### 4/5 — Love this game

*2026-02-12, version 1.51*

Definitely an all time favorite got me through 20 hours of bus rides. I humbly request a pvp mode even against bots like super auto pets or the bazaar.

### 3/5 — Pain in the booty

*2025-03-11, version 1.41*

There is no where in game to read Lowlife’s abilities (executables) unless you’re actively in combat. You can’t pause to read them. You have to press and hold the icon to read the description. And if you’re killing villains too quick it will clear the description before you can read it. And if the villain is lasting longer, you don’t really have time there to read the abilities without getting slapped around. 

It’s making this game hard to break into. A screen to read the abilities outside of combat would make this more friendly.

### 4/5 — Fun game, would love to see some more dev

*2025-02-16, version 1.41*

Love the remix, would really like to see remix added to labs, grinders, and raids. 

Would love to see the level limits eased a bit like within 10% of your level. 

Would love to be able to disable a skill from your script’s list. So many times a purple or red are better than the cosmic scripts because the cosmic is bloated with useless skills.

### 4/5 — Pretty good

*2024-02-07, version 1.41*

But my wizard is lv9 and has 103,533/675 xp and is not leveling up

### 3/5 — Cool idea

*2024-01-25, version 1.41*

This was a very cool idea but they took the minimalism too far, to the point that you get new abilities but can’t tell anything about them except for their icons. Even in between missions where you can review the details of your companions there’s nowhere to review what your spells are and what they do. And if there is such a place then I might deduct another star for poor ui design, to be honest. It’s a great idea… but to me not an enjoyable game.

### 4/5 — :)

*2023-09-24, version 1.40*

Just need a little more time

### 5/5 — Amazing game

*2023-08-14, version 1.40*

No ads at all you don’t have to pay to get rid of ads and you can play as much as you want there’s no stamina system. Overall an amazing mobile game definitely give it a try.

### 4/5 — i like it!

*2023-08-02*

its really good and relaxing but i think when you select a heal thingy i.g fountain. i think you should see what it does and then tap the one you want to use it on. otherwise grat game! Would recomend.

### 5/5 — Game is great, but would like option to reset

*2023-07-03, version 1.40*

I really enjoy this game, and I previously had an issue with this game and left a review, and the developer actually responded and fixed the thing I was talking about, which deserves a 5 star review alone. However, it’s been a year or so since I’ve played and would like to start a fresh play thru. For the lowlife of me I cannot figure out how to do it. If there is a way please let me know, I tried deleting the game and reinstalling and nothing works.

### 5/5 — Great Game

*2023-06-28, version 1.40*

Lowlife is a fun game to pick up and play any time, whether you have 5 minutes to kill or a few hours. This game has thoughtful progression and mechanics and paces well. It doesnt fell like a grind; the quests lead you to progress organically through the levels. The in-game script market is great to trade characters. Really everything about this game is awesome.

-----

One criticism i have is that at higher levels (100+), i am seeing some frame rate drop because there is so much going on. Hopefully the dev is getting enough revenue to work on some more optimization in the future.

Another thing, i wish there was a menu where we could drill deeper into the scripts' stats. I would like to be able to see the specific differences in subclasses and be able to see what the different moves do before i use a script. Right now, it seems like the only way to compare scripts in-depth is to vigorously test them in-situ.

Another idea: maybe in the future, there could be more script customization to further develop your team. Maybe like add-on items that can further change parameters or something.

### 3/5 — Auctions are messed

*2023-06-08, version 1.40*

I can’t use the auction house despite having it hooked up to my iCloud, and it’s beginning to get frustrating

### 5/5 — cool

*2023-06-02, version 1.40*

nice

### 4/5 — Great but a bit hard

*2023-05-23, version 1.40*

Overall I think the game is great but I do think the game can get very hard very fast at some points and I personally think that it should be more steady and not instant but I still really enjoy and think the game is fun.

### 5/5 — Underrated

*2023-05-15, version 1.40*

This is a fun game once you understand how to play it like other games with it was more people playing it tho so I can do raids with people one thing I do wish tho is that you are able to unlock more buffs for the team with different abilities.

### 4/5 — Fun way to pass time

*2023-05-12, version 1.40*

Overall, very good game to pass time. Not the easiest to learn how to play but once you get the hang of it, it’s a nice little game to play here and there. The in-app purchase is not required but also not a waste of money if you decide to pay it (just improves some functionalities). 
Somewhat lacking in “endgame” content and gets stale after a certain level, but definitely fun while it lasted.

### 4/5 — Format

*2023-03-30, version 1.40*

Please format for iPad.. I loved playing but not with half screen

### 5/5 — decent

*2023-03-19, version 1.39*

it’s very good requiring adequate skill

### 5/5 — Overshield is so op

*2023-03-17, version 1.39*

Just reaching cosmic scripts so idk if it changes but I dont use anything other than over shield, bubble, cleanse, and gambit. Only ever use healing to use gambit more often and only ever take damage before my first over shield comes up.

Having some buffing abilities could be interesting while still only being the support character. I also havent needed to puck and choose what scripts to use yet, as all content has been easy as long as I didnt zone out because I had no buttons to press.

### 1/5 — Surface of the sun

*2023-03-16, version 1.39*

My phone could cook an egg right now... i doubt that this low graphic simple straightforward game should be making my phone like that unless something fishy is happening.

### 1/5 — Bug

*2023-02-11, version 1.39*

Unable to level up so no progress at all, scripts level up normally

### 1/5 — Pointless

*2023-02-02, version 1.39*

No indication of how to play, even after reading “instructions” and progress is not saved at all.

### 1/5 — Good, but bad

*2022-12-21, version 1.37*

The game was fun, but when I had it installed it would drain 1% every 3min even if the app was closed.

### 1/5 — Don’t understand

*2022-12-20, version 1.37*

Don’t understand what’s going on….Good idea, poor execution

### 1/5 — Bugs galore.

*2022-11-23, version 1.33*

The game WOULD be good if my main character (healer) and progress would actually save! My “scripts” all save, but my healer and the progress of completing a level do not save. I can only do the same level over and over and as soon as I go to the main menu, all progress is wiped. Memories (the currency) is also always wiped. 

This game is cool but does not function. I will update to 5 stars once fixed.

### 1/5 — Fake reviews and terrible game execution

*2022-10-14*

The reviews act as if the games easy to understand and talk about stuff that the developers would obviously say like “hey! Thank you for responding, I found a game breaking bug, so you have any other means of contact so I can tell you the bug without other people reading” or “this game is so much fun, and of course the game isn’t for everyone but being able to play as the healer his such a great take on the game” but there isn’t a tutorial or anything and your just thrown into playing a game with some healing thing that seems to do nothing and before you even get through a minute into the first level it tells you, that you made a fatal mistake and you play again learning nothing to do and proceeding to die over and over again. The game looks good and I’m sure it would be good if you knew what you were doing and the reviews weren’t so fake

**Developer response:** Hello,
I would like to respectfully address some items in your review. I do not have any issue with your experience with the game itself or your rating, I understand that the game might be difficult and confusing for some to pick up, and I am working to plan out an in-game tutorial to make everyone’s first impression of Lowlife much better. This is something that can absolutely be improved.

I do have issues with calling out or singling out other players of Lowlife as being fake or “developers” when that is not the case. In the instance you pointed out about the game-breaking bug, that player spent their own time out of their own day to let me know and reach out to me and report it so that I could fix it. This was not fake (nor is any other review fake). If you are curious, this one report led to the mitigation of 3 bugs with Node Points as listed in the Version 1.17 patch notes, and that was a huge help.

Please use your review space to leave your feedback on Lowlife itself (whether positive or negative), and not other players or their own reviews. They electively spent their own time to write their reviews and give their feedback and that shouldn’t be discounted or minimized.

If you (or anyone!) have any questions about how Lowlife works, or need any kind of help with playing, you can reach out to me directly in the Settings screen (the cog at bottom left of the Main Menu) and I will be glad to assist with my own personal rundown of how to play and also collect more feedback if you’d like to provide it to make Lowlife better for everyone.

-Mike

### 1/5 — ???

*2022-10-12, version 1.26*

Gotta love all the fake reviews that immediately drop on a new game. Anyways, I tried this out and it literally throws you into some random chaos without any instructions or tutorial of any kind and you just die within a few moments not even knowing what to tap or what the heck you’re even supposed to be doing. Excellent job, really captured my attention. (Not really, I uninstalled in less than a minute).

### 1/5 — Too fast no worries explanation

*2022-09-21, version 1.21*

Seems like these 5 star reviews are paid for. There is no tutorial and the game moves too fast to even read what everything does. On top of that the third level is way too hard and you will most likely fail before the boss or on the boss. I’ve gotten new characters of higher rarity but they’re also worse than the basics somehow stat wise…but also the stats are not explained at all anyways so I guess it’s best to just pretend they don’t exist.

### 2/5 — Is there any way to reset the game data?

*2024-07-15, version 1.41*

Played once before and loved it - just redownloaded and cannot for the life of me figure out how to start from the beginning.

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Love This Game!

*2026-04-05, version 1.51*

Keep it up team, this game is great! I love the new look and affects. Keep adding more and this game will pick up a lot more traction I know it. Not many games are able to capture this type of play style as well as you have. It’s missing a few things that’s keeping it from being as good as it can be. I’m sure you will find a way to fill in those gaps. Keep it up!

### 5/5 — Is there a way to reset your account?

*2025-06-30, version 1.50*

Could you add a reset button please, I’m running out of progression space.

### 5/5 — Fun but needs more abilities

*2025-03-27, version 1.41*

The synergies with the spells are cool but if there were more spells with different abilities such as or specific buffs or even offensive healing spells that would be really interesting

### 5/5 — Great free game

*2025-03-17, version 1.41*

Only thing is that we need more people

### 5/5 — Fun game

*2024-10-14, version 1.41*

No ads, takes a bit to figure out but doesn’t take too long to click, and feels like there’s a lot in the free version.

### 5/5 — SACRAFICE!

*2024-08-14, version 1.41*

Can sacrifices be added to the game, I know it would be a bit odd sacrificing other party members to each other but pls

### 5/5 — Chill game

*2024-06-14, version 1.41*

Second time i downloaded it i enjoy it pretty good

### 5/5 — Great game but one bug

*2024-05-25, version 1.41*

It’s a very good and different game than the others. I’m trying to buy something in it but it won’t load. If the devs could fix this it would be great

### 5/5 — An Excellent Sleek Experience

*2023-12-16, version 1.41*

This game deserves more attention! It’s fun and unique with sleek design and gameplay!
I have yet to fully understand the gameplay strategy but it does a really good job of encouraging you to learn.

### 5/5 — Verry fun

*2023-10-05, version 1.40*

If you like playing priest in mmos like wow get this
