The Real Review

Paralives is a life simulation about building homes, lives, and bonds, and most people seem to be having a good time with it. The building is the star, with build mode and character creation landing really well, and the graphics and story also get plenty of praise. Performance is the big complaint, especially on PC and Mac, so expect trouble to sour the fun for some. It still feels worth the price to a lot of people, though difficulty and the Twitch/Steam chatter are rougher spots.
