Little Lives

It's Okay. It needs to slow down in terms of life speed or be grindy. If it's both you don't have time to do either and get married etc, and it because it all happens so quickly you don't really care. I give it a solid meh

Little Lives, developed and published by Houndstooth Games, is a grounded life simulation that focuses on the gradual process of building a routine, shaping personal goals, and navigating the small but meaningful decisions that define everyday living. Set in the modest town of Littleton, the game places you in control of a customizable character starting from relatively humble beginnings, with no grand narrative pushing you forward—only the systems of daily life and the choices you make within them. It’s a design that deliberately avoids spectacle, instead emphasizing steady progression and personal direction. The core of the experience revolves around time management and prioritization. Each day presents a limited window in which you must decide how to allocate your energy—whether to focus on earning money, improving skills, maintaining your character’s well-being, or investing in social connections. There is no single “correct” way to play, and the game encourages you to define success on your own terms. You might pursue a stable career path, dedicate time to education, or simply explore different aspects of the town at your own pace. This flexibility is one of the game’s strong…

fun little game, but VERY brutal and slow moving especially at the beginning, really wish they would add steam workshop support, or even just allow modding the game in an easier way.

This game is fun for the most part. It is very hard though. Leveling your skills is almost impossible when you are trying to work, survive and if you have a family it's even harder. It's a good time waster game but it's no Sims.

I wanted to like this game. But it takes a long time to make money. Your clothing and furniture 'decay' and you don't even know when it's decaying. My character is always super tired cause for some reason after sleeping for 8 hours it only gets rid of a small amount of sleep. Maybe cause I need to upgrade my bed I guess, I dunno. All the mechanics are clunky and I wish they would do a big update on this game. Interactions with the NPCs are weird. Also the cars suck to drive. I wish there was a sanbox setting or dev commands so I can at least get my money's worth of the game. I play a LOT of sim games so it's not a user issue.

cute little cozy game! i love how realistic it is!
