Paralives is an upcoming life simulation game developed by Alex Massé and his team. Fans of The Sims 5, also known as Project Rene, have been quick to compare the two games due to some of the new interior design aspects being developed for The Sims 5. Paralives promises to be a dream come true for life sim fans, offering a refreshing art style and several fan-requested features currently missing from EA's simulation game.
The character customization options are incredibly detailed and intuitive. Players will be able to customize every aspect of their character, from size and build, to body part shapes, skin colors, eyes and hair. They can even give their Parafolks tattoos that can be placed anywhere they want. Additionally, clothing is completely customizable with players able to choose the cut, pattern and color of each item of clothing or even layer multiple pieces together.
Players can buy land and build their own house from scratch using a simple but powerful building system with measurements displayed in cm and degrees for angles. Everything is fully modular so you can resize both building elements and furniture as well as determine the color and texture. The tools available in this mode seem very intuitive but also offer plenty of innovation for this type of game as it is grid-free allowing players greater freedom when designing their homes.
Paralives looks set to be a must-have game for any life simulation fan when it eventually launches with its realistic visuals, detailed customizations options and innovative building tools creating a truly immersive gaming experience like no other.
