This is the first review I’ve ever left. We need more apps like this. I thought it would be interesting, but I didn’t expect it to be so emotional or gripping. Thank you to the devs!

This is by far one of the most amazing games I’ve played, and I’ve played a lot. This isn’t your average interactive story game. This is a very intricate story that will make you second guess your choices. I do think there should be a bit of a trigger warning for this game. There are some very mature situations that might be extreme for others. I played this game before on my old phone but never got to finish it. It’s definitely worth downloading and will really put you in some emotional situations (I’m a very emotional person as it is). I’ve been playing nonstop for days. It will make you really want to be the best person you can for this little virtual child. 10/10 recommend.

There is only been one other game that hit me as hard as this, and I didn’t think I’d experience another. I’m glad I got to play it and get a small peek into the lives of so many, into experiences I’d never been taught.
My only suggestion is there be multiple ways the game can go. I was under the impression my choices mattered, and when finishing the game, I got the impression they didn’t. While in a sense I can see that’s what the intention may have been, I think there could be a way to bring that across and have multiple things that could happen depending on the choices you make. That would be a way to make this game able to be replayed.

Fun game but..

I was incredibly moved by this game. I felt Kalisz was my son and I found myself desperate to not only make him happy but keep him safe. That evil teacher.... That’s all I’ll say about that. I’ve literally had moments where I needed to escape. I haven’t had anything that moved like this in such a long time. It is a must play.

The topic is good the story is touching. But the animation/pictures are too simple. Not a lot of interesting things can do in the game. The kid is school age why she can not take shower herself and eat meal herself? It is not very playable

If this game was free, it would be excellent. But it’s not. I finished the game in under a day, and it’s one story. I’m getting a refund because this is ridiculous. It has one story, that I don’t think even has different outcomes. This is a disgusting theft of money.

(I'm not good at English.)The game was hard to play. Because it's too sad and heart-broken to see the child who is suffered from bad kids and many hard situation. I was so deeply connected emotionally with her, so the thing that I coulden't help her much more and make her smile was really desperate. But It's nice game..

A beautiful game that will not only make you think about the past but about today and the future as well. The story is both beautiful and sorrowful. I’m engrossed in my role as my child’s mother and feel for her as she experiences joy and sadness. I look forward to playing this game again and again to learn how to improve the life of my child in game.

Probably the best narrative

Version 1.3.102
Possibly the best narrative I’ve experienced on the entire App Store! It presents both a heartwarming and heartbreaking tale of a little German boy or girl, depending on your choice, being adopted shortly after WW2 in Norway. Norway was greatly impacted by the war because of how the German occupation treated them and then turned some Norwegian women into what most Norwegians viewed them as traitors and “sluts.” The story shares what happened to a decent amount of women back then during the German march through European countries. So your child is considered as a traitor against Norway so he/she’s pretty much treated as an outcast and also abused by the children and even adults, both physically and emotionally. At some parts I even caught myself tearing up. It’s a loving and jaw dropping story that definitely deserved to be shared to address victims of war. And the game may feel a little short, but with the amount of choices offered, its replayability is pretty high plus most of the money players paid for the game will actually go towards a good cause to help victims of war in these tough times. It shares a message that family matters and no matter what bloodline you come from, you’re still special. It was also a great history lesson that shares some things that some of us did not know of about the war and its aftermath. The art style used is also amazing! Thank you, devs, for this amazing game! I hope there will be a sequel or an expansion to this!

I hit a spot in the game where Klaus just simply never came home. I waited as long as possible but without being able to put him to bed, I couldn’t move on to the next day to figure out what happened. I redid the previous few chapters in case I made a bad choice or something, a couple times, and it all led to the same outcome. Help me out here? He was fed, bathed, completely taken care of.
I wondered if there weren’t any more chapters. It’s not worth it to pay $2.99 to only play for a collective total of 2-4 hours and hit a dead end.
Thank you.

I don’t usually write reviews but I feel the need to sing my praises for this game. It was really incredible and I couldn’t hardly put it down on my first play through. The game is very educational and contains a lot of real-life statistics and information, but I feel as though all of this info was delivered in a very organic way. It still feels like a game, not a history lesson. I grew very attached to the child I adopted, Karin, and although I know she’s a fictional character my heart still aches when I think of what she went through. The artwork is simple and charming but at the same time I was impressed that so much emotion is conveyed through the facial expressions and animations of your child. You’re forced to make some very difficult decisions as their parent and I wasn’t prepared for how serious things became in the story. I look forward to playing again and can’t wait to see if the developers make anything else as well.

Simple game play that is a bit repetitive at times but you quickly become invested in little Karin or Klaus when they continue to come home tormented by school peers. Such a sad game, made worse by it’s similarity to real life. Bullying is a strong theme in this game, as well as post WWII recovery and social perceptions of Germans after the war.

Amazing game

It was so difficult to play this game. I had to raise her without any help, and my poor Karin had to go through all these things.
I couldn’t stop myself playing this game even though it broke my heart into pieces.
Everyone needs to know this game, to know this part of the history, to prevent history happening again.
I wish Karin move to somewhere safe and kind to her and live a happy life.

This story brought tears to my eyes...it was beautiful...I wanted to cry everyday when Little Klaus got home from school all dirty with bruises on him...Towards the bed of the story it made me really sad when he didn’t want to eat bathe or for me to even touch him! The story was beautiful the animation graphics were lovely and I was so sad when the story ended because I wanted me to be there when we moved so I could watch klaus hopefully get a better life....5/5 stars and if you are reading the reviews wondering if you should buy this app, you should...At first I didn’t want to waste my money on it but I’m so glad I did...it was one of the best apps I’ve ever played...so if you are still wondering whether to buy it or not I’m just going to tell you you will regret it if you don’t buy it!

What an amazing game and experience. The story and role you play is emotionally gripping, and I found myself truly caring for little Klaus. As a parent, I connected with the tough dialog choices, as oftentimes in real life it is difficult to decide how honest to be with a child without giving them more information than they can handle. The game designers did a fantastic job providing a realistic and meaningful yet streamlined interaction with Klaus that captures the essence of raising a child, and forces you to make tough choices, like balancing work and providing care with spending quality time. I was captivated by this story, and with taking care of Kraus, and it was fascinating (and saddening) to learn about this slice of post-war history. Thank you to the development team for this powerful, educational, and unique experience. I won’t soon forget it.

Jumping into the game, I had no idea what to expect. I selected Karin as my adopted child and set out on a journey to make her life the best it could be. I have never had such an emotional attachment to a character in any game until now. My Child Lebensborn Covers the difficult topic of bullying and you can recognise the effects firsthand, this game brought back a lot of memories of my past bullied experiences as a child. It took me five hours to play through the game and I felt Karins pain of wonderment as to why no one likes her.
10/10 on the story 5 Stars for character development. This game exceeded my expectations immensely.

This game is simultaneously the most heart-warming and the most gut-wrenching experience I have ever played, and it puts all other mobile games to shame. This is just true art. It outdoes so many games with millions of dollars behind it made by hundreds of people with such a simple yet incredibly effective premise. This is something every person should have, not only because it is a great experience, but also because it only adds to your knowledge of the human condition and expands your ability to empathize with people. It brought a concept often overshadowed by the rest of the war right to you, and assured you that you will never forget it. An absolutely fantastic work worthy of being kept in a museum for future generations to look back on.

This game broke me. I didn’t expect for it to touch me the way that it did. I agonized over every decision I made because I didn’t want to hurt Klaus but I did want to foster an open, safe, and loving relationship with him. As I played through this game I smiled, I became angry, I almost cried many times feeling the hopelessness of our situation together. It also made me think of my son, I did everything to keep Klaus happy bc I couldn’t help but see my son in Klaus; so innocent, so kind, so defenseless.
I LOVED this game, it definitely left its mark on my heart.

This is a great game that might actually made me cry. I only wish to know what happened afterwards... after “we” got away, also I wish I was more powerful in the game like when some bad kids come around I could actually do something, also I was very curious about what that bad teacher have done in the end since that story was never told. But after all, great game, touching story, perfectly detailed. Thank you for making such a good game!

You will likely never find another game that touches upon the sensitive topic that this game discusses: the fate of German-fathered children in Norway after WWII. You take on the role of the parent of such a child, raising your son or daughter in a world still dealing with the traumas of occupation. As you work to feed your new child, the complex storyline of his or her bullying calls you to care for them a best you can, using reading their body language and words, both of which are expertly written and drawn. I will not reveal how the story goes, but suffice it to say, the game is an excellent one. It’s definitely worth downloading if you want to have some real feelings and learn about about a piece of history you never knew existed.

Beautiful, heartbreaking and hopeful

I played this game not expecting to feel the strong emotional connection I felt throughout my time with Klaus. I fell in love with this little boy.
My heart breaks knowing his story is true, and so many other innocent children grew up with such deep sorrow- how could they ever understand why?
The writing, art design, sound and music... everything together create a mood of intimacy and honesty.... how much do you want to share with your little one as you find out more and more details from their past? The choices can hurt- but I wanted to be honest with him. Ugh!
I love this game- I recommend it with all my heart.
