Create an anime character in Gacha Life
Gacha Life is a free game that places you into a world of adorable chibi anime characters. You will be able to create your own character with the Dress Up featurw, and then make use of four further features to explore the world. In Studio Mide you can create scenes for your characters, Mini Games for additional fun, Gacha that will earn you props and other bonuses for your characters, and Life Mode that will allow you to meet NPCs in a virtual town.
The game is very similar in style to Gacha Club, although that title lacks minigames. As a family animation tool it has fewer features than Animiz.
Design your own character
The dress-up mode allows you to design your own character with different types of hair, clothes and so on. You will be able to store a total of 20 characters that you have created. Once you have made your characters, head to Studio Mode and build a story which can then be exported as a video and uploaded to YouTube so that your friends can watch as well.

Try the minigames
A total of eight minigames are available in Gacha Life. Ichi's Math is based around sums; Pick Pawket Rhythm and Phantom's Remix are music-oriented games; and Bex's Festival, Orca Sploosh, Abushu Candy Toss and Duck & Dodge are all action games themed around catching or avoiding objects. In addition, the Life feature could actually be termed a ninth game as you help your character to meet NPCs.
Cute fun for all ages
Gacha Life is designed to be appropriate for all ages. It is geared more towards children, who will enjoy the opportunity to customise a character and send them out into the virtual world to create short animated clips which can go onto YouTube. Adult players will likely find the features a little limited, although anybody who appreciates a degree of whimsy may find it fun for a while.
