This was a really fun game, I really enjoyed the math of it all and trying to figure everything out. And the different people you could meet and hear their stories.
Teenager Alex is very cute, but not so for mature Alex.
The reason for why I don't recommend this game is mostly because of the lack of checking on it of the producers. I bought it on sale, played it a lot from time to time, trying to get all achievements. The game is good, a little bit repetitive, but good. It's literally what they sell to you; you either like it or you don't.
The thing is: I liked the game. I liked it enough I wanted to complete all achievements.
Problem? There's multiple achivements that are completely bugged. They don't give them to you. There's so many of them I had to replay multiple times to get that it was exhausting. I could still let that slip if just it worked with all of them. But no. There's ONE achievement the game doesn't want me to have even tho I 100% know I did more than once. It's not even the hardest one to get, 16% of the persons that played the game have it. It's just farming!
Tried to contact with them for help but you can guess what happened. The last update they did was in december of 2021 if my mind is not failing me. They don't check the state of the game, I didn't get any answer. So yeah. Will try to do a full run from time to time to see if it decides to work someday but it pains me so much to see I'm at 61 of 62 achievements.
Don't play this game if you like to have them completed.
It's a nice version of real-life sim with a lot of choicec picks.
I don't like the points earning system and the expectations short timing to do, but overall it's nice!
I found it very charming and well presented.
My first run was the run I felt most attached to and that could never be replaced no matter how much I tried.
To help me achievement hunt I had friends give their first runs on my account and it was cute watching everyone get their random rolls in life and what they do.
BUT it did show an rng thing that is often fine but caused a mild huff where my friends actively got NPC rolls that I knew wasn't ideal for them. They would end up fine and enjoy it nonetheless, but it does means its VERY possible for your first game to be middling and possibly turn you away if you aren't connecting to the classmates you were randomly assigned. There's no REAL fix to this, but its worth bringing up that even if you don't feel connected with whoever you're with now, maybe the next game will give you some that you connect with better.
I did not like this game. I've only put like five hours into it, but that was long enough for three playthroughs. All the characters are one-note, and not even in a good way. One character's main trait is that she's fat and everyone makes fun of her for it, which felt kind of weird. Plus, the way that your character is just a combination of your parents with no real way to customize is really annoying. It feels like they only allow you to meet three of the characters every run to force you to replay, but the replay value is bad, and the Candy Crush minigame kind of sucks too.
It's really annoying how your parents seemingly hate you if you go jump rope as a child, which is weird. I get that it's to balance the stress and approval meters, but it feels incredibly unnatural. Plus, your parents are just really fucking annoying. They are constantly making you do things like mow the lawn 8 times in 2 rounds, which if you devote that much time to these things, you will fail your tests, which in the end honestly don't matter that much.
This is just my personal tastes, but I found the music and sound effects to be kind of terrible. I feel like there's no reason for a visual novel level of reading to be accompanied by music with lyrics, I've literally never seen another game do this, it was distracting. I also don't personally love the art style, something I would overlook easily if the game was actually good, but it just isn't.
In general, do not recommend this game, I really wanted to like it, which sucks even more that I can't recommend it. I bought it at a sale price of nine dollars, and I really wish that I had stopped playing in time to return it, instaid of trying to stick it out to see if I would start to like it.
need more of this game
Let me keep my clothes, why do I revert to this dripless adult form when I grow up I WAS A MAGICIAN.
This game could have been better if there had been an option to choose childhood friends. Seeing only the characters I hate for the friend option is annoying and a waste of time for the entire game.
Fun and entertaining, but dark and kinda sinister storylines. I played the first generation in about 5 hrs. SPOILER - The second generation your first character becomes your parent.
LGBTQ+ : I suspect that you cannot get a gay dad pair, but I am going to test it out to see. I tried out a gay mom pair and was able to get that and adopted a son. But I think it may always force you to always have a mom. You can only be gendered as boy or girl.
A real miss for the game is it DOESN'T provide a NAME GENERATOR. I had to use google.
I'm not much for reading instructions so the CANDY CRUSH type EXAM at the end of each semester threw me off. You have to capture each color to win points to raises your grade. Depending on how well you did during the semester you would have been given a certain number of tries for your candy crush. This is annoying, but you get used to it. You can find youtube videos if this still doesn't make sense.
The dialog does repeat itself, even on character two. So, dialog is limited.
R-RATED CONTENT: I didn't get ANY friends or ANY romance in the first character because i turned down the drugs / alcohol lol! And then my would be "friends" all ended up dead or in jail - like seriously - this game is kinda dark. One of my friends "unalived" themself and the other was killed in a gang shooting.
The parents are awful - they do nothing but push you to succeed. One of the dialog's says that they want you to cure cancer and are disappointed in you that aren't already curing cancer and proving for world peace (at 8 yrs old...)
The only way I can see that you can lose the game is if you get three strikes from having low happiness or low parent pride. I'd suggest buying / eating all the food available from town each turn strategically while lowering your parental pride. That way, when you get to your turn you can then match your school tasks against fun tasks. School tasks will always lower happiness and raise parental pride, while fun tasks do the opposite (the art gallery will raise parental pride so check that place out if you want to buy some single turn boosts). Most other place you buy from, I believe will maintain your boost (other than food).
Skills vs School: Don't get trapped in raising side skills vs. school skills. I made this mistake and kept getting D's in school because I had no points to use in candy crush. Raise your school skills and then you'll get tons of turns on candy crush to raise your points towards selecting topics to raise your grade.
Even though I started out with a decent grade, I ended with a D grade, so I ended up being in construction. But at least I was alive lol! You do not get to choose your profession in the end, it kinda ends like MASH, spitting out your future based on your points.
All in all, a fun way to pass the time and challenging enough that I want to beat that freaking candy crush's a** and get better than builder. 7/10 would recommend.
Played my life, chose the best answers I thought, I ended up as a waitress with a random man who has the same name as my partner. 10/10 the odds of getting the same job and partner as real life must be insane.
Really fun game. I like how many options there are and all the possible outcomes.
I got so tired of the brain map
A very pleasant, relaxing game. Perfect when you're looking for something relaxing.
this game is so cute and fun to play. its got a lot of different things you can do and choices as well!
Pretty comfy in its simplicity.
The NPC friends are pretty versatile in personalities and styles, which is great, sadly parents and adult NPCs are static and repeat themselves on second playthrough, and there is no way to fast forward/skip through all that. The choices with parents beyond toddler don't make a difference. The real meat is the other kids.
The navigation and UI in general could be lil bit smoother, but it's no dealbreaker.
The game could use a wide variety of "overall" statistics, beyond what skills you have done in the past lives. Family tree etc. Chinese Parents do it pretty well.
What chinese parents don't do well, this game does, and vice versa.
It's very easy to think this is your final character, only to end up going "ah, I guess I can do one more".
sweet
Wish this had a bit more detail. Feels like the kid ages up way too quickly. Though, it seems like a fairly solid game.
Fun fun
น่าเบื่อนิดหน่อย
This game is pretty much boring, I've played only several hours and have no desire to continue. The game just leads you to a story with limited control over.
60 hours is a frankly insane amount to have played this game but something about it really scratches an itch in my brain. Great for when you're sick and can't concentrate much and need a distraction to pass the time. When it hits it hits.
Well, it's fine but let me pretend I have my own personal life and never played stuff like that.
good
good
i'm revisiting this game and i still love it! such a fantastic branching life sim.
꽤 재밌는 게임입니다. 머리도 컨트롤도 필요없으면서 몰입감있는 게임을 찾고 있었는데, 딱 맞는 게임이었습니다. 플레이어가 태어나기 이전부터 아마도 학창시절까지, 느낌적이고 전략적인 선택과 소소한 퍼즐로 진행할 수 있도록 구성되어 있는데, 나름 고심하게 만드는 요소가 있어 재밌습니다. 다만 아직 1회차 중이라 전략성이 의미가 있는지 살짝 의구심이 들지만, 아직은 2회차도 기대됩니다. 특히 아트는 대단히 게임답고 훌륭합니다.
약간의 아쉬운 점은,
- 액션 포인트로 수행하는 항목들도 스킬 목록에 포함해주세요. 현재 남은 액션 포인트로 할 수 있는 찾으려면 전 맵을 돌아다녀야 해요. 심지어 학교에 있을 때는 동네에서 무엇을 할 수 있는지 알 수 없기 때문에 번거롭네요.
- 가끔 실수로 액션 포인트를 전혀 쓰지 않고 하루를 넘기는 경우가 있는데, 게임에서 경고를 해주면 좋겠어요. 다음 턴으로 넘어가는 것도 아닌데, 이벤트보다가 실수로 하루를 넘기는 경우가 저는 꽤 있었습니다. 약간 강박증이 생기려고 합니다.
- 한국어 지원을 바랍니다. 영어가 많이 어렵진 않습니다만... 직접 한글 패치라도 만들고 싶네요.
- 각 주기가 짧다는 느낌이 있습니다. 지금 중학생인데, 특히 유아기는 너무 순식간에 지나가서 아쉽습니다. 응애 응애
- 능력치 최대값을 계속 키우고 있는데, 어떤 의미가 있는지 잘 모르겠어요. 지능이 높다고 시험을 잘 보는 것 같지도 않고요.
참신한 게임이라고 생각하고 (다른 스팀 리뷰를 보니 Chinese Parents 라는 게임과 시스템이 유사하다는군요.), 기대했던 것보다 완성도가 높아서 놀랐습니다. 프린세스 메이커나 졸업 같은 게임도 좋아하는 게이머에게 추천합니다.
Great life sim, love the 90s setting.
There's just something about the game that really hits for me. Not an emotional sort of hit so much as just, I adore the concept and execution. If you have ever played Chinese Parents, it is basically the same idea but in 80s/90s America. I do wish there was a way of just keeping a log of all of your previous characters though. Whilst it is nice too have your previous run become the parents of the following run, it would be nice to have a family tree showing who you had and where you ended up in each one.
honestly this game is amazing. theres a lot more npcs than I expected and the story lines are great
It's decent, but not highly replayable in my opinion. Good for a couple nights to breeze through then never really touch again (in my experience)
Sooooo cozy.
I love Life Simulation games and was rlly interested in this one. I needed to do one olay through to get the hang of things but now I feel like I am quite ok at it. It has that addiction level of playing the sims 4 for multiple hours and then waiting some time to do the same thing again. I would reccomend it as always something new happens.
:)
This feels like a way worse copy of Chinese Parents. Honestly, just play Chinese Parents. The humor is better, the graphics feel more personal, and there are more features than this more polished-looking game. I'm quite upset I spent money to buy this game, played it, and can't refund it anymore.
So the main gimmick gets old pretty quick. This is essentially a visual novel with some resource management that can be frustratingly difficult when you don't know what you're doing and really, really boring when you do. After your first life, you'll likely find yourself skipping most of the content until you meet a new character, something entirely random.
Unless you really like Candy Crush, watch a Let's Play instead.
I got this game because it reminded me of The Sims which is another huge personal favorite. While it's not exactly the same as The Sims, it is equally addicting. I replayed so many times just so I could hunt down all the achievements and see everyone's stories. My personal favorites are Nathan and Vivica but there was something to like in almost everyone and I had so much fun befriending and romancing them all. I'll probably be back to check out some of the careers I never got around to as well as finally romance Alex and Jake. This game was a very good friend to me for quite a while this year. I'm very happy I discovered it. It was fun, it made me think, it made me cry, it delivered on so many different levels. Wholeheartedly recommend!
I like this game a lot for both the puzzle like aspects and storytelling. All the character's stories are unique in their own regards and really do draw you in when it counts. Plus, I love how the choices you make change the way you turn out as an adult.
Really fun with cute story lines. Some of the gameplay can be repetitive. Its cool that you continue on as your character's kid, but it sucks that the character you previously played as has no hint of the personality you had and is just the same generic parents you start with but with the skin of your parents
Overall, I don't think this game is that good.
Its more of a clicking game to get points to buy study stuff, then do a Candy Crush like minigame three times.
The game has no challenge, the characters are very blank and don't feel like actual characters. Like your mom and dad only give you Quests, and it doesn't matter if you do them or not.
It's not possible to lose in any way. You don't get a choice in relationships either. out of the three non family characters all three of them wanted to date me. When two of them I tried to be rude too. (Most choices are only nice ones.)
you cannot be rude or anything. Like you gotta be the Nice guy that helps everyone. The guy that gets good grades.
This is more for those who enjoy a good relaxing visual novel rather than a life sim. The choices you make (can) matter, but not to a greater extent to what you expect. Essentially, if you choose the wrong dialogue you can risk losing the couple of friends you attempt to make (which are RNG by the way). What really makes this game shine is its inclusion and diversity. You have a solid mixture of individuals with different preferences and values. You get to choose if you want to be more close to them or terminate the friendship.
Again, this is more of a low tier demo life sim and a chose your path visual novel. Which, is still fun if you're marketing to the correct people. It is frustrating that you are only able to really choose up to three friends per session and between those friends you get to choose if you would like to actually marry them. I do like how once you do finish a play through, you can start again with those same parents. What I don't like is that they are the same generic parents as before (with similar if not the same rehashed dialogue). It would have been really fun and creative to see the personalities change depending on what you chose.
The game also leans heavy with puzzles, reminding me of candy crush. You have to play this game as your "exams" and while it was fun at first, it can get tiring after awhile. It would be nice to see other puzzles instead or multiple choice on past decisions the player had to make. However, I do enjoy choosing where to put my "points" after each day and determining which path my character will ultimately go.
I think this is a great start to a game but ultimately needs more options, more puzzles (or something different for exams), and more writing creativity involved. It's a good start, and I hope to see it....grow up.
Anyway, I found this slightly addictive and fun and the dialogue is smooth (though frustratingly limited and rng). It's not really much of a "choices matter" game. But it is a fun simulation that reminds me of a visual novel. It is re-playable and there is no confusing story or dialogue (though some of them can feel lackluster). It isn't a favorite of mine but it is fun and I think others should give it a try. It's fun just watching a character grow up and I like the idea. I just think it can be better.
Good wholesome fun and very satisfying to play.
i love the's game
Extremely cosy, simplistic game play, beautiful soundtrack, and a gorgeous art style.
Growing Up is one of those games that you pick up now and then, really wish there was more content to this game because it's got a great premise - would love maybe a continuation where we'd get to see our characters an the in-game ones go through university or getting a full time job but I also get why it's capped until the end of high school.
Overall, love this game <3
It's not really a life sim. You're forced down a fairly narrow path and occasionally tested on your Candy Crush skill.
Nice life sim, enjoyable story of growing up, love to meet, know about different characters' stories.
Easy to play and surprisingly addictive!
Picked up while it was on sale. Overall, it's not a bad game, it allows you to turn your mind off for a bit and not have to really think about what you're playing.
The only thing I don't care for is that after you start your second "play-through", the character you watched grow up and build relationships with, just turns into their lousy parents no matter what; wish that you were allowed to keep your character's personality once they become parents. Other than that, it's a pretty decent cozy game to pass the time with.
the mini-games get repedetive and i wish there was a way to choose which characters you meet, but aside from that its a great game
It's pretty good, but unfortunately has some noticeable flaws that are apparent even on your second life. However, despite some repetition from the adult side characters (very immersion breaking even ignoring 90's time loop as a whole [and no, it's not one of THOSE games]), the stories of your school friends are actually quite well done. All of the ones I've experienced so far; Nathan, Bobbie, Richard, and Alicia, all felt very personal and believable.
As for the game play, it's like those old Japanese Tokimeki Memorial games. You schedule tasks and raise stats through a roll of a dice. You also manage money, happiness, and the expectations of your parents. The Brain map is kinda fun and gets better once you understand the game. Exams aren't very fun, but neither are they irl, so I give them a slight pass.
I know it would have been like 3 times the work, but if the adults had a bit more randomness like the school friends, this game would easily be one of the best of its genre. That is really my only complaint. Again it's more a Trainer than a dating sim, although its narrative highs do come from those friendships and potential romances.
