you see as an ad on social media apps.

Money Trap
This is my second time downloading this game, and I will be the first to admit, it’s addicting. But I’ve yet to find a way for F2P to win this game, the need to purchase additional “money” is insane. I’ve honestly lost track of how many Project Runway ads I watched in an attempt to finally purchase the helicopter but it was insanity.
Download but only with the knowledge you will almost likely need to spend $50+ on things to make it to the end.

Needs some serious balancing
I get that the developers want to make a living out of the game, but when you get to the Bank stage, it is almost impossible to progress without spending a couple of real bucks!!
Or just grinding the starter stage, when you get to make 4K a month, to a point where you outlive the expectancy of your character.
Seriously unbalanced when you think that a high paying mid job gets you more cash than being the CEO of the bank, which is the equivalent on the bank branch! I mean, seriously??? And you can’t even make side jobs after the first job!! Only when you surpass a progression wall of 32k a month for 6 months, with a job that gives you no more than 1,4K a month, that the game thinks about giving you the side job mechanics back! Only after you had to pay 192k, of course, not before!
I really think the developers should go on their second exploitation route and try to get money off cosmetics and pets, because with this system, the game gets really boring after just one hour.
Either establish the side jobs as a progression option throughout the jobs stages or create a savings account mechanic, like investing in business or just playing trader.
Otherwise, don’t waste a couple hours of your life with this frustration. It is not worth it.

I wanted to love it
Again, I wanted to love this game but it was really hard to do so. I purposely waited a few days and played the game first before I left a review and all I can say is, “Why?” Why make it virtually impossible to advance and or maintain yourself in this game without having to spend real money? Your mood and health decreases sooooo fast that you really can’t do much else but push out money to save your self. And heavens forbid you run to the restroom for 3 minutes (literally) and come back, your character is more than likely almost dead.
This game has hugeeeee potential but the set up is placed for (people like me who refuse to spend another cent on a game) fail. Because of that, I had to uninstall it.

Really like playing this game but…
I really like this game, but the sim inside the game is very impatient. It causing my happiness & health to decrease, rapidly causing me to spend more money to raise it up. He wants to automatically be a boss within a few minutes if playing the game. It’s very annoying & makes you lose interest. It would be better if he was a little bit more patient while trying to get to the top. I refuse to spend my own money to get him there.

Perfect
Nice and realistic if your mad you can’t win then… maybe your just not meant to be in the 1% 🤷🏼♂️ get over it ig great work on the development end hope to see more added to the casino
I downloaded it!!!
Your ad stole my bonus from the game I was playing that I actually enjoy. Your crappy ad that I can't press x to get out of stopped a great bonus. So thank you. Thank you soooooo much. Your game is so worth my time to download and waste this time to tell you your ads are garbage. Your game is probably trash. And you need to stop making games. Go do something less technical, maybe go try being a fishmonger? That way you'd leave the rest of society in peace.

Glitches
The game is ok but the glitches have cost me a lot of money. Idk why it keeps randomly going bankrupt. I make over $500k with +$200k profit every month, but somehow I just go bankrupt and have to re-buy everything before I die. I’ve spent real money early game but it’s all been wasted plus all my progress cause it’s glitches and made me bankrupt 5 times for no reason. I wish atleast going back to being homeless meant you sold your things and got back the money like the 2.5M I spent on the mustang but I can’t afford to buy the mustang anymore.

Addicted & Love It BUT… DEVELOPERS PLEASE READ
The game has by far taken over my actual life! It’s so good! BUT… as a woman who has climbed the corporate ladder, and started my own business I find it sexist that I can ONLY PLAY AS A MAN! Update is needed, I read Google responses to see if there is a way and A LOT of players WANT the option to be a female. It’s 2021, and Corporate America when I started in 1998 had Men & Women mangers, CFO’s, CEO’s, AVP’s and VP’s, and I worked in the banking industry (not branch, Corporate. I’m sure it’s a start-up one choice but you have PLENTY of players, as support money, and stores people are paying actual cash for. TIME TO GET WITH THE TIMES as the parrot might say LOL BTW I love that parrot

Good backbone, too many ads & you cannot win.
This game has a good premise to it. Fun to play, but it is a loop and anytime you try to get a little ahead or do something you HAVE to watch another ad. I don’t mind the occasional ad, but in this game every couple of minutes you need to or it starts you over bc you failed again. Then you lose everything you paid for, including your car! It will also randomly make you start over when you think you’re doing good.

Hit The Bank
I love this game, best time killer game. Just wish there was more to it. It’s kinda hard to get the education and not have the job with the money, without going bankrupt. Should make an option to get a divorce or to break up. Also, since I’m a chick. I’d like to have a female character. Also.. does the mother ever die off, like she’s always old. Then assumes I have a girlfriend when I don’t..

Glitch in the matrix
The game is almost impossible to beat without spending money. However I was able to get my last guy up pretty far before it started glitching. One minute I am saving for a custom mini hatchback, the next minute he's bankrupt with over 100,000 coins.
I have not gotten any log in bonuses in two days😢. Not knowing if I am going to log in to play my advanced guy or a broke guy is really frustrating...and makes me want to delete the game!!

Please read..
Okay, first of all, please don’t respond to me with a “this is a hardcore game” because I’m just stating my experience! I’ve tried many times, many lives, and MANY ups and downs… WAY too many.. I only kept doing it because of the good reviews… but this is my experience.
First of all, I start really good! Really amazing, rich, and everything. Then I get bankrupt at some point. After trying ONE more time, I’m going to delete it because so far, everything is repeats… Bankruptcy, rich, poor, rich, poor, rich, poor, and repeat…

Could be great ..
I downloaded this game based off of the ad of “showing up the parents to become a billionaire” however it was nothing like that at all. I completed the tutorial and by the end of it I had a car, job, girl etc however when you buy a phone it will either provide what you need (happinesses, etc) or it will put you in the negative. I thought the job would give me some money to keep up the income of everything I was upgrading but apparently you have to spend coins to upgrade the job although it doesn’t pay you anything to have it ? Long story short you’ll kee upgrading then you’ll go bankrupt and have to start over.

Good game, but it could be better
I love all the life simulation games on the market so I was excited to try this one. It is a decent game, but it is impossible to finish. I managed to get my health and happiness both at 100 and closed the game for like 30 minutes, when I came back everything was around 10 percent. That was insane because how am I supposed to play if every time I blink my health and happiness gets drained. Also, it is impossible not to go bankrupt. I’ve tried playing about 5 times now and each time I go bankrupt.
