The Game of Life

My cousin was still in school so I played with a bot and won. 5 STARS

Totally fun game and try out all the other scenes!

So much fun!

I am beyond disappointed. I loved the Game of Life as a kid, and I loved the digital version when it was designed like the original board game. Now, this version is completely different and the original is no longer on the App Store. Monopoly devs at least had the sense to allow continued digital access to the original game after releasing their own dumb, watered-down Monopoly GO. God forbid the Game of Life devs pay any attention to the generations of players that made this game as popular as it is today. All this version does is cater to 6-year olds and make me feel like an infantile idiot for ever trying to relive fond childhood memories. Specifially: 1. The new design is cheap, childish, and makes it look like a Kroger brand rip-off of the real thing. 2. The minigames are an aimless addition with poor controls, bad graphics, and only make the game feel even more infantile and kitchy. 3. I have zero interest in being forced to play a minigame and likely losing money (see #5) just because another player lands on the space. Go back to straightforward lawsuits and Spin-to-Wins. Player agency is a good thing. 4. It’s so stupid that you only get to buy a starter home/home if you land on certain spaces. Again…player agency. 5. The spin-wheel is poorly balanced/randomized. It’s like when Apple originally randomized playlists and they were TOO random, leading to over-repetition of certain songs and under-repetition of others. Sometime less is more with randomization. I am absolutely floored by the fact that this version of the Game of Life made it through playtesting. And to think I had to PAY for this?? Go play the real thing if you value fun. I want my money back.

I would give it 5 but I lost no complaints on a regular day I would give it 5 but 1 complaint it does not make me on the tip of my seat ready for my next move also you could make more emojis in chat and a button that you can write your strategy on that no one can see

Admittedly I fast forward a lot while playing against the computers but something I’ve noticed is that even though I’ll get the highest paying job and win the most games I lose more often than I win, the amount of money the computers make doesn’t make sense compared to the jobs they have. This probably sounds whiney but why would I bother to play a game that I’m always losing no matter how good I do? Not really worth the time. Truthfully I miss the old version of. It was more simple and more fair

App does not allow you to connect with friends on it. App won’t connect to Facebook, app is useless if you want to play with friends and a waste of money

Just says “App not active: This app is not accessible right now and the app developer is aware of the issue. You will be able to log in when the app is reactivated”

Your games make me wanna vomit !! Period !!

Downloaded specifically to play with a friend and Facebook login fails every time I try to login. Very disappointed! Waste of $4.99!
