Stats (2024)

Stats are the four bars below your character that determine their well-being. They are randomised at the start, however happiness can be low in new generations due to the fact that the character has just lost their parent/lover. It is natural for stats to raise and lower a few points when aging up. Having higher percentages on the bars will make a character live longer and more successfully. Following the Fame update, if your character becomes famous, there is a fifth bar for Fame. Following the Politics update, there was another bar for Approval. In May 2019, Boosts were added to help characters with low stats be able to raise their bar. Players would have to watch an ad to get the boost if they are not a Bitizen. If a stat is at a low percentage (below 15%), it will show a warning sign that indicates that it is in jeopardy.

Starting Stats:

Happiness: 50 to 100

Health: 80 to 100

Smarts: 0 to 100

Looks: 0 to 100
