Alter Ego App Reviews

It was a pretty good game, but what made it great is when my character died early on and I felt true sadness and despair. I didnt realize I was so attached to my character until they left

After reading some reviews, I was concerned that this app wouldnt be very good. Some said that they had only bad choices, and were upset. I however find those people to be very wrong. I throughly enjoyed this app, especially because if you do something that is kind and good hearted, you are rewarded. I believe that the people who gave bad reviews made bad decisions. I think this app teaches that good people who are kind to others are more successful in life than those who arent. I want to make sure that this app isnt falsely reviewed. I took off one star because of the price.

Want a game where you cant to anything cool with punishment then this game is for you

listen. i like this game a lot but its missing one thing. why cant i be gay?

For the many frustrations Ive encountered while playing this game, its not worth $5 at all. There need to be some major improvements or a price drop at least. $5! For this!? First of all, the game comes off as very sexist. I played through both the make and female lives and it seems very different in a bad way. And why cant I propose as a female or ask my man on a date? Ridiculous. And when I finished college in each experience, with a major in natural sciences, the male character made $90,901 per turn and the female made $43,403, while both in the health services 2 career. Thats outrageously different. Besides that, you do not get to spend enough time at each stage of life. Id really like to be able to get through each icon and see all of the stories without having to play the game over and over. Its a cool game, but frustrating and it bores me after a while especially when I have to start a new life so soon. It would also be nice to be able to see a potential partners characteristics before committing to starting to date them. And it would be great if it wasnt always impossible to have a child. I always take up nearly my entire middle adulthood trying and I end up having to adopt when Im old. Also, I think the college experiences need to lay off all the romance when I already have a boyfriend. Maybe focus less on that and more on going to parties or working on assignments or something. All in all, I love this game, but it needs some change before Id believe its worth $5.

I found this game on an app review sight for the visually impaired community and was so excited to play it. I was not disappointed. I find that some authors who write multiple choice/choose your own adventure type games can be rather limiting in the way they write their games. This one gave me plenty of scenarios and was well worth the money. I do wish I could play through all the icons in a life stage. But, at the same time, not being able to causes me to be strategic about the icons I do choose to play through. To those who say this game is unrealistic, I disagree. In life, we often choose to mentally or actively focus on the parts of our lives we enjoy. And if we neglect the parts we dont enjoy, other parts of our lives suffer. In this game, if you neglect one type of story, your statistics suffer and you can pay for that neglect during your next life stage. So choose wisely and reap the rewards as your game progresses. Or dont choose wisely and just watch the fun. The choice is yours.

Very enjoyable. Bittersweet, as I got to look back and realize not all the good or bad that has happened to me was my own decision. After playing through once for free, I decided you were worth supporting! Please make more.

I love the game, but Ive been engaged 5 times, and every time Ive been left at the alter.

I love games where I can make choices, so I am in love with this whole game. I like the features and all the random possibilities. One thing I hate is that I cannot see the number of turns I have left in a certain age group, and the fact that I believe checking your stats decreases the number of turns when It shouldnt. I also think certain events should not count either, especially if you cant go through bc youre missing something. Otherwise its great I hope you keep updating

I have played this app so much and I love it! However after a while the same old scenarios get boring. So if you could add more and randomize them so that sometimes you get them and sometimes you dont (wether you click the place they had been before or not) that would be awesome! So would adding options like sex change and same sex dating and marriage. I would enjoy that a lot.

This game is truly amazing, I love everything about it. But there are a few things that you should add. You should choose how fast the game goes from the beginning by increasing or decreasing the amount of things you can do per chapter. For me I want it to be longer because I feel like I blew threw the game by trying to have a baby over and over again. So I spent almost no time in early adulthood and adulthood. It also shouldnt count as a move if you purchase something or even try to have a baby (only if it fails). So ya being able to select how long the game goes would be helpful. But still a unique and wonderful game.

I absolutely love this game, I just wish their was an option to who you marry, whether you marry a boy or a girl. Like if youre gay, I think youd want to choose which gender you end up with.

This game can be heartwarming or heart-wrenching . Just an absolutely beautiful game!

This app is amazing! I dont normally have games on my phone, but I havent put this down since I bought it. I was a little sketchy about paying $5, but its totally worth it in the end. This is a beautifully written story! The narrator is very intelligent and informative, although s/he can be a bit harsh sometimes. I really do wish that it didnt have super strict gender roles though, and I dont really want to be with a guy in it. Why dont we have a same-sex option?

This game hit me in the feels

Oke so the price is a little much but before u use Your money go on a computer or tablet And online its free .Great game needs update

I played the online version until I could save up money for the app. And although the app is AWESOME, I noticed the beginning is missing. In the online version, you take a short quiz to help determine what person youd like to be. And Ive also seen the same sex thing which has been bothering me as well, and the length of each stage. An option to stay in the life stage before moving on would be great.

I was waiting to buy this for some time, and it didnt disappoint. It felt a bit short, but that didnt diminish the games value.

Im in my mid teens and Ive been doing a lot of thinking over things like this and this game is my way of acting them out. My only suggestion would be to allow for more time spent in each chapter overall because I felt rushed.

I did not see anything amazing about this game. Navigation was odd in that it allows you to experience your life out of order and there is no back button if you accidentally go to the wrong place. I found the game text and choices to be banal, but I only played it for a little while before losing interest. Definitely not worth $5.
