This game is something that I grabbed on sale as it was similar to other games I have played and enjoyed. I was aware others thought highly of it, although some mentioned its repetitive nature. As I picked this up on sale I think for the money it is great, I went through about 4 generations before I started to see characters repeated albeit in different combos. The scenes themselves I often find repeat but at least there is a skip button. Whilst the game itself is fairly straight forward, I think only in my latter few generations have I really started to develop any sort of strategy that pretty much guarantees an A in the end game and therefore unlocking good endings. This game could do will a little more cause and effect to be better, as getting suspended or picked up by the police really has no gameplay ramifications. I feel like I was a teenage exocolonist nails this better, and I like the fact you moved the character which this game lacks. I would also like that if you do something that would boost happiness (such as eat, listen to music etc) or as mentioned earlier get suspended, or go to an R-rated movie, that, this is directly then influencing happiness and parental approval. However, there are many endings, romances (if you wish too) and achievements that I have no hesitation in recommending this game. I am sure I will be playing for many more hours yet.

every lifetime is different-- i can replay this as many times as my heart desires.

[i]Growing Up[/i] has an interesting concept for a game, combining the typical life simulator elements like skill-building, stress management, etc. with minigames, a pretty art style, and great soundtrack. I enjoy the roguelike elements alongside this as you meet a different cast of romancable/friendable characters every life. Each of them has a unique story and with the couple times I had repeat characters, they seem to have different endings depending on either a mix of your choices or RNG, I'm not sure which. The game has potential for more expansion if the developers ever return to it but with the way it is, it's fun for a couple of playthroughs but after a while you start to see repeat events, repetitive gameplay loops, and may not meet the characters you're after due to the game's RNG system. Though as a game that I played a few years ago and picked up again to review, I think it still retains a lot of its charm and novelty even if I don't see myself doing anything more than maybe a second playthrough before shelving this again.

特别好玩的游戏，已刷n周目可玩性很高！如果有图鉴功能就更好了，玩了这么多结局攻略了这么多角色，最后想回顾下都没地方，有点可惜
