Afteryears
Read full descriptionHide full description
Every choice leaves a trace. Afteryears is a life simulation game where small decisions can shape the decades ahead. Start at age 18 and experience a life filled with friendships, relationships, career choices, money, health, habits and unexpected events. Some decisions bring immediate rewards. Others quietly change what may happen years later. There is no perfect path. Work harder and your career may grow — but so can stress. Stay up late with friends and strengthen your relationships — while slowly forming new habits. Save your money, take risks, fall in love, change careers, build a family, or simply choose a different way to live. Your past is never completely forgotten. YOUR CHOICES HAVE CONSEQUENCES Events are influenced by your previous decisions, habits, relationships and life history. The same situation may lead to very different futures in different lives. DISCOVER HIDDEN CONNECTIONS Not every consequence is shown immediately. A choice made in your twenties may quietly influence an event many years later. LIVE A DIFFERENT LIFE EACH TIME Careers, relationships, health, finances and random events combine to create different paths. There is no single correct way to live. BUILD YOUR LIFE STORY Important moments are remembered as your personal timeline grows from year to year. PLAY AT YOUR OWN PACE Afteryears is designed as a single-player experience that can be paused and continued whenever you want. Start your life at 18. Where it goes from there is up to you.

Your life doesn’t reset when things get messy. THRIIIVE is a deep life simulation where the choices you make can follow you for years. Build a career. Fall in love. Start a family. Buy a home. Travel. Build wealth. Chase fame. Start a business. Or watch everything go left. Lose your job. Fall behind on bills. Damage relationships. Face health problems. Deal with court, probation, custody issues, housing instability, addiction, bad decisions and the consequences that come after them. Then figure out what happens next. ONE LIFE. CONNECTED CONSEQUENCES. Your career affects your money. Your record can affect your opportunities. Your health can affect your work and relationships. Your finances affect where and how you live. Your choices can affect your family. And rebuilding takes more than tapping “start over.” LIVE MORE THAN ONE KIND OF LIFE • Build careers across different industries and skill paths • Form friendships, relationships and families • Manage money, banking, credit, bills and debt • Rent, own, move and deal with changing living situations • Buy, finance, maintain and customize vehicles • Travel and explore different places • Build businesses and pursue wealth • Navigate health, reproduction and emotional wellbeing • Deal with legal trouble, records and reentry • Survive financial hardship and rebuild after setbacks • Pursue fame, influence and unconventional opportunities Some lives become comfortable. Some become chaotic. Some fall apart completely. THRIIIVE is about what you do next.
