Be born into another household

How Family and Relationships Shape a Life

This page explains one part of the game. It is an independent copy, not the official site. The life itself starts on this language’s homepage.

The family you do not choose

Parents, whether they are present, and siblings are part of the birth setup. So is the household’s economic situation. This page cannot reroll only the family.

What can happen. None of these steps is required.
SettingOn this copy
1Parents, their situation and siblings are set at birth. You do not pick the household.
2Friends can appear at school, at work or nearby. A high relationships score does not summon a particular person.
3Marriage is an event with its own age window and country timing. The relationships bar is not a marriage meter.
4Distance, separation and deaths can change who is still near. The page does not offer a way to undo that.

The relationships bar

Relationships is a model of bonds with family and friends. It can touch marriage, children, school and loneliness later. It is not a meter that reaches marriage at 100.

Where people can meet

School, work and the neighborhood are ordinary places a friend event can use. If the character is not in that setting, the meeting does not appear. That is a condition, not a missing button.

Love and marriage

The wedding event in the source is limited to a band around the place’s modeled marriage age, inside a wider 13 to 50 range. It is not guaranteed, and a high relationships score does not force it. This page will not rank partners.

Children and parents

Children, if any, depend on the life already lived. They can leave, live elsewhere, or die. The game may mention separation. It is not a guide to family life outside the simulation.

Moving away

A move can leave parents or a partner far away. Care and contact then depend on that distance. Coming home is an event the life may or may not offer.

Care is not a happiness guarantee

Family focus can lean toward relationships and Happiness. Money, health and other events still move the year. Nothing here tells you how to treat a real family.

Family questions

The event page lists a few verified conditions, not every family story.

Why was there no marriage choice?

The age, the place’s timing, or the life’s situation did not open it.

Why events differ

Why did a family member disappear?

Death, a move, or a separation event can do that. It is not always a bug.

Are relationships and happiness the same bar?

No. They are two of the four stats.
