What are the seven endings?

A short life, a hard life, an ordinary life, a happy life, an adventurous life, a soap-opera life and a legendary life.

Life after life

The endless life simulator

One soul, as many lives as you want. Each one is drawn from real birth odds and plays out by itself, twists and all. Your soul passport keeps count.

About 363,000 babies are born today

One soul. Endless lives.

Be born somewhere, watch the whole life play out year by year, then be born again somewhere else. Your soul passport keeps count: countries, years, and every kind of ending.

Real birth and lifespan statistics, soap-opera twists. Your passport stays in this browser.

Beyond humansNow be reborn as any animal →One in a trillion: the same lottery for every animal on Earth, by real head counts. Ant, bat, cow, human or panda?

How the endless version works

Press start and a life begins somewhere in the world, weighted by where babies are really born today. The years tick past with school, work, love and plot twists, until it ends. Then you are born again.

Your soul passport counts every life: how many, how many years in total, how many countries, and which of the seven endings you have collected, from a short life to a legendary one.

Why play it more than once

One life tells you little. Fifty lives show you the world as it is: most people are born in Asia and Africa, most lives are ordinary, and a few are wild. Can you collect all seven endings?

Prefer to make the choices yourself? Play the Birth lottery (3 min) or the full ten-choice version.
