Community Insight:
We love and like this game because its fun.
Good game fun and More! !!!!!! Love it.
This game is the best we can play it all day know matter the time.
The voices are adorable and it has so many cute creative animations. We were playing this with our mom and we were laughing and giggling the entire time. 10/10 definitely recommend this game and its definitely worth the price. Great for any ages young to old. Super fun to do with friends.
Its cool to be able to play with friends and have fun and when you dont have the game on hand you can play it right here plus this is a road trip addition so that just makes it more fun and its also very funny.
Its a great game but we think if there were more places to vacation rather than the same island over again itd be better.
We enjoy playing this game but it doesnt connect to Facebook and so we have to start all over again without our progress on our iPad. The spinner is not the easier to spin. Also we read in the description that more destinations were coming but we dont see any. Please update with new stuff! We also bought the Game of Life 2 Deluxe Bundle on our Switch last night. We are a fan. Please dont let us down.
Ok game but other game of lifes are better and this one is totally different.
Was very different than the other two life games but we actually like it better than the other two life games.
We LOVED playing the game. Great graphics. But once you collect all of the items for your scrapbook, that is it.. Are there going to be any new chapters? Kind of boring after the scrapbook is done. If there were other destinations, we would give it full five star review.
Oh, we read this three because its very laggy.
Fix the spinner. The game is unbearable to play as it is.
We got through volcano island thinking we would move onto the next destination, but it doesnt exist. You would think that since the game was created 4 years ago that new destinations would have been created/added. It was fun, but Im disappointed that we cant move on to a new destination. Maybe that is why the game only costs $1.99. We would love to see a new destination in the near future. Its not any fun playing the same destination once you have collected all of the postcards, souvenirs and photos. The game would definitely be better once new destinations are added.
The reason why its not a five star or four star its because you cant just have one little piece in the human. If you dont get to pick up animals or kids and stuff you literally have to pick like just one person or you have to pick a family. Its kind of annoying. And we dont like how we dont really get to create our own stuff, but we do like how we dont take away our points and we like how we have just like vacation like likes this doesnt really make sense but oh well and we like how we get to pick more fun stuff we really like the volcano. We never really made it past . The game is kinda long. And also, you can still play by yourself.
It takes way too long to download. It gets going longer every five seconds until it reaches like two hours when we were before like 13 minutes. But other than that, the game is pretty accurate.
Game is fun to play with the kids we nanny for however we cant give it more then 2 stars because its ridiculously difficult to spin the wheel please fix that and Ill change our rating.
New update: we wish we had different trips to take, this game gets very boring fast! The game is fun, however the spinner is very hard to spin. We need a bit more challenges like different locations, different prizes to collect. It is an okay game but not much fun when you have collected all the prizes.
The spinner makes it very difficult to actually play. It takes 4 or 5 tries to get a spin to read successfully. Were literally paying for this app, the least you could do is make it user friendly.
Love this game but could use an update in destinations like the other versions of Life games has.
This game is super fun! We just wish there were more maps.
Definitely love the features graphics and play its definitely a great step in the right direction!! Would love to see a ski resort or an amusement park of some sort.
We connect with video and audio on another app like FaceTime, Duo, or Zoom. Then we play Game Of Life Vacations. It is a great way to connect.
We Have Played The Game Of Life Back In The Day But we Havent Played The Game Of Life Vacation Until Now Greg Game it is The Best Game we Have Ever Played Please Release Another Installment And AlsoThe Music Is Great Keep Up The Great Work You All The. Est.
Play with with the Whole Family! Just Mirror it to the TV & everyone gets to play! Love this Game, not only on Phone but also in the Board Game.
Love this game but tired ofVolcano island. Need a change of place.
We absolutely enjoy playing this game.
One we wish we could choose the amount of players to play with like to play with two players only not three and definitely not fours.
Great amazing fun game but the spinner is really hard to spin.
We wish we could play with our family but they are working but even if Im playing with bots its fun we wish we can play all day everyday we would recommend but there is one problem sometimes of players dont ready up but you did on online play its kicks you out for inactivity but either way is amazing to play in summer and we also recommend game of life 2 and 1.
IM LIVE WITH THE APP/GAME. <3 Even though our sister did win the game, we still loved playing against her but at the same time bonding together! Before this game our sister and we did have complications with understanding and talking to one another. Now, Im able to have fun with our sister and be excited too! We love this game so much! Personally, we think you should save up and buy this app. You will see how easy it is to play, either against a bot or family members as such for what we did. AND did we forget to mention online players as well??? Please, download. Then tell the creators whats enjoyable or not about this game! Bye!!! ^^.
OMG its so much fun!! We love it so much.
We enjoy this game because we played the original version in real life and it was good but it was annoying when we set it up and count the money up. This game does it for you which is the best!!!! Also you guys did a great job with the map and cinematic stuff. We recommend this game to anyone who likes playing playing with people instead of by your.self.
Our grandson and we love to play this version! Its great.
We are playing the game of life vacation right now but we wan.
We like this game a lot but whenever we try to get in its just pauses when its loading.
Im obsessed with this app! Nobody should hate this app! It may have a few glitches but we love it! We really love the characters, islands, and the app itself! It is one of our most favorite apps ever! Therefore who would not love this app.
Amazing vacation game. Fun ! Fun!Fun.
When we got this game, everything was normal until MY SCREEN WAS PITCH BLACK!!!! Please fix it because we are a big fan of you Marmalade Games From: Lucas.
WHEN WILL WE GET A NEW DESTINATION.
We love this game. There is one huge problem. When you get to the waterfall, the animations for the cliff diving and tubing are reversed.
Fun with lots of little surprises! App works well.
This entertained our family and we for months during quarantine. We hope that there will updates soon.
Theres a few glitches in the game (avatars are flipped around so theyre backwards, select tubing and your character does a cliff dive; select cliff dive and theyll go tubing), but nothing that detracts from the game. Also, please add more destinations, though we dont want the vacation to end.
We dont know where to start with this game it is the best game ever we even have The game of life life is soooooooo much fun you get to pick your character and then the game begins whoever goes first is always fair you pick your hotel and get bonus points and go on safaris and take pictures and you get souvenirs.we love this game and we hope you do to so what are you waiting for download now.
Literally one of the best games out there!! Even better than the original because you actually get to engage the events!! Totally awesome and worth every penny.
Love the game. We want more islands to play on please.
It is so much fun like we said in the title. It is so worth the money.
Such a fun game! We have had a blast playing it. The graphics are great and it is such a cute, fun game! Definitely recommend.
This is almost as fun as the board game but it is close we enjoyed the game. Very much and we give it five stars.
We really like the game, especially that you can play with friends or people in your household as well as online players. We wish you would fix the bug in the Tubbing vs Cliff diving option, it does the opposite of each. Well at least on ours. Maybe we have to download it again, but just barely got it today so dont see how that could be it. Otherwise its fun, now if only we can master the wheel spinning lol, our wheel doesnt like us.
