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!

Very smooth gameplay, very creative designing for the game and for use. :)
Love this game!!
It seems like it will be a good game, hopefully when it is fully released. I wouldn't have purchased it, if I knew it was early access. Right now, you can't use a lot of the items in the house, like some appliances. I also think that some of the relationship aspects are not working properly, like having a baby. I never got the option to try for a baby in the bed, even though I got the prompt that said my couple can try at anytime to have a baby. So it's kind of disappointing that some of the relationship aspects are not working properly.
För att vara early access så är det riktigt bra. Finns en del buggar och grejer som är irriterande. Men det ordnar de väl upp i en framtida uppdatering?
yes good
This game is far from perfect, and if we are comparing it to The Sims series, Paralives obviously have a long way to go. However, The Sims is created by billion-dollar company meanwhile Paralives is produced by a small team on indie developers. Paralives is able to implement features that is able to rival The Sims, even though the game is currently on Early Access; height slider, ability to upload your own pictures, colour wheel for every almost every customisable objects... the list goes on and on. I can honestly say that I can feel the passion radiating from the developers, and I have faith that the game would get better and better. I wholeheartedly do not believe that people should drop this game immediately, just because the game is still in development, and there is a lot of missing features or bugs. I do think that us, as a community should help the developers make this game even better, by providing feedback, since the developers actually listen to our feedback, unlike a certain billion-dollar developer who keeps locking everything behind a paywall. I look forward to the day that Paralives is able to fully rival The Sims, and I am proud to know that I have been here since Day 1!

I bought this game to simply support the devs. I want them to win. When Maxis first introduced the Sims it was surreal. It is time someone brought that joy back.
Very very good
