Real Life：Choices Simulator

I’ve been looking for a replacement from BitLife. Ever since they sold it, the game has been boring. This game looked interesting, but it’s basically just ads. I like how it looks and the idea behind it, but it seems like you literally can’t do anything unless you watch an ad. Like with school, my grades are bad because I can’t study (from what I see), but I can go to the library and read a book (watch an ad), but since I don’t want to just sit there watching ads, I haven’t really seen it if makes a difference to my grades. I interact with the other characters and the relationships barely change, but maybe I’m not interacting enough. Point is, you’re either going to be stuck watching videos over and over to do anything (I don’t remember BitLife having those many ads in the free game) or you fork over money to not have to watch ads to do basic stuff. I don’t know if that’s even true because I think it’s bad business practice to have your customer having to pay to get rid of ads because you can’t do anything without watching ads. BitLife wasn’t this greedy, which is why people loved it so much. I’m not sure how long this game has been out, but if I’m already frustrated and thinking about paying to remove ads just to play within the first five minutes, I can’t say it’s a good game. It’s mostly got 3 stars because the graphics are nice and it’s a type of game I like. If it’s already this greedy, I can’t imagine where it’ll be in a few years.

The newest update has made for a really fun game! It’s very detailed and precise. I find myself spending more time doing things before aging up. There’s definitely been a lot of improvement. The creators really took note of the reviews and have made a really fun and enjoyable game. I’m obsessed! **Previous Review** This is really a very fun game. There are just so many ads. I think it’s new so, it makes sense, but it’s almost unbearable. There are more ads in this game then there are in those random competitor games. Every five clicks or so and there’s an ad. I really like the art though and how the characters look like bitmojis. I also like that we can play as our characters kids on and on and continue the dynasty. There are just some inconsistencies within game play here and there. Deaths don’t really count for anything—which is why I think almost every sing one of my characters children die all of the time. When a character gets cheated on you don’t really get the option to break up or anything. You can also only decide to have kids with someone if you’re married—and even then it’s like having kids is rare. I’d like to see more cause and effect type things. More things to do. And I wish achievements weren’t per character you play as but in general. I know a lot of these things are to be developed as the game progresses but these are things I really want to see improved and worked on.

I thought I posted a review but I can’t find it. Might be because it was too long so I’ll try to summarize. This game reminds me of when BitLife was good. It doesn’t have any of the gimmick stuff that BitLife added later like Mafia or Royalty or all the reskins of the Music career. I like that this isn’t just a BitLife clone, it has its own character and I like that we can have threesomes without the game being judgmental about it. I’ve encountered some issues like the crashing, a minor bug where I left and when I came back my kids were in the wrong order, and fact that I haven’t found any way to improve my elementary school grades, and this weird prison event that keeps popping up when I’m a young child, but my main critique is a lack of consequence. Deaths don’t feel like they have weight since your character and those around them don’t lose happiness or gain stress and dead loves ones just disappear from the relationship menu instead of getting graves like in BitLife. Also cheating didn’t really seem to have a consequence as my character had a baby by another woman and my wife didn’t react.
