Choose where you are born

Pick any of 172 countries — or let a random draw weighted by population decide — then choose the past, present, or future. A single life takes about 30 to 90 minutes.

Real statistics, every year

Infant mortality, GDP per capita, education, causes of death and more come from public data such as the UN World Population Prospects 2024.

Your choices matter

Decide where to focus each year and how to spend your money — choices shape your health, happiness, knowledge, relationships, and net worth.

Health report & longevity tips

When a life ends, see which changeable factors — smoking, chronic illness, relationships, income and more — likely added or cost years, based on WHO and other public research. General information, not medical advice.

Family tree

See the family you were born into across generations, and export it as GEDCOM.

Bookshelf of past lives

Every finished life gets a birth certificate and a place on your bookshelf, so you can revisit it or download its certificate.

Lab: compare countries

Run 20 to 200 lives at once and compare two countries side by side to see the bigger picture.

Private by design

Your lives are saved only in your own browser. Nothing is uploaded.

Handled with care

Death, violence, and suicide happen at their real statistical rates, but are never described graphically, and the game shows where to find help. You can also choose to skip distressing events.
