### 3/5 — Poderia ter mais atualizações

*2026-08-01*

O jogo é ótimo, acredito que se existisse mais profissões, atualizações referente a os filhos também seria legal, só pra não ficar muito repetitivo. Além de que seria legal também personalizar o personagem, seja deixar ele com barba ou não.

### 4/5 — Хорошая игра, чтобы расслабить мозг

*2026-07-08*

Очень понравилась эта игра своей простой, но в то же время глубиной. Если заморочиться, можно получить разные сценарии одной и той же профессии, перепробовать все варианты исхода развития персонажа и даже найти скрытые достижения. Это очень подкупает. Однако, на данный момент моя галерея полностью собрала, все профессии куплены, достижения почти на максимум собраны, и у меня больше не осталось мотивации играть. Было бы здорово, если бы в игру добавили новые профессии, достижения или какие-то новые трудности (по типу игры за слепого ребенка) + хотелось бы, чтобы в магазин добавили эксклюзивные товары не только для мужской, но и для женской модельки. За это снимаю 1 звезду

### 4/5 — Adding New Features

*2026-06-11*

I love this game so much, but I would like you to add some new features. First, It would be amazing to have spouses of the same gender. I’ve been noticing that it’s the opposite gender of the gender you chose. Secondly, I would like to have the ability to pick what type of hairstyle we like. The game is still very entertaining and amazing! I would recommend it to anyone.

### 4/5 — adicionem essa opção pls

*2026-05-06*

jogo muito legal e bom de passar o tempo mas poderia ter como casar com o mesmo sexo :(

### 2/5 — The game won’t start

*2026-04-16*

I’ve played this game on my old phone, and I decided to download it in my new one, but for some reason the start button never appears, I click everywhere and it never starts, but I love the game😓

### 4/5 — Surprising

*2026-03-12, version 2.4.25*

Surprisingly fun game! I like that you have to figure out what triggers the different life paths and the game doesn’t hold your hand. Lots of replay ability

### 4/5 — Great game!

*2026-02-22, version 2.4.25*

Love this game but the ads on the happiness and money bar are annoying, I can’t see my happiness or money. Please consider fixing that. Other than that the game is amazing and addicting.

### 2/5 — Any other game type of game

*2026-01-22, version 2.4.25*

it’s a weird game very uninteresting and like every other App Store game plus the turning your phone around stuff is weird meaning

### 3/5 — poderiam adicionar essa opção de casar com o mesmo sexo

*2025-12-18*

eu amo esse jogo , mais gostaria dessa opção !

### 4/5 — Great game

*2025-12-17, version 2.4.25*

It’s truly a great game, it’s fun to play and you can play for hours though I wished you could have a tad bit of a longer life, I know it’s supposed to be a speed run of life but maybe if you could spend more time with family that’d be great.

### 2/5 — não deixem a barra de anúncio onde atrapalha a jogabilidade

*2025-11-07*

Eu amava muito esse jogo! Ele é simplesmente divertido e dá para passar horas acompanhando os diferentes finais.
Mas preciso fazer uma crítica: a barra de anúncios cobre a minha vida e o dinheiro, o que atrapalha totalmente a jogabilidade.
É decepcionante, porque antes isso não existia e agora estão simplesmente acabando com o jogo por causa desses anúncios.

### 4/5 — The game is good just mabey add some things?

*2025-09-13, version 2.4.25*

I love it so far! I think you guys should add a choice for gender to marry. That’s rlly it?

### 5/5 — Beautiful game

*2025-08-21, version 2.4.25*

This game is so amazing and beautiful. 
It shows so many experiences and events. 
I am truly inspired by this small development team.

### 5/5 — Fun!

*2026-06-09, version 2.4.25*

Its a surprisingly fun game, wirh a lot of diversity but i do wish i could change skin colours, i can understand how that can be a lot to code in tho. It can get repetitive but I find it fun for a simple way to chill out with a simple game

### 5/5 — 우리 모두 후회없이 행복하게 살아요

### 5/5 — Amazing game!!!

*2026-03-08, version 2.4.25*

Love love love love love. This game is really enjoyable and I hope that one day there will be more updates. It would be so fun if there were more random things that could happen in each life or things like that! I need more!

### 5/5 — 인생을 배웁니다

*2026-01-26*

44세 유저입니다. 이 게임을 통해 인생을 배우게 되네요. 돌이킬 수 없이 달려가기만 하는 시간 속에 삶에서 필요한 선택들, 놓쳐 버린 기회들. 취미와 교우관계 그리고 사랑과 가정. 삶에서 내가 두루두루 챙기지 못하고 맹목적으로 살았다는 것을 반성하게 됩니다. 이 게임을 통해 지난 삶을 돌이켜 보았어요. 그리고 남은 삶을 좀더 건강하고 풍요롭게 살고자 합니다. 개발자님 감사해요.

### 5/5 — 너무 감동적이고 재밌어요ㅠㅠ

*2025-11-30*

옛날에 어렸을때 엄청 유행했던 게임이라 즐겨했었다가 오랜만에 다시 깔아봣거든요?? 예전에는 아무생각 없이 했는데 다시 해보니 너무 짠하고ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ 울엇어요ㅠㅠㅠ 마지막에 인생을 되돌아 보는게 나오거든요? 그때 마지막에 부모님께 감사하다고 멘트가 나오는데 하ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ 그게 진짜 눈물버튼 입니다ㅠㅠ 진짜 말론 표현을 못하겠는데 너무 재밌기도하고 슬퍼요ㅠㅠ 한판에 5분도 안걸리니까 시간나면 꼭해보세요 진짜 슬프고ㅠㅠ 재밌어요

### 5/5 — Отличная игра

*2025-11-10*

В нее приятно играть, похожа на антистресс. Собираешь достижения, на каждую концовку есть разные арты и реплики. Мне очень нравится. Рекомендую ❤️

### 5/5 — 4565

*2025-11-01*

Отлично. И кстати я много где пишу отзывы и меня можно найти по цифрам 4565

### 5/5 — A Hidden Gem

*2025-10-27*

This game is surprisingly addictive and has incredible charm. Each playthrough is short but at the end you genuinely feel that your character lived an entire lifetime. I love how after death there’s a little life review where the game runs backward and there’s commentary from your character reflecting on all of the choices you made. The thing that really makes this game great to me is just how perfectly it creates emotion and conveys the feelings of stages of life and of nostalgia that life brings. I love how each stage of life has a different music set to it that just conveys the raw emotion of each life stage. I love how at the beginning all of the settings are day time and as your character ages it progresses to night time accompanied by slower and more solemn music perfectly symbolizing the reality of heading towards the inevitable death. After the game ends there’s a montage summarizing your character and the clips that play makes you feel pure raw nostalgia that almost can bring you to tears.
I find myself finishing the game and mourning the character I played as if they were a real person which always draws me into playing another run through. 
The developers should be commended on designing such a masterpiece that perfectly captures the pure unadulterated raw emotions that come from living life in such a short simple “jump and click” animated game. This is a truly slept on masterpiece.

### 5/5 — Great game

*2025-09-20, version 2.4.25*

This game is actually so underrated I can’t believe not many people play this. It’s a nice fun game with different endings and other things to change your game play
