Just a Life

Just a Life is a less-featured real-time simulation based on the concept of The Sims. Compared to that title, it does not feature character customization or home customization. The character itself is also not visible at all during gameplay.

The game monitors how much money the character has, the hunger / relax / satisfaction levels, as well as the current job and the courses the character attends. It does not provide any goals to achieve, the character just needs to be kept alive as long as possible. Controls include the mouse to click on interactive items and perform actions, numeric keys to change the weather, arrow keys to move the camera and the Ctrl key to rotate the screen.

The game is over when the character runs out of money or due to starvation or a lack of life satisfaction. It can be played by up to four players at the same time.
