Good overall.

Despite the fact it doesn't play like the traditional board game, it's still extremely amusing. However I did find that if you do things in a certain order, you're bound to exceed the necessary point levels to an obnoxious extend every single time, rather than it being a challenge to get there like in most games. This is a game worth a chance, but not worth buying.

LIFE - too routine & life like.

Just like the real lives we lead, this game mimics routine nature. As many before have stated, this game isn't as you'd imagine. This version of LIFE has very small hints of the original board game twisted into time management. There are similarities between Diner Dash & this game considering you’re, rather lazy, brother requires coffee from you & pays you for the task & promptness.

Your mother is needy & apparently lives with you all through your "life", as well as your professor constantly needing your attention through out the first 10 levels of the game. The 10th level requires you to "study" by standing at a book for a period of time, while trying to balance keeping your family happy. As the game progresses each level, you are assigned upgrades. This I don’t like. I like buying my own things, but that's just me.

After I graduated from college & "fell in love", I also started a career. I had saved up enough "Share the Wealth" cards to play a mini-game which quickly dulled after two or three plays. I really didn't even catch the point of the mini game. It appears to be a time waster & nothing more.

I was expecting to find after I had graduated, started a career, & found love, that perhaps my "tasks" would change & become more interesting. Alas, they did not change. At level 11, I found myself terribly bored with this game. The story line is virtually dead. Where Hasbro's “The Game of LIFE” really does leave the possibility of a LIMITLESS story line, Sarbakan seemed to almost entirely drop the ball in imagination.

I admit that I didn’t give the game a chance past 11 levels, but I have to say that I do believe it takes a very bored person to go beyond the level 11, & still find this game enjoyable. I'm going to have to go with the consensus here & give this game two thumbs down.

The sounds are little to none. The graphics do keep in theme with LIFE & are almost cute, but not quite there. However, the game play is unimpressive.

Game of Life - Path to Disappointment

Just as many of you, I had great expectations from this game, having played the actual board version of it a million times before.

So one might accuse my high expectations for the disappointment I feel right now, but be it as it may - this game does not do its real-life board twin ANY justice at all!

Don't get me wrong, I am a big fan of dash games. Diner Dash, Dairy Dash, even Nanny Mania to some extent.
But this game is about as repetitive as it gets. So if they wanted to do a dash-type game - fine - but then they should've made sure there was more variation, more senseful upgrades, and more sense in the game in general.

I mean - for the entire time, this felt like "Family Slave" rather than "Game of Life". Your family members are literally there only to be served by you. What kind of family really works that way? Especially taken into account that they are all basically not even able to throw a paper into a trash bin, or bring a used cup into the kitchen.
And the mother likes chicken waaaaay too much. For the entire time, I heard Leeloo from the Fifth Element saying: "Chicken. Good."

This game could've been SO much better. Even if it stayed the dash-type game that it is right now. But it needs more variation. The way it is now, I got bored after 10-15 minutes.

So sadly, this version is not worth buying in my opinion. Let's hope for a better sequel.

Tips & Tricks for 'The Game of LIFE - Path to Success':

	Login to edit this tip
After you get a car, one of your tasks is to drop your mother off at the store and return to the house. You do tasks for other people, and she will eventually call to have you pick her up. If you are having a hard time keeping everyone happy, you can leave her at the store. She never gets upset with you, and the reward is always 500 points with no bonus, so you get the same points no matter when you pick her up. The same goes for when you take your son to soccer. You can also carry your baby around with you, which keeps them from asking for things. In later levels, this can come in handy.
