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!

This game is amazing so far! I cant wait for what the future holds!
Great game! Can't wait to play the full version
It's good, but needs to cook.
While this game is still in early access, and does obviously still have quite a few small bugs, this game definitely has the potential to overtake the Sims community. I have been a huge player of The Sims ever since the first one came out. I have spent my life upgrading my computers just so I could have the best running Sims files and of course all of the mods and DLC that would have to be purchased. I have played this game a little over 30 hours now, and have to say that I see it being my next obsession for months at a time until I take a year off and then inevitably come back. My favorite type of game!
I have to agree with a lot of the other reviews, this game has GREAT potential but it is currently very buggy (obviously early access and a small team so I totally get it). Ultimately, it's a lovely wholesome sim game with a lot of heart put into it, the building is AMAAAAZING I enjoy the build mode way more than I ever have with the Sims - live mode however is very rough. I look forward to where the game is headed and what it will be like when it's more polished, I can't say currently that I enjoy the game as a whole though. I also am having a lot of difficulties trying to get the Workshop mods to show up in game after the patch, so just bare that in mind if you're a big modder. It's imperfect but it has a lot of promise.
awesome character customization heh
¿Tiene bugs y le faltan cosas por añadir? Sí, pero permite jugar tanto en modo legacy (una única familia) como en rotational (vas saltando de familia en familia), por lo que para mí ya ha ganado muchísimo. Hago esta reseña principalmente para dejar claro a la gente que no tenga los requisitos de sistema mínimos que se da jugado siempre que tengas más procesador que RAM. Le bajas los gráficos y no tienes mucho más lag que el juegador promedio,
So fun and very easy to build!
