To Pixelia Build the life you want

You start at the bottom, and the bottom is honest work: cleaner, baker, butcher, waitress. Study at college, put in the hours, and the ladder opens up. The top of it is wide: musician, painter, supermodel, basketball player, underground fighter, politician, even president. Progress takes dedication; talents grind up slowly, and the game will not hold your hand about where to go next. If you like a life sim that makes you earn the penthouse, this is that.

Pixelia is packed with detail. Rent or buy a place through the real estate office, then furnish it your way; a washing machine actually washes, mirrors let you fix your make-up. Cook from recipes you dig out of old books, or experiment with ingredients until something new lands on the plate. Keep your needs and health in check or you will get sick, pay your rent every week, and watch your wallet like a student. How people react to you depends on your charisma, mood, wealth and fame. There is also farming, fishing and quiet country life in Pixenville, if the city grind wears you down.

Not every career happens in an office. Write and compose your own songs, form a band with hired musicians, and play gigs to grow your fame and fanbase. Chat up the Pixelians, there are hundreds of them, and take a romance as far as your flirt skill will carry it. Or skip respectability entirely: throw punches, knock out rivals, loot what they drop, and run from the police. If you want your violence sanctioned, become an underground boxer and fight professionals instead. Later you will drive cars and motorcycles, and yes, a rowboat. The tone stays cute and pixel-bright even when your Pixelian is up to no good.
