Play in the browserHow LifeSim does it
LifeSim calls its events happenings. They appear on the map as you play. Examples are a house party, birthday drinks, karaoke, and a pickup game.
Some happenings are big moments: a grand opening, a proposal, or a public breakup. You can walk there and talk to the people.
Each day ends with a recap of its moments. Chats and activities can change your money, your health, and your relationships.
