Lagos Life FAQ

Yes. Lagos Life is a free-to-play browser game. You open it on the official Lagos Life website and play directly in your browser. Optional paid wallet top-ups exist for in-game naira, but you do not need to pay to play.

No download is required. Lagos Life runs in your browser on desktop and mobile. There is no client to install — open the official site, sign up or continue as a guest, and start playing.

No. Lagos Life is an independent browser game set in Lagos, Nigeria. It is not built on Roblox and is not listed on the Roblox platform — the similarity ends at the life-sim genre.

Your progress is tied to your Lagos Life account when you register. A guest option lets you try the game first, but we have not seen the developers document how long guest progress is kept, so register if you want to keep what you earn.

No. In-game naira has no real-world value under the official terms: it cannot be cashed out, traded, or transferred. Real money only flows one way — optional wallet top-ups that buy in-game currency.

Three cities: Lagos, Port Harcourt and Abuja, each with its own map tab. We list 30 places in Lagos, 32 in Port Harcourt and 69 in Abuja, all with opening hours. Only the Lagos Oil Refinery is still marked coming soon.

Sea Plots are official paid spots on the water where players can display a picture and a link. Every submission is reviewed before it goes live, and content that breaks the rules is taken down without a refund.

Lagos Life was created by an independent Nigerian developer and went viral in early October 2026. The official game is playable at lagoslife.eliysites.com, and this wiki is an independent player-made guide.

Not that we have found. As of October 6, 2026 there is no official app-store listing; the official site says to play free in your browser. You can add the website to your home screen for app-style access.

Yes, as long as you have a modern mobile browser. Open the official site in Chrome, Safari, Firefox or Edge, sign up or continue as a guest, and play. Nothing needs to be installed.

The official game is at lagoslife.eliysites.com, and lagoslife.app serves the same game. Beware of misspelled or look-alike addresses, and never enter your password on a page you did not reach from the official site.

Yes. The Lagos, Port Harcourt and Abuja airports are listed as open 24 hours and flights are one way to travel between cities. The Lagos Oil Refinery in Apapa is still marked coming soon, with no announced date.

We cannot rate the game for age. It is a shared online city where players chat and meet each other, so check the official site and its terms, and supervise younger players the way you would on any online game.

They are the two starting origins, drawn at random once per account. Nepo baby gets ₦500,000, a furnished Lekki flat with rent paid, a car and a bank job. Lapo baby gets a ₦60,000 loan, a cheap room, Hustle level 2 and 25% faster skill learning.

Pay is per shift on a five-level ladder, from ₦6,600 at the bottom to ₦99,000 at the top (Afrobeats Giant in Music). There are 33 careers across the three cities; the jobs and salaries guide lists them all.

Rent is collected every Saturday and runs from ₦1,200 per week for a UNILAG hall to ₦1,500,000 per week for a Banana Island mansion. Moving costs three times the weekly rent and your furniture comes with you.

No. We found no way to send naira to another player in Messages or Contacts, and the Bank's money history only records transfers between partners. Anyone asking you for money in chat is asking for something the game does not let you do.

A flight takes about 52 seconds of real time, a coach ride shows about an hour but fast-forwards if you leave it running, and a night bus is a flat ₦25,000. Coaches start at ₦20,000 and Economy flights at ₦121,000. Do not press Esc during a ride: it cancels the trip.

It runs in real time: one game minute is one real minute, which we measured as 36 game minutes over 35 real minutes. The clock pauses while you are offline. Shifts, opening hours and rent (Saturday 9 AM) all follow it.

Every business pays once a day, at 6:00 PM, and you do not need to be there. Each has a 10% chance of a bad day, and selling returns 60% of the price. We bought the ₦150,000 Recharge and Data Kiosk, which makes ₦700 to ₦3,200 a day.
