BitLife is a popular text-based life simulation game where players control a virtual character from birth to old age. Instead of using complex graphics or action-based gameplay, the game focuses entirely on decision-making. Every year of your character’s life presents new choices that influence their happiness, health, intelligence, relationships, career, and financial status.

Players can choose many different paths. You might study hard and pursue a prestigious profession such as a doctor or lawyer, build a successful business career, become famous, or simply focus on maintaining strong family relationships. The game also includes unexpected events that can change your life’s direction, making each playthrough feel unique and unpredictable.

One of BitLife’s biggest strengths is its replay value. Because every character starts with different circumstances - including nationality, family background, and talents — no two lives are exactly the same. This encourages players to experiment with different strategies and explore “what if” scenarios.
