BitLife is a text-based life simulation game. It is available on both mobile and PC. You can download it for free on the App Store and Google Play. The game has in-app purchases and ads. You can buy a 'Bitizen' pass to remove ads and unlock extra features. The typical price for this is a few dollars. It is a one-time purchase, not a subscription.

You play by making choices for a virtual person from birth to death. You decide on their education, career, relationships, and hobbies. The best part is the sheer number of random events. You can become a famous actor, a criminal, or just live a normal life. My favorite part is the 'challenges'. These are weekly goals that give you a specific life to live, like becoming a pop star. It adds a lot of replay value.

Compared to other life sims, BitLife is much deeper. Games like 'InstLife' are similar but feel simpler. BitLife has more detailed events and stories. The interface is also more polished. If you enjoy games where your choices create a unique story, you will like this. I recommend it because no two lives are ever the same. It is perfect for short play sessions on your phone.
