Game advice

Very very good game but like I wish more features on the game were free those features would make the game more interesting because more than half of the game you have to pay and that takes the fun away from it so like at least it should be playable fun and still have some payment but not the whole game u need to pay and I would like to see a height system in the game but very high potential

Amazing Text Game

I love this game the best life simulator since bitlife.

Response from developer

Thanks for loving Play This Life, nhjsjsmm! 🫰

Good game! But,

I love this game, but it does have its drawbacks. ex: it doesn’t save a persons life at all, if you close the tab, you have to start a new life. This is minor, but when it says “this person is famous/super famous” it would be cool to know what they are famous for. Everything else is good for me though.

Thanks for loving Play This Life, Idkbro3652! ☺️ You can save your life by going to Life Log > ☰ > Save game. It will Load the life you saved when you reopen the app if you do. We've also noted your suggestion and will keep it in mind for future updates!

Best life sim KNOWN TO MAN

It’s so good, but I also have some ideas for some updates:
- adoption
- the opportunity to choose your main characters sexuality (not really realistic but is chosen by options in early life?)
- moving countries being in the base game!

Thanks!!!

Response from developer

Thanks for loving Play This Life, Theresa! ☺️ In the Legacy Edition, you can choose your play person's sexuality by using the Check Out feature. And yes, we will be adding adoption in a later update. Stay tuned!

Iraqi player

Hello, the game is very nice, but I hope that Arabic will be added to it because I got very tired of translating. I also hope that it will be added that you can start your own project.

Response from developer

Thank you for playing Play This Life, Iraqi player! We will keep your feedback in mind for future updates!
