About Heirloom
Heirloom is a text life simulator that follows one American family across a century. Live a life year by year, make the choices that shape it, and when it ends, carry on as one of your children. Every generation becomes a page in your family album.
Live a life, year by year
- Tap +1 Year and see what life brings: school, first crushes, jobs, love, children and old age
- Every year brings choices that change your happiness, health, smarts, looks and money
- Do activities, from dance halls and the movies to the gym, the library and a seaside vacation
- Study hard, go to college, law school or medical school, and climb the career ladder
- 45 careers with real titles, from soda jerk and switchboard operator to astronaut and data scientist
- Date, marry, raise children or adopt, buy a house and a car
Live through history
- Start your family in 1900, 1920, 1930, 1945, 1960 or 1980
- Real headlines arrive as newspaper front pages: the 1929 crash, the Depression, the war years, the polio vaccine, rock 'n' roll, the Moon landing, the first home computers, the World Wide Web and more
- Prices and wages follow the times: a movie ticket costs 25 cents in the 1920s and a house costs a few thousand dollars
- Every choice you make in history becomes part of your family's story
A family that goes on
- When a life ends, choose which child carries on the family story
- Your heir inherits the family money and the heirloom chest
- Collect 32 heirlooms from every era, from a gold pocket watch and a gramophone to a diner jukebox and a first home computer; they grow in value and quietly help whoever keeps them
- Earn 22 rosettes, from Scholar and Veteran to True Love and Centenarian
- Spend legacy stars on family traits like Good Genes, Sharp Minds and Family Fortune that every future generation is born with
A new day, a new challenge

- Keep your daily streak going
Fair and free
