User Reviews for The Game of Life 2

Good game, needs more

I love this game so much, it gives me a nostalgic feeling while playing. After reading other reviews I see I am not the only person who feels the game needs to be more versatile and spontaneous. This game is fun but almost every game feels the same. The job choices are always the same, I wish I could pick from a wider selection besides, pop start, robot designer and astronomer. Also it doesn’t feel like it matters what paths I choose when it comes to family or education. I hardly ever get the option to choose housing or families. When I do get to pick a family it’s not fun because I can’t pick twins or get a spontaneous tile that says “you had triplets”. It just feels like I’m constantly playing to get the little icons which isn’t a very interactive experience. I don’t mind how short the games are because they shouldn’t be that long but at the same time, I paid for the app and yet I don’t have any options to play different maps. The options for the different maps if you are going to make me pay for them, should just be separate games. This game would be so much more fun if the puzzle pieces I collected would lead to me unlocking other maps. I understand that the company needs to make money but I still think it’s ridiculous that I pay for the game and there isn’t any actual progress I can make in the game.

Could be improved

I love the game of life and was excited to try this one but I was disappointed in a couple of things, mostly the lack of children. In the four games I have played so far, I have landed on a child spot one time. I think if you didn’t want to develop the maps further and make them longer, which I do recommend it takes like 10 minutes to play one game and I spend 90% of it watching my opponent take their turn, you should add a if you roll 1-3 you get 1 child or pet 4-7 twins or one kid and a pet or two pets, 8-10 triplets at the end of the family path or could customize with 2 kids and a pet or something along those lines. I go down the family path to have kids and I haven’t gotten a child once. Also more career options, let us choose the cards like in the actual board game and lastly houses. I haven’t landed on a house spot one time, partly because I have been trying desperately for kids but that is an essential part of life considering our pegs would die if they lived on the street for their entire lives. If I was able to have kids, I would probably enjoy the game a lot more because it is fun other than those few criticisms

Amazing, and if your looking at this game give it a try!

I love Life 1 so when I saw there was a life 2 I begged my parents to buy it. I play this really often but I think there could be a couple improvements… Like when you get a pet you should be able to get a hamster or bird…. And I think that your pets should have genders! Two more things if you get married I think you should pick the outfit of your bride instead of them staying in the wedding outfit the hole time. And at the end of the game can you see you children/pet go to collage or if it’s your pet like on a car driving with you and your bride/other pets Also I’m sorry all I’m talking about is improving it but I do realy love it I just have lots to say lol🤣

Good game, but prefer original

I bought the original The Game of Life from Marmalade Studios and really enjoyed that. It was pretty close to the classic board game experience, but with the convenience of being digital. Was looking for the option to play Online with Friends, but the only option was to be matched with other players via Facebook. I wanted to play with my family on the other side of the country, we currently do that with Marmalade’s Monopoly app.When I saw that this game offered that functionality, I was excited... until I downloaded and started to play it. It is advertised as a sequel to The Game of Life. I know that I shouldn’t have expected the same experience but I didn’t enjoy the new gamification of the action cards with the different attributes. The graphics also were a turn off for me as they seemed overly simplified and geared towards children. I recognize this is a game and therefore should appeal to children, but I liked the graphics from the original version better. Still bright and colorful but not in an elementary school way. I really wish that they would just add the Online with Friends (in a custom private room) function to the first game.

Amazing game!

I really love this game, there is so much that can happen in the Game of Life 2! Also, someone else said that you should be able to trade attributes (like in Monopoly), I love that idea, so PLEASE add that in the next update, I would really appreciate it! This game always keeps you at the edge of your seat, as there is so much to do! I also love the characters by the way, they are so cute! You can buy a house, get married, and SO much more! You can still play when you retire, whichI think is a great feature! I won’t waste your time, though! It is just like the real game, but better! The real game that we had was from late 1900s, I think! It smelled musty 😅🤣 lol! Seriously though, this game is a lot of fun, and I recommend you get it, it is worth the money! And again, please add trading features, to make my day developers! Thank you!

I’m actually surprised .....

I really enjoy the original game Life 1, and based off the reviews for this new Life 2, I was a bit apprehensive . I have to say that the earning of puzzle pieces, gives an incentive and feel of accomplishment when the game ends, rather then in the original game, if I won, there was no real feel of victory and felt anticlimactic. There is still non stop action in this new version , just like the original , however, the one MAJOR flaw and disappointment I have is they did away with ALL the “player vs player “ competitive games that were such a big and more importantly , FUN component in the original version.How and why they would take out those mini player on player games, I’ll never understand. Those were a major part of the game. Now it’s just spinning the spinner. Really shot themselves In the foot making what could have been a Awesome new game into a decent game. Although, I can’t say I like it more or less, it’s just a coin toss at this point. If they added the competition games to version 2, then that game would have everything I wanted from day 1 in the first game. I always said they should keep score on players to add incentive to want to keep playing, and the puzzle pieces do it. Hope they add the side games to the second version, and I’m a 40 year old female saying this and I love playing. Just sayin.

Developers PLZ read

Hi I love your guys games. I am like the king of monopoly. I love this game as well but I have a few suggestions about how to make the game better. I wish you can trade with people like money for hearts. Also you guys should make like crews where you can create and join on. And like each week is like a separate challenge. One week can see what crew can get the most hearts. The cap for the amount of crew members should be either 10 or 15. All your friends can join your crew. The last suggestion is that I wish you could add the computer in online with friends mode. You can do it in monopoly but not in this game. Also add more houses cars outfits and action cards. Thanks for considering my thoughts. I really a appreciate it. You guys are the best. Keep up the good work on making game of life 2 better.

Great! Except I can’t figure out how to pay back loans.

I really like this game and think it’s an improvement over the first life game because it doesn’t tell you to do real life things like tell another player your favorite book (which, when you’re playing by yourself, was irrelevant and impossible). I also find the transgender option interesting (even though I’m not).The only problem I have is that the game tells you that you have to pay back loans before the end of the game or you will get points taken away (and you do)...but I can’t find any way to actually pay them back, even if I do have the money. I would think that they would have put in a button (like the mortgage button in monopoly) where you can take or pay back loans at will. If anyone can tell me how, I would be grateful!

Great game, but way too glitchy

I really love this game, i downloaded it because I’m in love with the first one. It’s a great game, however, it’s way too glitchy for me. And it’s not even the fact that it happens every so often. It happens SEVERAL time throughout the game to where i have to exit the app out several times or quit and save progress. And what makes the frustrating even more is, when I’m towards the end of the game by the time everyone retires and it starts doing that it won’t even give me the option to pick back up where i left off. Once i exit the game towards the end the game is gone. I have to start over a new one. Extremely frustrating when you’re the winner, and you lose all your attributes, points, etc. i hope this gets fixed soon

Not as described

In the description of the app, it describes how everything is available upon purchase and that access to more content can be purchased with a season pass. That’s what I expected. What I didn’t expect was the game to be so wanting. I remember enjoying the first Life app. I was excited for its sequel especially since they seemed to have added other ways of winning besides having the most money. During the game, players try to gain investment points, career points, and happiness points on top of money. The entire board is literally made up of spaces you can land on to increase any of one of these. The only spaces that are different are action spaces and tax spaces.. On action spaces you spin for any one of these (including the possibility of getting taxed/losing money). So… there really isn’t that much to the game as it claims. That’s it.. that’s literally it to the game. Plus, I think the app might be a little buggy? At one point when I got the marriage event my partner choices wouldn’t disappear from the screen. So I had to continue playing with 3 large squares blocking me from seeing anything. I couldn’t close out of the app because then it would’ve ended the game for everyone. It was really distracting and made this game even less enjoyable.
