About
Hop on, we’re leaving, and your new life awaits! Paralives is a sandbox life simulation game with a great cast of Townies to meet, as well as a vibrant open-world town to explore and make your own. You will feel right at home, should you choose to embark.
Whether you focus on your career, finding love, building a family, or becoming the richest person in town, the story is yours to write in Paralives. But twists and forks in the road await. What will you leave behind?
Thanks to an ever-evolving catalog of furniture, decor and clutter objects, staging the perfect homes for your Parafolks will be a breeze: resize, recolor, stack and place items freely for a tactile building experience.
Paralives allows truly grid-less constructions with curved walls, split-level floors and more. Recreating your house or building an intricate 8-story mansion has never been this easy.
You will be handed an advanced character creator called the Paramaker. Adjust the height of your Parafolks, tweak a wide array of facial and body features, design stylish outfits and create complex personalities. From head to toe, no small detail will be left out!

Amazing game for life simulation and decor!
I personally really like the game :) I've played the sims franchise all my life and love the "freshness" of this game. It is quite buggy and there's much more that needs to be added to have a more interactive game but I dont really mind its current state; however, if you do, just wait for the full release. I would recommend it to people who have already played life sims and are looking for something new ( but beware!). Im really looking forward to seeing the game get to its full potential and hopefully, now that they have more funding, it won't take another 10 years for us to see the results!!
I've waited 7 years for this game and it's even better than I thought, especially as someone who only used the sims to build,
Ainda buga um pouco, mas é bem divertido e tem muito potencial tanto para construção quanto para a simulação de vida.
It is very good even though it's in beta
Muito fofo
Although I'm still not used to the controls Paralives provides unique interactions depending on personality. Paras are more complex yet easier to control. As long as you respect your paras needs gameplay should be smooth.
Paralives tem tudo para ser um ótimo simulador de vida e construção mesmo ainda em acesso antecipado, a comunidade parece unida em fazer mods, o sistema de construção já é melhor do que o sistema do The Sims, e gostei bastante da ambientação e dos personagens, mas o único problema é o sistema de cartas do jogo que poderia ser apenas escolher uma ação já mostrando a porcentagem de sucesso, sem a animação da roleta que fica repetidamente cansativo.
