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.
