Lagos Life FAQ
What is the Lagos Life game?
Lagos Life is a free, Sims-style life simulation set in Lagos, Nigeria. You get a home, a job and a set of needs to manage, then share the city with other real players. It runs in your web browser at lagoslife.app.
Is Lagos Life free?
Yes. You can play without paying. The game sells top-ups of in-game naira, but that money stays in the game and can never be cashed out.
Where do I play Lagos Life?
The official game is at lagoslife.app. Press Play on this site and we open it for you in a full-size window, with a starter checklist next to it.
Is there a Lagos Life APK or app download?
No. Lagos Life is a web game, so there is nothing to install. Any APK that claims to be Lagos Life is not from the developer. You can add the site to your home screen if you want an icon.
How old do you have to be to play?
The game asks for your date of birth at sign-up and is for adults 18 and over. Younger players are told to come back when they're 18.
