Good game

You should add family trees, because people want to keep a track of who's in their family and who’s not, and if you make a family tree people to also control the woman, not only men, but it is nice, to be playing as the men and love how it is about status and working hard to get it.

LOVE it!

In LOVE with this game!! There’s a few glitches but no biggie. I only wish it had difficulty levels as it’s a bit easy at present.

Needs more elements

One of the significant flaws of this game is the lack of essential elements such as titles or any other aspects that would make it more interesting and more relatable to that period

Clothes?

The clothes prices are obviously bugged and according to Reddit, have been for years. It makes it impossible to progress.

Not bad

Pretty good little game but currently fairly basic and too easy. Love the idea- just needs more things to do/difficultly

Fun game

Loved this idea, I do think a few things could be changed if there were ever to be updates.
The cost of clothing becomes way too expensive and stays expensive. Would be nice to choose which tier of clothing to be able to buy from. Then in consequence depending on your choices of clothing and other factors receive social standing points or what not.
That being said the invitations would be fun if you were given a few choices of different tiers, that way you could pass some and others work towards.
The individuals, it would be nice to see their charm, beauty and social skills such as this. That way, those skills and the style of clothes would be how you pass the gatherings from the invitations.
The jobs I understand could move you to different tiers, but once you graduate university how could a 14 year old be an archbishop? Also would be fun if you had to choose specific paths to get to certain jobs. And all the paths had different levels and gave you different benefits for raising your social status.
Someone mentioned this in their review, but once the new generation takes over it changes their scores (intelligence, beauty, age) would be nice if it stayed the same. Also I have some characters disappear like my daughter and wife.
Some interesting events could happen and give the game a little change depending on your choice.
Maybe no one else cares for this idea, but maybe people could get sick and you have to take them to the doctor, or they pass away? Too dark? Then scrap it.
I know it’s not historically accurate buuuuut I would like it if the daughters could inherit the family. Or maybe you can choose the heir?
The matches, what does the blue bar mean at the bottom?
Also I am given some matches but I am not able to marry my children off to them. Why?
Would be nice to see the stats of the matches for my children.

Bunny

Actually so fun + weirdly addicting. It’s such a cute game idea, butttt

- daughters are practically useless, I wish u could earn money from who they marry or something OTHER than the original dowry payment

- I wish relationships existed, ones that could increase and decrease

- I wish that property value increased

- i wish you could choose to move on and which heir to move on with

- I wish you could make notable friends that also helped u increase ur status!!

Please update

The game is enjoyable, but is easy and gets repetitive VERY quickly.

Boring now

It’s get repetitive quick add some more content and better art

Fun but short

It’s a fun game for any Jane Austen fan but I played through it and bought the estate in about 2 to 3 hours.

Great

I love it but I needs more. Gets repetitive fast

No instructions

How do I play this? It won’t let me go past the very beginning. I opened the app, picked a class, got one invitation that made me lose money gambling then nothing. I can’t buy anything, go anywhere/accept invites. I didn’t see anything like the pictures of the game. Help!

Unpolished But Refreshing

It’s hard to find games that scratch the Jane Austen itch! An excellent idea that (mostly) works. A life sim with an historical twist. Balance is the issue here: getting to 99% reputation is far too easy. Paying for university lessons gets you access to several tiers of jobs, so it always made sense to just pick the highest paying job. Should have been tougher to be the Archbishop, lol. Invitations to parties needed to cost energy or some other type of point system to attend; otherwise they were repetitive and had little consequence. There WERE experimental railroads back then, but they didn’t technically exist in the Regency era (but that’s only a minor complaint). :p It’s not very clear when new generations begin, and when they do, they “reset” the ages to husband at 30 and wife at 20. This was probably a project for a budding game dev, so all I can really say is kudos! Hopefully they’ll take what they learned here and make a brand new version or something similar. :)

Quirky and cute

If you enjoy costume drama, particularly Jane Austen adaptions, you’ll enjoy this little game. I was surprised by how addicting it is given it isn’t very modern looking.

Wish it had more

It’s a great concept for a game, but Perhaps if it had more elements to it, it would have been better. If it had more career choices, more courting, and better interaction at parties and within the family itself, it would have been a more enjoyable experience.

good game!

wish there were more things to do though

Minimal, but Good

I found this game while looking for historical games. My expectations weren’t too high, but this game exceeded them! It’s very minimalistic, but it’s an entertaining strategy game with few ads! I completed the game (bought the estate) after about 2 hours, 3 generations, and with my family’s social status at 99%. The reason I gave the game 4 stars is because it’s too short and because the end becomes sort of a grind. Overall, I think you’ll enjoy this game, whether you’re a history fan or just someone trying to kill time. You might as well get it. After all, it’s free!

Love it

I need more Jane Austen themed games!! Love this game. (I can’t stop playing) I never write reviews but had to share how wonderful this game is :)

Super cute and subtle

It’s if Austen loved min-maxing while envisioning her characters in pixel form

Please make another!

Super cute game!

For a free game the ads are easy to skip and it’s a fun time passer! Great job developers.
