Fixes and improvements
Run of Life is a quirky and surprisingly philosophical entry in the 'choice-based runner' genre. The core loop involves navigating a path while making decisions that either age your character up or down. Picking up healthy food or exercise equipment keeps you young, while 'luxury' traps or unhealthy habits age you toward a geriatric state. The goal is to reach the 'stairway to heaven' at the end of the level in the best possible shape.
While the graphics are standard for hyper-casual titles, the humor and the variety of life stages make it engaging. It’s a literal representation of life's trade-offs, and there's a certain satisfaction in successfully de-aging your character from a 90-year-old back to a fit 20-year-old just before the finish line. It doesn't have deep mechanical complexity, but for a quick burst of fun that makes you think about your daily choices, it’s a solid pick.
Dynamic character aging system
Humorous and relatable life choices
Simple one-touch controls
Multiple unlockable skins and environments
Prioritize the 'Magic Water' and 'Exercise' gates. These offer the largest age reduction. Avoid the 'TV' and 'Wine' traps which can age you by 10 years in a single hit!
Your score multiplier at the finish line is based on how young you are. The younger your final age, the more 'Life Points' you earn to upgrade your starting health and speed.
If you age past the limit, your character will expire before reaching the finish line, and you will need to restart the level.
This is a good game, but, like the title says, it has some problems. I like playing this game, but it can become very annoying when almost every move you make it’s gonna get you an ad. Please fix this problem. Also, when you play it, you are almost always white and blonde. Not everybody is white and blonde. Please make more skins. I also have a question. Is playing a game gonna age you? No. So, why does it age you in the choice levels? So you’re saying playing this game will age you? No. Then why do games age you? Other than these problems, so far, there is really no problems. I would request to add a pet house. What I mean is you know how you get a choice to get a baby in some levels? Maybe you can do that expect with a pet choice. Walking your pet will de-age you, right? That’s all I gotta say. It’s a good game to pass your time with and I recommend downloading it. Thank you to Voodoo, and everyone who helped make this game! -PearlFlowerPup
So, I’ve played this game for a while and am DEEPLY disturbed that it’s basically the same thing over. It’s a fun game, but not really something you want to play over and over. I am a ten year old, and other kids/adults out there, this game is so not worth it. You basically just walk, go up some steps, sometimes get a new character and there is really nothing else to it. If I were you, just go and play some Roblox which is really fun y'all. DON’T PLAY THIS GAME. And, why I put five stars was because it would show up. And, when I first got it I would tap the app and it would show up and the screen went completely black. I had to delete and redownload it for it to actually work. SO ANNOYING. And then if you play for thirty minutes, you will have watched 200 ads. Come on! It’s a LOT of ads
So ok I love it so much but when I try to stay young some times It will keep the same age and I was 10 on it there was like 5 good choices and believe me I chose those 5 good choices and I WAS STILL ten and another thing I was like trying to get the good people mover and I was free but it chose an ad I watched for like 30 seconds and it didn’t even let me do it and I got so irritated so I closed out of the game and 2hrs later I got back on and it started me over like the whole level so I deleted it and got it back today and it was working so well I hope this isn’t happening to anyone else but I hope you fix this so other people don’t complain and doesn’t have to many complaints but overall I love the game soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much please keep making more and no more glitches please but that is all I hope you keep working hard and keep making people happy 😊 bye for now❤️
OK soooooooooooIt is a good game but glitchy and filled with ads I had to delete mine because he glitched and I couldn’t move my character just to fix the glitches course I download it again to this game is the best but fix the glitches I need the glitch is fixed so I can say bye-bye glitch anyway Game was great for me at least I mean I’m writing this review at 5:33 in the morning but so a.m. my phones about to die but fix the glitches please I’m not sure if you’re reading this review to know if you should get the game do you like games re-run like say high heels if not this game is not really for you Because you’re trying to run your life when I first played it I thought you were trying to get older I’m trying to stay young someone to say it’s impossible but it’s possible every level I’ve done I’m I’m I’m gone so have fun and if you don’t get the game that’s fine too I just really suggest a game four-star⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
For Me This App Is So Fun And Helps Me Consume My Time When I’m Waiting Or Just During The Day. I Love The Concept Of This Game And The Ads Don’t Pop Up At Random Times But At Reasonable Times! But There Are Some Glitches/Annoying Things. Some Of The Glitches/Annoying Things Are When Ever I Try To Spin Again At The End Sometimes It Randomly Freezes After I Watch The Ad And That Makes Me Close Out The App Then I Have To Start The Level Over. Another Thing Is That After I Have To Watch A Ad To Unlock A Character It Sometimes Does Not Work And Just Closes Out And I Don’t Get The Character, I Find This Irritating. I Don’t Know If This Only Happens To Me Or Not But If It’s A Real Problem Can You Attempt To Fix These Please? Other Than The Flaws About This App I Love The Game!
This game isn’t horrible, but it has SO MANY ADS. Like, you don’t want to die? AD! You go home for a baby? AD! You get to sit on the bench at the end? AD!! 🤬 WASTE of time, good thing you don’t waste money on this. And then there are GLITCHES! One moment, I’m six months old, the next, my game is stuck. YET THE ADS ON THE BOTTOM MOVE! I am sorry but SOMEBODY needs to fix this because at this point I am going to delete the app. It’s not bad, but the glitches and ads are ridiculous and stupid. If somebody doesn’t fix it after all of these complaints, you’re living with lies. And the ads are completely inappropriate, one was of a shirtless man and a woman. She had to run towards him choosing sleep or a pillow with hearts, if it chose all the pillows it wears a BIKINI! I’m sorry but those ads! And then the whole baby thing!! SOMEBODY SEE THIS. Because this is not okay.
To be seen okay prob 1 : So I accidentally step on the make a baby sign and like I was 15 and like they still made a baby for me and I was hoping that you could get the mom or dad to say you need to get an abortion or smt and prob 2 : too many ads yes I know games are supposed to have ads but like not that many like if I want to you know um like go to the rainbow side , make a baby , sit on the bench setter YOU HAVE TO WATCH AN AD 😭 ✋. Okay most ANNOYING is that when you’re walking on the freaking stairs like suddenly you get AN AD 😭 YES AN ADDDDDDDD A FREAKING ADDDDD . Prob 3 : the game is keeps on repeating and repeating I’m get bored alr 🙄. — your fellow Anna Sofia ♥️ ( I bet the developers are not even gonna look at the reviews so what a the point 🙄)
I’ve been playing this game for a few days, I’ve loved it ever since I downloaded it, but I do have some problems with it. Ok so first what’s the point of collecting the money if you can’t even do anything with it, and when I accidentally go on a path that only has money, I regret it. And second of all, most times I can’t even make it to heaven because there are so many stairs. You have to be at least a kid or a baby which isn’t that fair. And lastly, on the road with the cars and all, the cars go way too fast, and so when I try to collect the useful stuff on the road, there are cars that run me over too fast that I can’t even get the good stuff. So can you fix all this? Thank you.
