## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Sound

*2026-08-21*

Sound effect is not doing

### 3/5 — sports draft not working and music career

*2026-06-06*

not letting you go pro in sports after high school and music career won’t open

**Developer response:** Thanks for flagging both!

The music one was on us: if you had a regular job, the music career could dead-end with no clear way to switch. That’s fixed in the next update. You’ll now see a “Quit job & start music” button right there.

For sports, going pro does work, but it depends on age and sport. Soccer, tennis, and boxing open around 16–17. Basketball opens at 19, so straight out of high school you may just be a bit early.

Appreciate you taking the time. The music fix will be live soon :)

### 3/5 — Career / bugs

*2026-05-11*

I feel like it would really help if your overall went up more on sports and the accepting offer on acting doesn't won't also when you go on people sometimes it makes you reload the game again

**Developer response:** Thanks for the detailed feedback, and good news, all three are fixed in our latest update: the acting "Accept Offer" button works, the relationships panel no longer freezes the game when you interact with people, and sports overall now climbs faster in your early pro years. Update and let us know how it feels!

### 4/5 — Good BUT…

*2026-07-26*

I just wanna be able to go on a dating app and find more people, want having kids to be a little easier, and would like to have a confirmation button for break up’s as I’ve broken up by mistake multiple times… love the game in general though I’d say better than Bitlife

**Developer response:** Thanks for the kind words! All three of your asks are in the next update: the dating app now shows more people (a bigger likes budget plus a button to load fresh profiles when you reach the end), trying for a baby works more often, and breaking up or divorcing now asks you to confirm first, so a stray tap can't end things.  Hope you keep enjoying the game!

### 4/5 — Sports

*2026-06-04*

I don’t know how to go pro in sports whenever it says I get a contract theirs nothing their and I’m eventually aged out I feel like for the basketball sport it should just have you enter a draft

**Developer response:** Good news: we just fixed exactly this. You can now declare for the draft straight from college (around ages 21–23) instead of waiting on a contract that never showed up.  It will be available in the latest version. Thanks for flagging it!

### 4/5 — Fun for free. Bug!

*2026-05-08*

First and foremost, this is an enjoyable game that offers some content without any paywalls. Secondly, I discovered a bug in the acting career section that prevents any action from occurring when you click on “accept offer.”

**Developer response:** Hi alligator allie,

Thanks so much for the kind words and for flagging this! You were right, the "Accept Offer" button in the acting career was broken. Found the cause and the fix will be in the next update.

Really appreciate reports like this. Thanks for playing!

### 5/5 — Bugs and Suggestions

*2026-07-07*

Awesome game. Just wish I could purchase more life coins. It’s not letting me do so. 

Also, it would be awesome if I could use god mode to select my stats, family relations (and what they work as, their personalities, etc) and amount of siblings if any, and their appearances at birth. Otherwise have it randomized.
I’d also like the option to customize eyebrows, I noticed I can’t do that in the game. It’s kind of just randomized

More hairstyles, clothes, and accessories would also be nice! Other than that, great game

**Developer response:** Thanks so much, really glad you're enjoying SimLife, and thank you for such a thoughtful list.

Good news on the customization you asked for: a lot of it is already in the game. God Mode lets you set your starting stats, and the family editor lets you choose how many siblings you have (if any) and set your parents' jobs and personalities, with anything you leave untouched rolled randomly, exactly like you suggested. Designing your parents' looks at birth is coming in an upcoming update too.

On eyebrows, you can already customize them when you create a character (open "Customize appearance"), and we're adding the option to change them mid-life at the salon in the next update, along with new clothing and glasses options, since you're right that there wasn't a good way to change those before. More hairstyles and looks are on the list as well.

On the life coins: there isn't a coin purchase in SimLife right now your money is all earned in-game so that's why the store wouldn't let you buy any. We hear you on wanting a way to top up, though, and it's something we're looking at.

Thanks again for the kind words and the detailed feedback, it genuinely helps shape where the game goes. Enjoy your next life!

### 5/5 — Listen up now

*2026-07-03*

Why would you guys make god mode not free anymore you guys are gonna less plays for sure cus I know some peaple like to play this cus everything in the game was free the other part from that the game is amazing

**Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback, and really glad you’re still enjoying the game!!

Just to clarify: the existing God Mode in creation is still available as before, and future updates and content will continue to be free. The new paid option only applies to a new addition we recently introduced (Rewind time)

We made this change to help support ongoing development and improvements, we are a small team that hopes to do this full time one day. But we’re listening closely to feedback like this.

### 5/5 — Great game, great developers

*2026-06-19*

I’ve been in contact with the developer about a couple of bugs and he’s been very helpful and responsive and I can see throughout the updates that he’s constantly working on perfecting this game. I love how in depth this game gets without getting too repetitive, life sims are some of my favorite games :))

**Developer response:** Thank you! This means alot to us, if there is anything you know where to reach us!! :)

### 5/5 — the best life sim game out right now, better than bitlife

*2026-06-17*

im an og bitlife player since 2020, ive seen the game fall. this one has so much promise and is already better than all of the other ones out there.


please keep the soul of this game dont get too greedy and keep it up with the creative updates. this game does everything better than others, from sports to fame. you name it.

**Developer response:** Thank you, this means alot for us! As huge bitlife fans ourself the whole vision with this project is to create a fun and immersive game, where every click does not require a separate expansion pack.

Comments like this makes it worth it to continue creating the best game out there :)

Amazing game just fix some bugs it will be the best life sim

**Developer response:** Thanks you so much! We are working hard on bug hunting mode. If you find any let us know through the feedback form in the app. Lets make it the best one it be together :)

### 5/5 — I love this game

*2026-05-15*

This game is great! This game lets you repeat multiple actions for a greater result not a lot of games let you do that. This game has the potential to be greater than all the other Sim apps out there if they focus on one section at a time this game is great the way it is. I know there may be bugs. I haven’t found any yet but even if there is this product is great thank you developers.

**Developer response:** Thank you, Frank, this means a lot. You've nailed exactly what we're going for: doing one section really well at a time rather than spreading thin. If you ever do hit a bug, please report it, reviews like yours keep us going. Thanks for playing!
