A life simulator, played choice by choice.
Career, love, health, and money — from your first breath to your last.
LifeSim is a text-first life simulator for iPhone. Age up through birth, school, career, and family — every decision shapes the story, and nothing is forcing your hand.
Free on iPhone. Requires iOS 17.6 or later.
How it works
Age Up
Tap once a year and watch your character's story unfold across school, work, relationships, and health, resolved through short scenarios with real consequences.
Four core stats
Happiness, Health, Smarts, and Looks move with every choice you make, alongside a full career, relationship, and money history you can always look back on.
Fair by design
The whole game is free and complete on day one. Nothing here is held back to sell to you later, and nothing nags you to come back.
What you get
- Hundreds of life events
- A free base library spanning career, relationships, health, and money, large enough that a full life rarely repeats itself.
- A living world
- Economic booms and downturns, seasons, and community moments unfold around your character year after year — a world that moves, not just a list of scripted events.
- Chaptered life story
- Every year, milestone, and memorable choice is kept in a scrollable life log you can revisit, and share as a memoir once the story ends.
- Content packs, not paywalls
- New event domains arrive as one-time content packs. The free game is complete on its own — packs only add, they never lock away what you already had.
- No dark patterns
- No energy or stamina timers, no forced or interstitial ads, no streak guilt. An optional rewarded ad and a one-time supporter unlock are the only extras.
Common questions
Is LifeSim free?
Yes. The entire core game is free and complete, with every career, relationship, health, and money system included. Optional one-time content packs add new event domains, and a single supporter purchase unlocks all of them plus removes ads, if you choose to buy it.
Are there ads or energy timers?
No forced or interstitial ads, ever, and no energy or stamina mechanics of any kind. If ads exist at all, they are a player-initiated choice, like watching one for a small optional boost, never inserted between actions.
Does LifeSim include crime or graphic content?
No. LifeSim deliberately excludes crime, illegal activity, and graphic violence from every event, in the free game and in every paid pack, so it stays appropriate for a broader audience.
What do I need to run LifeSim?
An iPhone running iOS 17.6 or later. There is no account to create and nothing to configure — open the app and start your first life.
Can I have more than one life?
Yes. When a character dies, you get a life summary and can start a brand-new character immediately. Finished lives stay saved and browsable, so nothing is lost when you move on.
Does LifeSim need an internet connection?
No. LifeSim plays entirely offline, and your character and life history are saved on your device. A connection is only used to process a purchase, if you make one.
