Toca Life World: Build a Story

YOUR CRASH COURSE

Explore Eight Connected Locations

Move characters freely between Bop City's apartments, the shopping mall, the hair salon, the food court, the school, the hospital, the vacation island, and the farm. Any item can be picked up and carried across locations — take groceries from the market to your home kitchen.

Build Your Character Cast

The character creator holds up to dozens of custom avatars, each with unique hair, clothing, and accessories. Save entire families, friend groups, or fantasy casts, then swap between them with a tap as your story shifts from the classroom to the beach.

Decorate and Redecorate

Furnish homes, rearrange store layouts, and set up elaborate scenes using thousands of furniture and decor items. The decorating system supports multi-floor buildings with stairs, so ambitious designers can build entire apartment complexes one room at a time.

Record Your Own Stories

The built-in screen recorder captures both video and your own voice narration, turning gameplay into a personal animated series. Kids cast themselves as voice actors for every character, building storytelling confidence while creating shareable content for family.

Collect Weekly Surprises

Open free gift boxes every week to receive rare furniture, exclusive outfits, and limited-edition pets. Long-time players accumulate collections — plushies, food items, seasonal decorations — that new players can't access, rewarding loyalty without gating core creative tools.
