ChoiceFlow Game Wiki

Your first life starts as a baby. Play to unlock older starting ages for future characters; you can only start at an age your account has already reached. Choose a name, appearance, personality and starting location, then read your family's starting story.

Free accounts can have three living characters at once. Verified ChoiceFlow Plus members can have six. Characters who have died do not count toward this limit. If Plus ends, you can keep playing your existing characters. Your current limit determines whether you can start another life.

• Check your health, happiness, energy and money before choosing an activity.
• Read the requirements on a locked action to see what your character needs.
• Use Settings to adjust the game and return to character selection when you want to switch lives.

Home contains the school and lifestyle options available at your age. Depending on your button settings, Relationships, Assets, Activities and Shopping can appear on Home or the bottom bar. The relationship shortcut in the bottom navigation bar is called Bonds. Change shortcuts in Settings, Preferences, then Button Layout. Martial Arts and Tennis can also move from Extra to the bottom bar. Moving a shortcut does not remove the feature. Extra on Home contains other options such as martial arts, tennis, pets, travel and vehicle licences.

Use Random if you want a ready-made starting character, then review the result before continuing. Random still respects your unlocked starting ages. Open the personality explanation to compare its skill and relationship effects. A personality can help particular skills grow, but it does not grant a qualification or career.

Choose your city and read the starting situation. Changing the starting age can regenerate that situation, so review the family story after making your final choices.

At ages 7 to 17, open a living parent’s relationship card and look for Ask for Allowance. Accept the proposed challenge before doing its named tasks. The option depends on your current allowance and home situation; asking does not immediately award the money.

The level-30 creation cap applies to ordinary starting skills, not later training. A new life can progress beyond it. Review selected Karma bonuses separately. Select owned starting stat, cash and learning bonuses during creation to apply them; creation unlocks such as Family Architect work through ownership.

1. Read your starting story and meet the family members available to your character.
2. Try an activity available at your age. Its card explains the energy cost and what you can gain.
3. Leave energy for school, work, training or other commitments once they become available.
4. Read any event and make your choice before moving on.
5. Tap New Year when you are ready to advance your character's age and process the year's changes. Energy is restored, but annual health effects can leave it below your maximum.

Your choices happen within the current year. New Year advances your character's age. Activity duration labels do not advance your age, and leaving the app open does not age your character in real time.

Read the reason beside New Year and finish the action it names. An unfinished interview or event, a school choice, a required final exam or a completed degree waiting for graduation can stop the year advancing. Open the relevant screen to resolve it rather than repeating unrelated activities.

An interrupted sports match must also be resumed or simulated to completion. Once the year finishes, review the new age, school or work notices and annual payments before choosing more activities.

The Communities streak banner opens your milestone roadmap and saved gifts. Its login days are real days, while New Year advances character age. Advancing several character years does not create extra login days. Read a gift’s rewards and choose the skill for its XP when asked.

The Communities banner and roadmap show your Personal best. You can collect the gift for reaching 365 days once per account. It includes 50,000,000, 1,000 Karma, up to 100 Energy, 100 spare naps and 500,000 base XP for a skill you choose.

If the gap between logins is fully covered by saved days, the streak increases by one when you return. It does not add every missed day to the streak. Without enough protection, the current streak starts again at one.

Open Stats to review your character's personality, interests, qualifications, reputation, combat progress and health.

Settings, then Achievements, shows account achievements when you are signed in.

During character creation, open the Karma Store to see available bonuses, their costs and effects. Choose which owned bonuses to apply before starting your life.

Open Mood Analysis in Stats to see the circumstances helping or hurting your character. Mood and Happiness are different: Happiness moves toward the mood score during yearly processing. Improving a listed problem can help future wellbeing without instantly replacing your current Happiness.

Expand an achievement category and then an achievement to read its requirement and available progress. These are account records across lives. Communities also has Minigame and Wealth Leaderboards. Set your public Game Username in Settings, Profile, Account before competing; the username is separate from your character’s name.

Karma is an account balance, not wallet money. A successful Karma Store purchase permanently unlocks that bonus for future lives. Select owned bonuses in creation to apply them to the new character. Stats lists this life’s Active Karma Bonuses. Birth-only unlocks and heir blessings have different application rules.

For Happiness 50 and mood 70, the mood-convergence calculation adds three points before other yearly changes. A larger gap cannot move Happiness by more than five points through this convergence term alone.

Quick Learner costs 500 Karma and applies a ×1.5 learning multiplier when selected for the life. It is a reusable owned unlock, not a cash purchase and not an immediate level increase for every existing character.

Activities and life experiences can grant XP. Fitness, Discipline, Resilience, Intelligence, Looks, Creativity, Charisma, Technical Skills and Business Skills use levels from 1 to 100. Tennis has separate skill progress. Martial arts classes build discipline-specific rank progress and tests. Happiness, mood, health and energy are separate wellbeing and resource readings; their values do not mean the same thing as a trained skill level.

Choose activities related to the skills you want to build. Vary what you do: repeating one activity can reduce its rewards. Age, relevant skill, equipment, health and the activity's outcome can affect the result.

Martial Arts progress also depends on the discipline you train. Football and other sports have abilities and ratings beyond the skills listed here.

The level on a skill is earned progress. A separate plus or minus value is a modifier, not another permanent level. For item bonuses, open Assets, Equipped Bonus Items and choose the owned items to equip. Clothing has its own equipped slots. Buying several useful items does not automatically activate all their bonuses.

Check the result after an activity: personality, schooling and medical learning effects can change the XP that actually lands. A helpful item does not replace a required licence, degree or other action-specific qualification.

Repeated activities linked to an interest can discover it over time. Interest discovery is separate from reaching a skill level, and different characters can need different amounts of relevant experience. Check Stats, Interests for what this life has discovered.

An activity’s rolled base XP can be changed by item enhancement, repetition, performance and capability effects. The game then applies the learning modifiers for this character, including personality, an active Karma learning bonus, medical learning effects and an applicable school bonus. The final gain is rounded and capped.

The worked threshold examples assume the stated amount actually lands. They do not promise a particular activity will always award that amount.

Use Stats for the nine core skill levels and Tennis progress. Use the martial arts discipline screen for rank progress and tests. Fitness, a belt, Tennis rank, team-sport ability, MMA skill and Happiness each describe a different part of the character.

Check the XP remaining under a core skill’s progress bar. Football also shows XP to the next level when you expand a skill that can still improve. An activity result can show the XP you gained, any level change and the XP remaining to the next level.

Open Activities and choose a category or search for something to do. The choices change with age. Babies have early development activities, children have play and learning, teens gain social activities and small earning opportunities, and adults have more work, creative, fitness and personal options.

• Read the reward and energy information before starting.
• Check equipment requirements before buying an item. Different activities need different tools.
• If an activity is locked, follow its stated age, skill, item or other requirement.
• Mix your activities rather than spending the entire year repeating the same action.

Schoolwork and work activities can open a short game. Read its instructions before playing; your result can affect the rewards. Some activities also lead to an event or another decision.

When a card shows XP before performance, the estimate includes applicable repetition and character modifiers. Your result can still change with performance. Work previews can show XP before a challenge bonus, while school activities with a minigame can show a range of outcomes.

Use Can Do to filter for available activities and Earns $ to narrow the list to earning opportunities. Search matches names, descriptions and categories. If Crime appears empty, check Hide Crime: that preference can hide the category’s activities even though the feature exists.

In Communities, open Daily Challenges and read each task before spending energy. Once completed, choose Claim Rewards and select the skill that receives its XP. Reward contents vary, and Karma goes to your account. Reopening on the same day preserves challenge progress; New Year is not the daily reset.

Completing at least one challenge on a local calendar day counts as one play day. For every five play days, you earn 15,000 in your wallet, five basic energy drinks and 3 Karma. The days can be spread out. The Daily Challenges card shows how many are left. If you are offline, the Karma credit to your account can arrive after you reconnect.

Open Communities, Minigame Mastery to inspect the games and your highest reached levels, using its category and ranking filters. Minigame levels are a separate record from your character’s skill levels. Continue through the school or work activities that launch those games.

Complete the displayed task, then choose Claim Rewards and a skill. The current reward picker offers the nine core skills. It does not offer Tennis, martial arts rank progress or the visible Happiness score. Read the actual reward card for the amount instead of assuming every task has the same reward.

The repetition calculation looks at recent recorded activities and the ones that actually paid XP. Adults also accumulate a paid count for each activity within the character year. The variety bonus is about changing rewarded activities, so repeating an unavailable or failed action is not a reliable way to improve the next reward.

Use the education button on Home; it may show your school, Higher Education or Continue Studies. In elementary, middle and high school, do schoolwork each year. Coursework raises GPA, while an underworked school year can lower it when that year ends. Your starting GPA carries into the calculation; grades are not a fixed count of activities. School sports commitments can also affect schoolwork.

Take the final school exam when your elementary, middle or high school offers it. For these exams, final GPA combines 30% coursework and 70% exam performance, with any applicable school bonus. Transfers and private schools have their own requirements and costs, which you can review before agreeing.

Your school screen shows conduct warnings and when a suspension ends. Skipping school, cheating or mistreating staff or classmates can bring a warning, detention, suspension or expulsion. Serious incidents can skip steps. A school year without further trouble can improve your standing.

Suspension keeps you enrolled but blocks school activities, school interactions and transfers for a year. It delays graduation, and New Year can continue even if a final exam would normally be due. If expelled, read the reason and return to Education. A different school or Night School may be available depending on your age. College and community college require a school diploma or equivalent.

For higher education, choose a program that fits the career you want, check admission and tuition, and earn the required credits. These programs use earned credits rather than the final school exam. Choose Graduate Now when eligible. Academic scholarships depend on grades; an athletic scholarship depends on a qualifying college team offer and continued eligibility.

A four year college degree normally requires 120 credits, with a limit of 36 credits per character year. Once the yearly load is full, more classes do not add credits until New Year. The 36 credit limit applies only to the four year college program. Older saves may start applying the yearly limit after their next New Year. Review tuition and any notices before advancing.

In higher education, an activity can change both credits and GPA. Check both figures in the result. Performance and repeated activities affect the credits earned. Skipped work can earn participation credits, but its grade is capped at C or your current average if that is lower. Skipping cannot lift a weak GPA.

Look for Night School in the adult education options. Pay the first year when enrolling and the second when requested. Complete the required activities across both years before the final exam. Waiting for two years or paying tuition alone does not unlock it.

Graduate Entry Prep can appear when you have a completed bachelor's degree but your admissions GPA is too low for Grad School. It costs money and energy. Complete the preparation, then check the admission requirements again.

If you have earned 30 credits in the current four-year college year and an activity would otherwise award 12, the annual cap allows only 6 more. Advance with New Year before expecting a fresh 36-credit allowance.

For GPA, an entry average of 3.0 carries 30 graded credits. If your next awarded 10 credits have a 4.0 grade, the new average is (3.0 × 30 + 4.0 × 10) ÷ 40 = 3.25. The 30 entry credits are GPA weight, not degree progress.

The final exam requires two completed years, Year 2 tuition paid and the required activities completed. With the normal four-activity yearly allowance, that means eight activities across the course. Paying tuition or waiting alone is not enough.

Open Career to browse paths and companies. Standard job tracks include food service, retail, technology, business, education, medicine and law. If you need a bank account, open one through Assets. Read all displayed requirements, including age, qualifications, experience and any health, travel or background checks.

If your character is wanted, a valid Fake ID from the Black Market lets them apply for jobs as long as they meet the other requirements, including the bank account check. Their annual pay goes to the wallet while the manhunt freezes their accounts.

When an ordinary employer sees a criminal record, the interview includes a question about it and the score loses 10 points. A valid Fake ID hides the record from that check. For ordinary roles, a company you already work for skips the repeat check. Medicine, law and education still reject applicants with a conviction that has not been sealed or overturned, even with a valid Fake ID.

1. Choose a role and company your character can apply to.
2. Complete the interview and review the offer, including pay and benefits.
3. Accept a suitable offer, then do your work activities to maintain performance.
4. Review promotion requirements and notices as your experience grows.

Poor performance can lead to warnings and dismissal. Salaries and offers depend on the role and company, so use the amount shown in your game. You can hold up to two active standard jobs, subject to career restrictions. If both slots are full, leave a job before accepting another offer. Some full time paths cannot be combined; the career lock explains which commitment you need to leave first. At New Year, illness and homelessness deductions stop at 55 performance points. Missed work and poor results can take the score lower.

Apps holds your applications and offers. Applying does not start employment; you still need to complete the interview and accept an offer. After signing, open Current and select the activities for the job you want to work on. A work minigame can improve the activity result. If you skip it, read the result before assuming you earned the same performance bonus.

Promotion reviews check the next role's requirements and the manager's decision. Work on the missing qualification or skill instead of assuming time served guarantees a promotion. From age 65, New Year can process retirement depending on age and health. Retirement is not guaranteed the first time New Year takes your character to age 65. Read the retirement notice and review your pension under Career, then Pension.

Work fatigue reduces the session calculation, while the final score change also depends on the job's level and any applicable mentor perk. A challenge score is not the number of performance points added. Promotion still checks the next role's requirements and the manager's decision.

Salary, interview requirements and available benefits depend on the actual role and company. Use the offer shown to your character instead of expecting one income for a whole career.

Choose Content Creator from Career. You can start from age 13. At ages 13 to 15, complete the chores shown before requesting parental approval; if permission is refused, wait until your next age to try again. Choose a niche such as Gaming, IRL/Vlog, Creative or React/Commentary and name your channel. You need a phone, tablet, laptop or PC. A phone must be working, charged and have an active plan whenever it requires one. Homeless characters need a portable device. You cannot start or create content while incarcerated.

Join a suitable platform, check what equipment and energy your chosen content needs, then stream or record an upload. Streamz, ViewTube and ShortForm have different formats and monetization rules. Review each platform's progress requirements rather than assuming that followers alone unlock earnings.

Upgrade the equipment you use, try different content and see how your audience responds. Sponsor offers have requirements and obligations; read those before accepting. Your earnings depend on your content and sponsor deals.

Streamz is for live streams. ViewTube and ShortForm accept recorded content in their supported formats. Join a platform before trying to use it, then choose the content type and device setup. If Start Streaming or Record & Upload Video is disabled, read the message below that button. Losing device access or becoming homeless without a portable device can interrupt an existing channel too.

Read the required work on each sponsor contract. A deal that requires a stream or upload checks whether you delivered that work during the character year. Signing the deal does not complete it. Missing the requirement can mean no payment and an ended contract at New Year. Check your content library and channel results before accepting more commitments.

A contract requiring streams needs at least one live stream in that year. A content requirement needs at least one upload. Requirements that accept either are satisfied by a stream or an upload. Read the contract because the format matters.

A deal with no qualifying work pays nothing and ends at the yearly check. The stated contract payment is not guaranteed just because you accepted the offer.

Tier progress reads the statistics of the joined platform. Streamz uses its live-stream figures, while ViewTube uses subscribers and watch hours. Device access, platform membership and energy remain separate requirements for making the next piece of content.

Martial arts classes and professional MMA are different paths. For classes from age 4, open Home, then Extra and Martial Arts. If you moved it to the bottom bar, use Martial instead. Follow any parental permission requirements and check the class fee and energy cost. Complete a pending rank test before taking another class. Boxing, Wrestling, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Karate, Taekwondo, Judo and Muay Thai have their own training paths.

For professional MMA, open Career, Professional Sports, then Martial Arts. You must be at least 18 and resign from current jobs before applying. Another exclusive career, travel or medical restrictions, or application timing can block entry. Choose a gym, complete its application challenge, then review any contract offer before signing. Train and spar to prepare, read fight offers, and check your health and energy before competing. Read the fight instructions and choose your moves.

Fighting can cause injuries. Treat them and read any recovery restrictions before taking more work. A past win or a high general Fitness level does not replace the requirements shown for your next fight, division or contract.

Each discipline keeps its own rank progress. Build that progress in classes and take the rank test when it becomes available. A failed test can reduce progress toward the next rank. Classes normally charge a fee; an active professional gym contract covers the class fee. You still need the energy and any parental permission required.

Open Fight Offers & Schedule and use Pending, Completed or Declined to inspect your bookings. Read the opponent and scouting information before accepting. An accepted fight still needs Start Fight when you are eligible and medically cleared. Forfeit Fight adds a professional loss, so it is not a harmless way to remove a booking. Look for New Contract can also be unavailable after a contract change in the same age.

Class progress belongs to the selected discipline. Completing its rank test advances that discipline's belt or level. Professional MMA has a separate contract, opponents and win/loss record.

Before accepting a fight, inspect the opponent and medical status. Forfeit Fight records a professional loss. Training does not make a previously accepted fight disappear.

The game plan’s +8% label belongs to a specialist’s own moves. For example, choosing Boxing applies the 1.08 multiplier to Boxing actions such as Jab, Hook and Uppercut. If the same qualifying hit would otherwise calculate 100 damage, that multiplier makes it 108 before later damage scaling or defense. It does not add eight percentage points to your chance of winning.

Hybrid keeps a wider move list but uses the separate −5% trade-off on trained moves. Gym preparation has its own +6%, neutral or −6% matchup effect. Read these labels separately instead of adding every displayed percentage into one guaranteed bonus.

The professional model also compares Skill, Stamina, Defense, Durability and Aggression. Their weights are 40%, 20%, 20%, 10% and 10%. The player’s professional career values are compared with the underlying fighting skill, Fitness, Discipline and Resilience values used by that profile. Training focus and injury or preparation modifiers are then applied. These adjusted profile values are not five extra skills you buy directly, and their modifier-adjusted values do not have a promised universal 100 cap.

Base Combat Power = 0.30 × Fitness + 0.15 × Discipline + 0.15 × Resilience + 0.15 × Fighting. These are point coefficients, not shares of a total that must add to 100%. With all four values at 100, the base is 75. No Looks or Charisma term is missing.

Add the martial arts bonus, which is capped at 15 points. Then multiply by the age and body-type modifiers, round the result and cap the displayed Combat Power at 120. Professional fight readiness applies its own experience, injury and preparation adjustments, so the displayed value is not a win probability.

Football, called soccer in some regions, is open to new players. While at school, look for the team in the School screen. Read the tryout and permission requirements, then train, check your place in the squad, and play or simulate the fixtures offered.

At school, use the team's Training, Fixtures, Squad, Scouts and Offers information as it becomes available. Ability and form help your place in the side. Read academy, college and professional offers carefully: the route depends on age, region, eligibility and your actual record. In a professional football career without a club, use Offers, Trials, Training and Agent. After signing, use Team for training, drills, squad, offers and sponsors; Dashboard, then Matches, for games; Agent for your agent's inbox and contract; and League for the competition. Club contracts are under Team, then Offers, then Professional Offers. Academy invitations have their own Academy Offers category.

Review contract perks before signing, or open Agent, then Contract, to read your signed deal. If it includes a housing allowance, the club pays it with your wage. It counts as taxable pay, and some of the allowance can fall into a higher tax bracket. If your wage covers only part of the year, the same fraction applies to the allowance. A qualifying deal can also provide a club flat while it runs if you have nowhere to live.

Basketball and Track and Field currently show Coming soon for newcomers. Existing active careers in those sports remain playable. If you already have one, follow its training, fixtures or meets, squad, offers and season information.

In professional football, open Dashboard, then Matches. Use All, League, Cups or International to browse fixtures. Under League, switch between Season and Play-offs. Dashboard also has Country when available, with Overview, Squad, Tournament and History. Read each national team call-up before accepting or declining. The invitation lets you choose Auto-accept future call-ups; change this later under Country using Auto-accept call-ups. Changes affect future invitations only. When a tournament is available, its Group, Knockouts, Your road and Leaders tabs show the competition and your country's progress.

Choose Play match when offered. On Match day, open Fixture when it appears and tap either club to see its starting lineup and player ratings. Controls shows the buttons or keys for your device. The camera follows your footballer during normal play and can zoom out to keep the ball in view. It follows the ball on a shot toward goal. While you are on the pitch, a countdown below the scoreboard shows what comes next in the final ten seconds of each period. In knockout matches, it can announce extra time, the break in extra time or penalties.

Read the ring around the opposing ball carrier. White means a tap steps you in. Red means you are in tackling range. Green marks a clear chance to take the ball. Tap Tackle for a standing challenge or hold it to slide. Barge appears when you are close enough, and Strength helps. When you take a free kick, use Shoot or Pass to aim from the spot. If you wait, the game takes the kick for you.

Watch the landing marker on aerial balls. Tap Head for a quick header, or hold to slow play and aim, then release. Near your own goal the button can read Clear. In a duel with your marker in front of goal, Heading makes up 70% of your aerial score and Strength makes up 30%. When a teammate has the ball, tap Call to ask for it. A dashed green ring marks the requested pass. Solid green means the pass was played to you. Red means the call was refused or went unanswered.

Move toward a loose ball or a rolling pass to meet it with your foot. First Touch helps with faster balls, which can still bounce away. A controlled ball at chest height drops toward your feet. Keepers can come out for loose balls in the box. When the computer chooses a pass, it gives a slight preference to onside teammates near either touchline. After an injury, the match can show whether the referee called a foul. If an injured player is replaced, play waits at the stoppage for the replacement to come on.

If a match was interrupted, look for Match paused. Choose Resume to continue from the saved point, or Sim rest to finish it automatically. Later leaves a reminder with View match so you can return. If no match progress was saved, the buttons say Play match and Sim match instead. Finish the unfinished match before playing another fixture or starting New Year.

Solo training lets you practise without joining a team. Choose a session and read its cost before starting. The fee and energy are spent when the session starts. Leaving the drill does not undo that cost. Follow any request for parental permission.

Season results now use Overview, Stats, Squad and Rewards tabs. Only tabs with information are shown. Overview explains the finish, Stats shows performance, Squad reports changes and Rewards lists honours or payments. A professional season uses See what happens next to continue. Cup and country results can appear first with Continue. At school, answer any coach's question beneath the tabs before moving on.

In Dashboard, then Matches, a filter can hide the next scheduled game. Use Go to next match when shown to return to the competition that is next.

Pace is the Pace skill. Shooting averages Finishing and Composure. Passing averages Passing and Vision. Dribbling averages Dribbling and First touch. Defending averages Tackling, Positioning and Heading. Physical averages Strength and Stamina. These headline averages are rounded.

A position's overall rating uses all relevant football skills with more weight on its key skills. Training only a headline average can leave a weak skill that matters in an actual match.

Overview, Stats, Squad and Rewards are the current results tabs. A result shows only tabs with information. Finish any coach question or continuation step after reading the figures; opening a tab does not settle the next stage of the season.

Basketball and track and field remain unavailable to regular new players in this version. Existing active careers saved from earlier access can continue.

You can join a school tennis team when eligible. For tennis practice from age 6, open Home, Extra, then Tennis, or use the Tennis bottom shortcut if you enabled it. The dedicated club and professional route is under Career, Professional Sports, then Tennis. These routes have different progress screens; read the permission and entry requirements for the one you choose.

Choose a club you can afford, train and compete in amateur events. Turning professional requires age 14 or older, Tennis level 35 and five wins in amateur events. The Turn Professional screen tracks these requirements. Professional tennis is a full time commitment: check whether another job or career blocks entry, and read the resignation warning before confirming. Turning professional ends any current jobs and opens the tour calendar.

Enter tournaments you qualify for. If your ranking misses the cut, check whether a Qualify option is offered; winning that draw can secure entry. Professionals aged 14 to 17 have limits on tour events each season. Read the surface, draw and travel costs, play your matches and claim the result. Ranking points can expire, so review the points you need to defend. Treat injuries and manage condition between events.

Tennis earnings include tournament prize money and payments from sponsor contracts you accept. Ranking influences sponsor offers; it does not give every player a separate automatic income. Eligible players on the wheelchair circuit may also receive programme funding. Club membership renews annually and can lapse if its payment fails.

An active event stays on the tennis dashboard until you finish or withdraw. Use See Result when the run is complete. A title win may show a celebration before Continue settles the event. Ranking points and the final reward are not awarded simply because you entered the last round. If the ranking looks unchanged, finish the result screens before entering another event.

Court Preference shows your strengths and weaknesses on hard, clay and grass. Check the surface before choosing an event. Rest & Recover has a limited number of uses each season, and Condition Full means no recovery is needed. Read an injury's treatment details; treatment can shorten recovery without removing every injury immediately. If an event is locked by ranking, use Qualify only when that option is offered.

A title is not a permanent block of ranking points. The ledger keeps the result through the next season, giving you a chance to defend it. Replaying the event replaces its old points. Finish See Result and any Continue step so the new result is actually settled.

If your condition is 75, one available Rest & Recover use restores 25, not 40, because the cap is 100. The use is still spent.

In the match simulation, condition scales the effective skill by 0.7 + 0.3 × condition ÷ 100. Full condition uses 100% of that skill, condition 50 uses 85%, and condition 0 uses 70%. Those percentages describe the skill used by the simulation, not the chance of winning. The opponent’s skill and condition still matter.

Your trained Tennis level remains the same when condition falls. Recover condition or choose a lighter calendar rather than treating low freshness as lost XP. Energy recovery and tournament condition recovery are separate mechanics.

Find the business path in Career. You must be at least 18, have a Business Bank Account and leave any current job before opening a business. Another exclusive career can also block entry. Compare business types, starting capital and requirements. Put your startup contribution in the Business Bank Account. Review any startup loans offered before confirming; that account must cover the final startup charge.

After opening, check the business's own dashboard. Hire suitable staff, assign work, maintain equipment and arrange products, services or stock where your business needs them. Marketing, suppliers, competitors and customer satisfaction all matter to different types of business.

Read the annual accounts before expanding. Revenue is not profit: wages, supplies, borrowing and other costs can use the money coming in. Keep personal funds and business funds in mind when choosing how to pay. Loans and expansion create obligations, and a business can fail.

If the shop cannot open, read its missing requirements before buying more stock. Check the product or service list, equipment condition and staffing of required areas for that business type. Hiring someone without assigning a required role may leave the shop blocked. A broken required item can also stop trading. Use the business's own stock, equipment and staffing controls to address the specific problem.

In Finance, Capital lets you select personal funds and transfer money into the Business Account. Withdraw is different: it takes available business profit, with the withdrawal tax shown before settlement. The whole bank balance is not necessarily profit you can take home. Money left as working capital still pays the business's costs. Review the available amount and the business account balance before confirming.

Starting at company level 1 with no progress, 1,250 awarded company XP is enough to reach level 3: 500 for the first level and 750 for the second. This example uses XP already awarded after any applicable multiplier.

Expansion copies the flagship's equipment into the new stores. Check the actual plan for setup costs and added yearly running costs before confirming. Adding locations does not make their rent or staffing costs disappear.

Your wallet and bank accounts are separate balances. Open Banking through Assets to compare account requirements, fees, interest and borrowing terms. You can apply for your own account from age 16; some parent-provided accounts can exist earlier. Make sure money is in the payment source an action accepts before buying or paying a bill. During a manhunt, your bank accounts are frozen and earn no interest. Check Assets, then Banking, for the freeze notice.

For a personal loan, you need an active personal account at the lender bank; a business account does not count. Review loans and yearly obligations before New Year. Borrowing is not free income: repayments and interest affect later years. Credit history and account eligibility matter, and missing an obligation can have consequences. Read the explanation in your game if a payment or transfer is blocked.

In Accounts, check which accounts receive income and pay bills. Earnings and recurring charges can use different accounts. Deposit, Withdraw and Transfer move money between specific sources; money elsewhere is not automatically in the account you selected. Taking money from savings can reduce the amount earning interest that year.

Use Debts to read repayment or early payoff options. Subscriptions lists your character's plans. Cancelling one stops the next yearly charge and does not refund the year already paid. These plans are separate from ChoiceFlow Plus membership.

Career, then Pension, has contribution and fund controls. Make Extra Contribution requires enrollment or an existing pension balance, money deposited in an active personal account and space within the yearly contribution limit. Read withdrawal penalties and payout options before taking money out. Automatic offers to join an employer pension pause during a manhunt.

A lender also checks the actual loan product, your account, income and existing obligations. The 43% figure is a refusal ceiling for the projected ratio, not permission to borrow any amount below it.

Pension contribution limits and retirement events are different rules. Age 65 does not promise that an ordinary retirement event will occur on the first New Year that reaches that age. Review the pension's actual payout and withdrawal choices.

Investing opens from age 18 and requires an eligible trading device, such as a phone or computer. Investment purchases need an active bank account with enough money deposited for the purchase; cash in your wallet cannot pay. Compare the available stocks, crypto and property investments, then read the amount, price, energy cost and risk before confirming a purchase.

Investment prices change in the game's simulated market as years pass. They do not track real market prices. Property investments belong to your investment portfolio; your character cannot move into them. Keep enough accessible money for living costs and commitments instead of assuming you can sell later at a profit. Market changes can reduce the value of a holding.

In Portfolio, use Buy with this account to select the personal account for a purchase. Business accounts are not listed there. The amount you enter is money to invest; the game calculates the units bought at its current price. Check the minimum and energy cost if a purchase fails.

Expand a holding to see its separate purchases, values and history. Several buys can have different purchase prices. Check the lot and quantity before selling, then read the proceeds and any tax. Activity helps you review changes without confusing cash income with a change in market price.

Day Trade opens a separate trading session with a funded personal account. Starting spends energy. Closing an active session early still settles its result after confirmation. Profits go to your income account; losses charge the account used for that session.

A long position of 10 shares bought at 100 and closed at 110 makes 100 before settlement deductions. Closing those same shares at 90 loses 100. A short position reverses that price difference.

After the timer ends, choose Collect Profits or Accept Losses to settle the result. Confirming an early close also settles it. Profits go to your income account, while losses charge the account selected for the session.

Open Shopping or Shop, then Real Estate, to review rentals and homes. Compare the initial payment with ongoing rent, maintenance and other costs. A home you can buy today may still be expensive to keep next year.

Check the property and household requirements before moving. Rentals have pet limits, so review housing before adopting another pet. Address rent warnings and housing problems when they appear; ignoring them can lead to losing your home.

Taking a new rental or buying a home changes where you live and ends your previous rental. It also stops rent to parents. Check what you are giving up before confirming; buying a second property does not keep an old rental running.

Being wanted blocks a rental application. A past conviction is different: a close eligible friend or family member can act as guarantor, otherwise the landlord may charge higher rent. Pet limits and recent pet-policy problems can also affect the application. A paid Black Market Safe House can give you somewhere to live while wanted.

Review the account used for bills, not only your wallet. Rent, item upkeep, family obligations and subscriptions are separate charges. Living with parents can also become a paid arrangement. Catch up on arrears when warned; repeated unpaid rent can end in eviction.

The rent, upkeep and price shown for a property can differ from a basic catalogue amount. The tables use game-money amounts; use the currency and final charge displayed in your life. A rental has its own pet limit and wear multiplier, so do not assume every landlord allows two pets.

• For pet wear, a medium dog counts as 1 weighted pet, a cat as 0.9, a rabbit as 0.6, a bird as 0.4, a hamster as 0.3 and a fish as 0.2. Large dogs use a 1.2 size multiplier and giant dogs 1.35.
• Prison pauses electronics and vehicle upkeep, but housing tax and utilities continue.

Open a person's profile to see the interactions available to your character. Conversation, time together and considerate choices can build trust, affection and respect; hurtful choices can create resentment. People's relationship status and what has already happened affect their responses.

In Bonds, the raised hand on a contact’s card opens a favour when one is available. Check what it costs before helping. Completing a favour can improve the bond. If you cannot do it, the offer stays open and the game shows why.

Romance starts at age 16. Characters under 18 can date only other characters under 18. You must have met the person, satisfy the relationship requirements and have their consent. Family relationships block romance. Existing partners can change the available choices and create affair consequences. For someone far away, check whether the action needs a working communication device or an in-person visit.

From age 16, the Dating App action on a supported device lets you browse profiles. Connecting introduces that person and opens Relationships, Romance. An introduction is not a completed relationship milestone. Open their card and choose Romance to see the next available step.

Within Romance, use Go on Date and Love Tasks. Check the date’s price and payment source. Relationship stages need their own progress and tasks, so a high affection score alone does not complete the next stage.

Check the relationship tabs and filters, including hidden people, before assuming a contact has vanished. Open the person’s card to read any restriction. Someone in another city may need a call or visit rather than an ordinary local interaction. A usable communication device and the offered travel arrangements can matter.

The game first asks whether the person accepts. It then checks and charges the selected payment source, then resolves the date. A successful invitation therefore does not guarantee a wonderful date. Complete any active Love Task’s actual objectives, including the required type of date and successful result where specified.

To propose, both people must be at least 18, free to marry and in a serious relationship. Complete the required Love Tasks. A proposal you make needs an engagement ring; an NPC proposing brings their own. You must be engaged before marrying. Review surname and prenup choices before confirming. Marriage can change family and financial responsibilities. Divorce can involve assets, pensions, support and custody, so read the terms shown for your family.

Pregnancy depends on fertility and compatible reproductive roles. The person carrying the baby must be aged 16 to 45. Marriage is not required. Read the choices about naming, involvement and care when offered. After separation, follow the custody arrangement, visitation and child support notices. Children and their other parent have their own circumstances, including travel when they live far away. An announced pregnancy can appear on the person’s Bonds card even when the relationship is below the usual friendship threshold.

From Home, open Extra, Travel and the Adoption Centre. To apply, you must be at least 21, have a home and at least 5,000 in available funds, and be neither imprisoned nor wanted. Single applicants can apply. Income and convictions affect matching rather than automatically disqualifying you. Complete the interview and wait for a match; placement costs 2,000 per child. The game displays these amounts in your character's currency.

Open Invest in your child and use Summary, Plan and Skills to understand their development. While they are school-aged, compare school tracks, tuition tiers and activities in Plan. Tuition and enrolled activities create annual charges, so a displayed yearly benefit also means a continuing commitment.

At adulthood, schooling plans stop being available. You can still inspect their skills and university status, including any reconsideration option the game offers.

If a minor child lives with the other parent, direct interactions can stay locked until a visit is arranged. Open that co-parent’s children panel. Where required, request Visitation Rights first; then select eligible children and Request Visit. Read travel charges for children living elsewhere. A request can be refused, and the interface shows when another request must wait.

Raising costs, school tuition, activity fees, child support and visitation travel are different obligations. School track and tier, chosen activities, custody/residence and family finances can change what is due. Review the child and co-parent screens rather than multiplying one quoted fee by every year.

Find street crime under Activities, then Crime. Each crime has its own age, equipment and energy requirements. Read the target, possible reward and risks before acting. Crime can bring police attention, loss, injuries, legal proceedings and prison; an advertised reward is not a guaranteed payout.

When a contact offers Fight, the challenge shows both fighters’ combat power and any weapon selected. Under Bring a weapon, choose Fight unarmed or an eligible item you own, such as a Baseball Bat, Knuckleduster or Combat Knife. Review the matchup before choosing Start Fight.

Street crews, criminal organization careers and territory management are unavailable to regular players. Prison gangs have their own membership and rank. You can join one while serving a sentence.

Open Overview to check your estimated release age, time served, behavior and parole readiness. Open Sentence and convictions to see Still to serve and Completed, then expand a conviction for its recorded details. Use File Appeal under Lawyer appeal, or See Doctor under Prison medical for free treatment.

If your character chose Other and you see Prison intake, choose Female at birth or Male at birth. The game saves the choice for prison placement and fills the Inmates list for your wing.

In the Inmates tab, search by name or filter by gang or loyalty where available. Open an inmate’s card to see which interactions are available.

In Overview, choose Organize Prison Riot after serving at least a year and when you are out of solitary. You can attempt it once per character year.

You can attempt the riot on your own. If inmates from your prison gang are available, Send all crew lets them draw guards while you head for the orange door. Up to four gang members can help.

Getting caught during the riot adds 10 to 25 years and a year in solitary, and resets your behavior rating to zero. Escaping starts a manhunt that goes cold after 20 to 40 years if you stay free.

From Extra, open Criminal Record to review police heat, arrests and past convictions. Look for Black Market in Extra once your character has discovered it. Access normally opens after 15 recorded crimes, or you can pay a fixer 8,000 from your wallet using a device with internet access. Read the cash price and risks before buying. Item purchases can trigger an undercover sting, and an open court case can block them. Confirm Black Market services before paying from your wallet. Black Market access is separate from criminal organization careers.

Under Safety, a Safe House costs 25,000 a year. You move in if you have nowhere to live or are staying at your parents’ watched home during a manhunt. Rent renews from your wallet at New Year. Stop renting keeps the rest of the paid year and cancels renewal. Stay on cancels that notice. The rental also ends if you cannot pay or the rent comes due in prison.

Under Identity, a Fake ID costs 20,000 and lasts five years. You can renew it in its last year. Under Tools, a Disguise Kit costs 5,000.

Tap the On the run banner to see the manhunt countdown. Police watch people you knew before escaping. Chat, Financial and Ask to Move Back In can expose you, and staying at your parents’ watched home carries a risk each New Year while the manhunt continues. The capture chance for a watched contact is 30% by default. A paid Safe House lowers it to 10%, and a valid Fake ID halves either chance. Where offered, a Disguise Kit skips one contact check.

Use Turn in on the On the run banner to surrender. The confirmation shows the 5 to 10 year range for the escape charge and any time you still owe. The return card shows the result and your expected release age.

For crimes that offer targets, compare the choices before committing. The target you pick determines the possible loot and police consequences. Being caught opens the investigation and legal process; a failed attempt can leave consequences without giving you the advertised reward.

In Activities, switch between Personal and Gang. Prison Workshop can earn money, Education Classes build skills, and Yard Time and Social Time have their own costs and results. The result shows the cash, behavior, skill XP and sentence changes that apply. When you gain skill XP, check for a level change or XP remaining to the next level.

Activities use limited yearly slots as well as energy. Rest in Your Cell has a separate yearly allowance and uses no activity slot. Power Nap also appears on the prison screen when you have naps available. Solitary confinement blocks normal prison activities.

Choose Fight on an inmate’s card when offered. Adults in adult prison can select a Shiv or Yard Stone they own, or fight unarmed. If you win and your opponent survives, you can let them go with a warning. Between adults in adult prison, you can also continue the beating or choose to injure them severely, risking lasting harm or death.

In the prison Activities tab, open Gang and choose Join a Gang. In juvenile detention, choose Smuggle Contraband as your initiation, then complete Initiation: Smuggle Contraband in Activities. The separate solo smuggling activity does not count.

To found a gang, use Make Loyal on inmate cards once your relationship reaches Friends (41 or higher). Check the cost and odds before paying from your wallet. You lose the payment if they refuse. With at least three loyal followers and no current gang or initiation, choose Start Your Own Gang to become its leader. Leaders can use Recruit to Crew on loyal inmates when the gang has room.

In Gangs, open Your Gang to see your rank and gang XP. New recruits start as Members. Completing initiation grants 3,500 to 3,900 base gang XP before modifiers. Enforcer requires 10,000 XP and Lieutenant requires 18,000 XP. A lieutenant with at least 27,000 XP can choose Challenge Gang Leader when available. You need a living leader on your wing and must be out of solitary. Review the matchup and choose available pledged backers. The leader can have backers too, and either side can be hurt before the fight starts. Adults in adult prison can borrow a shiv from the gang or bring an eligible weapon they own.

Losing the leadership fight can bring demotion, a beating, expulsion or death. If the old leader survives your victory, you can kick them out. Between adults in adult prison you can also choose to scar or kill them. Violence can bring an investigation or added time. A conviction for killing the old leader can revoke any pending inheritance from them.

In Your Gang, cash gifts can build your personal bond with a gang member. Each gift is at least 100, with a limit of 10,000 per inmate per character year. Once you are friends, you can ask for a personal pledge without asking the inmate to leave the gang.

Leaders can use Order on a member to set, change or cancel a standing job. Each eligible inmate tries one order per character year. If they already tried this year, a changed order starts next year. Gang Year In Review shows each job’s result and any changes to earnings, reputation, heat or loyalty.

Nonleaders in established gangs can lose their place if they complete fewer than two counted gang activities, such as workouts or meetings, in a year. A year already spent in solitary is excused. Overview shows the remaining solitary term. For leaders, doing fewer than three counted gang activities in a year can weaken their gang’s reputation, control and loyalty. Nonleaders can use Leave Prison Gang from Your Gang. Leaving ends gang protection and risks retaliation.

If you turn 18 while still serving a juvenile sentence, you transfer to adult prison to serve the remaining time. If your gang operates there, the group in the adult facility recognizes your rank. If you lead a gang, loyal members may rejoin you as they turn 18 if they are still serving.

A normal release ends your prison gang membership. If you return to custody while still wanted after an escape, an established prison gang can restore your gang XP and rank. Former leaders of those gangs return as Lieutenant. If you escaped as leader of a gang you founded, you can lead it again if at least one member is still on the wing.

The first three credited education reductions of a sentence each use 5% of the current total sentence. Later credited reductions use 2.5%, 1.25% and then halve again. Reduction is rounded to a tenth of a year and cannot remove more time than remains. This is separate from the one credited class per year.

To qualify for a parole hearing, serve at least 40% of your adjusted sentence, rounded up to a whole year. Finish two consecutive years with a behavior rating of 80 or more. If your adjusted sentence is 12 years, you must serve at least five. Once eligible and out of the cooldown, you have a 20% chance of a hearing at New Year while you are still serving.

The hearing has five questions. Your record determines whether you need three, four or five correct answers. If the Board decision grants parole, choose Start Your New Life to leave prison and continue with the same character. A denial starts a cooldown of four years.

Read symptoms, diagnoses and injury notices. Visit a doctor or other care option when needed, review the consultation and treatment cost, and follow any treatment or recovery plan. A visit does not guarantee that every condition will disappear.

Energy pays for many actions, so keep some for important commitments. New Year restores it to your current capacity, but lasting impairments can lower that capacity and annual medical effects can reduce the energy left afterward. Items that restore energy cannot raise it above your current capacity. Read their use limits and warnings: repeated use can cost health, and some energy drinks in the game can cause a heart attack. Illness, injury and exhaustion can affect work or training. Sports condition is separate from energy.

Characters can die through age, illness, injury and other events. Read serious warnings and care choices when they appear. Death ends that character's playable life; available continuation and legacy choices depend on the family left behind.

Body at Birth lets you choose body differences when creating a character. During play, open Stats, then Health, to read how your character's body and medical conditions affect daily life. Where equipment is available, compare its effects, free or paid options and any payment plan before choosing it. Fitted equipment can be taken off or put back on from the same health screen. Wearing different equipment can change which activities your character can manage.

Choose the conditions to address, choose their treatments, then open Review plan. Check the total, coverage, payment source and any renewal choices before Start care. Chronic care manages a condition rather than promising a cure. Read the resulting care status before buying another course.

Lifestyle & Habits shows diet, exercise habits and addictions. Open Current Impact for the explanation. Healthy meals, junk food and sugar affect diet over time. Workouts do not cancel an unhealthy diet. An active nutrition plan supports diet progress, but does not automatically make every diet healthy.

When Home or the prison screen offers Power Nap, check the remaining allowance. Yearly naps return at New Year; earned spare naps are a separate stock. Waiting in real time does not refill the yearly allowance. Avoid wasting a limited recovery option when your usable energy is already close to full.

Active Lifestyle needs 4 yearly exercise credits and is lost if the credit total drops below 4. Repeating workouts in one year does not substitute for keeping the habit across years. Exercise does not cancel an Unhealthy Diet result.

• Nicotine falls by 20 per year normally. A year-end level of at least 50 costs 3 Health and 50 Charisma XP. Leaving the Smoker state can bring withdrawal with 20 Stress and 10 Happiness lost.
• Alcohol normally falls by 15 per year. At level 60 to 79 it costs 2 Health, 50 Intelligence XP and 50 Charisma XP at year end. At 80 or more it costs 4 Health, 100 Intelligence XP and 100 Charisma XP. These XP losses stop at zero; they are not fixed losses of whole skill levels. Leaving the Drinker state can bring 25 Stress and 15 Happiness lost.
• These annual level checks happen after natural decay. Prison changes substance decay. The six shared stimulant units are not an exemption from these separate habit effects.

Review the selected condition, provider, coverage and payment before Start care. Chronic conditions use management and renewal rather than an instant cure. Eligible acute courses lasting 12 months or less resolve their treatment roll when purchased. A failed eligible session can be tried again with another paid session and a new roll; longer courses and other care types have their own timing. A single fixed cost or success percentage would be misleading across all conditions and countries.

Open Home, Extra, then Pets for the Pet Store and Animal Shelter. Buying or adopting a pet is unavailable at ages 0 to 5. Ages 6 to 17 need parental approval; adults do not. Check housing, upfront costs and ongoing care before confirming. Open a pet's profile to care for it and review its health. Dog and cat training requires a player aged at least 15 and a pet aged at least one. Use vet care when your pet needs it.

Species, breed, age, housing and progression affect available actions. Dog Agility, Obedience and Rally competitions are open when their season and entry checks are met. Cats can enter Championship, Premiership, Household Pet and Agility when eligible. Premium pet packs, restricted breeds and breeding remain unavailable to regular players. Dog Showing and Working Trials, plus premium title tiers for dogs and cats, remain locked.

Dogs can be fed, walked, groomed and played with. Cats and small animals have their own care actions. Watch happiness, health, bond and fullness. On a dog’s Care screen, the Hunger score shows how full the dog is. A higher number means the dog is better fed. Food choices and the amount used affect the charge.

Pay for chosen food and vet services, and review vaccination or condition-care coverage before buying another plan. Insurance premiums recur and cover can lapse when payment fails. Pets can add housing wear costs.

If a vet action says your pet has already been checked or is still covered, check the current care plan before buying it again. New Year ages pets and changes their needs. Sustained neglect can damage health and bond; unhappy dogs can run away.

The following are base completion gains. Stats stop at their cap, and an activity event can alter the final result. Feeding charges for the number and quality of food items used in its game; do not treat a tier price as unlimited food.

• Basic dog food costs 5 per item and gives 3 Happiness, 2 Health and 20 Fullness. Standard costs 15 and gives 8, 5 and 40. Premium costs 30 and gives 15, 10 and 60.
• A walk gives 10 Happiness and 8 Health, plus 5 Bond multiplied by the dog’s bond-gain personality modifier.
• Play gives 12 Happiness multiplied by its play modifier, 8 Bond multiplied by its bond-gain modifier, and 2 Health.
• Fullness below 30 adds 8 Happiness decay and 5 Health decay to the dog’s annual calculation. Senior dogs and medical conditions can worsen the result.
• Cat play starts from 18 Happiness indoors or 12 outdoors before the personality multiplier, plus 2 Health and a smaller personality-modified Bond gain. Grooming adds 30 Grooming for longhair cats or 15 for other cats.
• For cats, the indoor annual base is 18 Happiness and 5 Health lost; outdoors it is 10 Happiness and 12 Health. These are before care, personality, hunger, age and illness adjustments. An indoor cat without play gets an additional 8 Happiness decay.

Repeated sessions give 100%, 50%, 25% and then 10% of the normal XP before other multipliers. For dogs, that session counter is shared across disciplines for the same pet that year. For cats, it is separate for each discipline. A new character year resets the relevant count.

• Dog competitions require at least 30 Bond. Ringcraft and the chosen discipline must reach level 1 for Novice, 2 for Open or 3 for Excellent. A dog can enter each competition type once per season.
• Cat competitions need at least level 1 Showmanship. Championship is for intact pedigree cats; Premiership is for neutered pedigree cats. Active sickness can block competition, while an appropriately managed chronic condition is allowed.

Hamsters need a hamster habitat, fish a tank, birds a cage and rabbits a hutch before acquisition. Their care uses Happiness, Health, Bond, Fullness and Cleanliness, with actions specific to the species.

• Fish Clean Tank costs 5 and has base gains of 35 Cleanliness and 5 Health across the living fish in the tank. Each fish’s personality changes those gains, and stats stop at their cap.
• Companion play uses your minigame score. Before personality modifiers and stat caps, a C result gives 6 Happiness, 1 Health and 2 Bond; B gives 12, 3 and 4; A gives 18, 5 and 7; S gives 25, 8 and 10. B starts at 35% of the maximum score, A at 60% and S at 80%. This applies to hamster Play, fish Bubble Play, bird Socialize and rabbit Playtime. Feeding and cleaning remain separate care.
• Checkups, vaccinations and care plans have their own yearly and coverage restrictions. An active insurance policy is not a promise of a free unlimited visit, and missed annual premiums can end cover.

Browse the Shop for electronics, clothing, vehicles, property, health, education, lifestyle and pet supplies. Read an item's requirements, effect, cost and payment source before buying. Equipment only helps an activity when it satisfies that activity's requirements.

After buying something, check its relevant screen. Some items need another action, such as equipping clothing or consuming an item. Vehicles and property can create ongoing costs. Buying an item does not remove its age, licence, career or other requirements.

Some vehicles and jobs need a licence. From Home, open Extra, then Vehicle Licenses, available from age 16. Check the test's age and skill requirements, any prerequisite licence, and its fee and energy cost before starting. A failed test still uses its fee and energy; buying a vehicle does not grant its licence.

Open Assets to inspect what you own and use the actions shown on each item. Some items have activities, some can be sold, and rented items may offer an option to end the contract. Review the amount or warning before confirming. To change clothes, buy the Wardrobe Upgrade from Shop → Clothing → Wardrobe, then find it in Assets and choose Wardrobe. Choose from the clothing you own and equip the pieces you want to wear.

A purchase normally charges one selected source. The game does not combine small balances across your wallet and several accounts to meet one price. Outright purchases priced at 10,000 or more require eligible bank funds. Move money into the right accessible account before trying again.

An upgrade may replace eligible equipment and apply trade-in credit. Read the final charge and the items being replaced. Monthly services create subscriptions, while some possessions have separate annual upkeep that changes with the economy. Inspect Assets and Subscriptions before New Year; cancelling a service is different from selling a possession.

For item skill bonuses, open Assets → Equipped Bonus Items, then Choose bonus items. Use Equip on an owned item or select Auto-pick best. There are five slots, and item bonuses are capped at 15 per skill. Owning an item alone does not apply its skill bonus. Clothes use the wardrobe separately, consumables need their use action, and vehicles still require the applicable licence.

A training tool in the five item slots, clothes worn through the wardrobe and an electronic device used for a particular activity have different jobs. Equipping an item does not remove that action’s medical, age, qualification or licence checks.

• Licence fees above are the current fixed amounts in game money, not a real-world price list. Other item prices, upkeep and financing depend on the offer and current world conditions.
• For items with upkeep, compare the annual cost as well as the purchase price. Vehicles include economy and transport-cost changes; homes, electronics and lifestyle items use economy changes.

From Home, open Extra, then Travel for the local town map. Visit the park, restaurant, gym, clothing store, salon and other venues for activities, purchases and encounters. Read the requirements and costs at each place.

Gym workouts require a membership or another accepted gym access item; basic membership starts at age 16. Salon changes use cash from your wallet. Tattoos require age 18, and tattoo removal costs money. The bar and nightclub require age 21. The Adoption Centre has its own application requirements, covered in Marriage, children and custody.

The airport opens from age 18. Choose an available destination and trip length, review fares, and arrange companions and care for children staying home. International travel requires a passport valid for the whole trip. You cannot fly while imprisoned, wanted or already travelling. Check the booking total and payment source before confirming.

Some club contracts move your character to another city in the same country. Read the relocation terms before signing: moving can change housing and school, end jobs that need you there in person, and affect family members who move with you. A holiday is separate from moving home. There is no released option to move permanently to another country.

Tap a visible pin and read the activity costs before entering. Local activities can spend money and energy, change stats or introduce people. A gym membership does not pay for every other venue. The salon charges wallet cash; tattoo designs and removal have their own prices.

Choose the destination and length before inviting companions. Invitations can be refused, and the booking total depends on who is coming and whose tickets you pay. Confirm care for young children staying home. A passport can be refused because it expires too soon, even before its expiry age.

• Complete the airport trip and its decisions to receive the recap and settled effects.
• Souvenir purchases are optional extra spending.
• Check your remaining money before agreeing to extra costs during the trip.

The holiday quote combines the destination fare, home-region adjustment, daily stay cost, number of travellers being charged and the current economy. Childcare can add another charge. Compare the full quote and payer list before confirming. Keeping extra money for decisions and optional souvenirs is different from paying the booking.

The map does not give every character the same actions. A venue can admit children while one activity inside it has an older age requirement. Town access also respects imprisonment and medical travel restrictions. The gym needs supported gym access; a visible pin is not a free membership. Salon payment is taken from the wallet.

From Home, open Extra, then Gambling for the casino. Entry depends on your country: age 18 in the UK and 21 in the US. Available games are Blackjack, Roulette, Craps, Five Card Draw, Baccarat and Slots. Ordinary rounds use money and energy. Check the stake and whether you are paying from your wallet or an available bank account. Winnings are never guaranteed.

Use Tournaments to review the available competitions and Stats to see your record. Tournaments have entry fees, energy costs, eligibility rules and yearly entry limits. Read the requirements for the tier before joining. Repeated gambling can lead to addiction in the game, with later personal, relationship and work consequences.

Choose a game and stake, then read its instructions. The game charges the bet and energy before the round starts. A push returns the stake; that refund is not a fresh profit. Extra betting actions such as doubling down need additional funds. Keep enough in the same payment source for the action you choose.

Review the fee, energy cost and remaining entries for the chosen tier. An active tournament keeps its bracket and results as it progresses. Leaving by forfeiting records an eliminated finish, so read that action before using it. Prize money depends on the final result.

• VIP tournament tiers are locked; current membership does not unlock them.
• Stats separates wagering, winnings and losses so you can review the overall result.
• Annual addiction checks can bring urges, withdrawal and consequences involving partners or work.

An ordinary round spends the selected source. Double Down needs additional funds from that same source, so spare money in a different account may not be enough. Results, tournament entries and addiction effects are separate records. Repeated gambling can create annual effects on Happiness, relationships and work rather than only changing the visible balance.

Events can follow an activity, a relationship change or New Year. Read who is involved and the choices offered. Your circumstances affect what happens, so another character may see a different event or a different set of options.

Open Log to view Life Story, with the current year and earlier years. Notices and yearly summaries can collect money, school, work, family and health changes, but a summary does not necessarily appear every year. Resolve an open decision before starting New Year. Career milestones for family and contacts you know can appear in Life Story. An eligible milestone for a child or spouse may also offer a choice.

Life Story shows the current year and a batch of earlier years. Use Show earlier years to reveal more of a long life; older entries being below that button does not by itself mean they were lost. Home’s short Life Story view opens the full Log through View All.

The Log records the story. To take a new action, return to the person, school, career or other screen involved.

If New Year names an unfinished event or interview, return to that decision and answer it. School transitions, graduation and birth resolution can have their own required choices. Read the actual restriction before trying to advance again; performing a different activity does not answer an open decision.

The Life Story screen lets you read what happened. To take action, return to the relevant person or feature screen. Showing an earlier year does not rewind the character or reopen a completed choice.

Choose an eligible legal child in Manage Your Will and Save Will. This marks your preferred heir. At death, you can inspect and choose a different eligible heir. After a takeover, the Family Tree’s Past Lives tab records completed generations.

After the life recap, review Estate & Heirs. Debts, applicable tax, automatic family gifts and any cash bequests affect the amount left. Optional charity comes from remaining taxed cash after family gifts; homes, businesses, investments and possessions still pass to the chosen heir. Inspect the candidates, then choose the Play as button for the child you want to continue as.

You begin as the chosen child at their own age and with their own development. For a minor, inherited money is held in trust for ordinary spending until age 18. Open an heir’s inspection to select owned eligible Karma blessings or unlock an offered one. Birth-only bonuses do not apply here.

You can choose the no-heir option to end the bloodline and start again. Read the confirmation and any save error.

Open an heir’s inspection to select eligible owned Karma blessings or buy an offered one. Only heir-applicable bonuses are available; birth-only bonuses do not transfer through this picker. Choosing the no-heir route starts a different life instead of taking over the child. Read the estate and confirmation before leaving.

The game saves progress locally and synchronizes account saves to the cloud when available. Cloud synchronization can be delayed or fail, so read any save, connection or conflict warning before switching devices. Keep using the same signed-in account to find its lives.

In Settings, open Preferences, Appearance, then Viewing Mode for the theme. Use Preferences, Accessibility, then Typography or Text Size for reading options. Audio has its own tab, and Updates contains release notes. To repeat the introduction, use Profile, Account, then Replay Tutorial. If progress will not load, keep the recovery screen and report the issue before deleting or reinstalling anything.

Use the Help Center for troubleshooting and contact options. In the game's Settings, choose Profile, Account, then Report a Bug. Describe the steps, what happened and what you expected, then preview the information. Images, your email address and the extra game-state diagnostics are optional. Reports still include basic technical context, including your account identifier, character, current screen, build and recent actions when available. Keep the report code for follow-up. For private help, email support@choiceflow.life. The website's report builder prepares text for you to post in Discord; it does not submit a report from the game.

For membership and purchase records, open Settings, Profile, then Plus. Buy or restore purchases in the supported iOS or Android app, and wait for the account check to finish. Check what each purchase includes before buying; membership does not make unreleased features available.

At character selection, Retry is for a recoverable cloud download problem. An Update the app notice means that save needs a newer version. Update before retrying. Newer Data in Cloud offers Sync, while a deferred conflict offers Choose save. Read and compare the versions before choosing; these notices describe different problems.

Use the Characters tab in Settings to switch or start a life without changing accounts. If you need support, copy your Support ID from Profile, Account and include the affected character and steps that led to the issue. Keep the bug report code as well. A Game Username is the public leaderboard name, not the Support ID.

Wait for the action’s result and read any connection, version or conflict message. A recovery banner tells you which operation is waiting. Keep the existing data while diagnosing a load failure; do not treat creating a replacement character as a restore operation.

• Plan one year at a time: commitments first, then spare energy and money.
• Build a mix of relevant skills and read the next requirement before investing in equipment.
• Check the difference between revenue, profit, salary, prize money and estimated earnings from content creation.
• Keep a reserve for housing, loans, treatment, children and pet care.
• Read offers, contracts and irreversible choices before accepting.
• Return to people and responsibilities that matter to your character's story.

Open the role, course, tournament or relationship step you want next and note what is missing. Compare qualifications in Stats with trained skills and any separate equipment bonus. Spend on the specific item or activity required, then recheck the entry screen. A different item in the same shopping category may not satisfy it.

Finish your schoolwork, work activities and pending matches before using spare energy. Check the actual payment source: wallet cash, a personal bank account and a business account serve different actions. Revisit a child’s paid schooling plan and other annual commitments before New Year. If advancement is blocked, follow its named decision rather than assuming more energy or money is always the answer.

When an action is blocked, identify its exact missing condition first. Check the relevant requirement screen, current balance and active commitments, then take the step that satisfies that condition. A more expensive purchase or repeated action is not always the right fix.
