The only solution is to shut the app off and start anew, which is a bummer if you got rich parents 😐. ### 5/5 — Bacaninha *2026-07-17* Top ### 4/5 — 오류 문의 *2026-06-17* 서민몬스터, 내꿈은정규직, life crush story 세 게임을 꽤 오랜기간 플레이해온 유저입니다. 아이폰에서 해당 게임들을 실행 시 강제 종료되는 문제가 종종 일어납니다. 또한 게임을 실행하려면 애플계정에 로그인해야하는 수고로움이 있어서 너무 귀찮습니다… 저 진짜 장기 플레이 유저고 제가 좋아하는 감성의 모바일인디게임이어서 세 게임을을 너무 좋아하는데 수정좀 해주셨음 좋겠습니다 감사합니다 ### 5/5 — Ауч *2026-05-11* Предупреждение в начале игры было обоснованно 🥲 ### 5/5 — Excelente *2026-03-05, version 2.0.7* Obra de arte ### 1/5 — 내꿈은 확률조작사기 없애기 *2026-02-13* 현실을 떠나서 게임적으로만 보자구요. 직접적으로 관련되어서 현질을 유도하는 것이 아니지만 부모가 어떻게 걸리는지에 대한 확률을 고시 하시고 블록이 어떠한 비율로 생성 되는지 고시 하시죠. 게임 내에 말입니다. 하다보니 인디게임이여도 이러한 규제가 적용 되게끔 활동을 해야 되겠다는 생각이 드네요. ### 4/5 — Enjoyable *2026-01-30, version 2.0.7* Got back into in after a 3 year break. Was super fun. The difficulty curve with the mini games was a bit frustrating, but it added to the fun of the challenging gameplay. ### 5/5 — Evolutiva *2026-01-20, version 2.0.7* Riuscite a fate un aggiornamento sui possibili eventi? ## Frequently asked questions about Life Crush Story ### What is Life Crush Story about?
