Lifestyle Gaming

Lifestyle Gaming is a digital distribution and gaming service for the Lifestyle product line originally developed by Clever Interactive and currently managed by Lifestyle Technologies since 3 October 2022.

Store
Users can access the store to purchase games, extra content, and game subscription services like Lifestyle Gaming All and Clever Games Plus.

Game Trials
For select games, users can try out a certain game for a limited amount of time before they have to purchase it to continue playing it or access the game again. Some games that support it may have different time limits depending on the length of the game. After their time is up, users will have the choice to purchase the game and continue their session and access it forever, or close the game and lose any unsaved progress they’ve done in the game.

Game Rentals
Game Rentals allow users to purchase a game for half of its price and can play it for 7-days before they have to purchase half of the game's price again to access it forever.

Connect
Users can connect their Lifestyle device to another Lifestyle device in order to either play local wireless multiplayer in supported games, or to act as a game controller.

Some games may allow for a connected Lifestyle device to act as a second screen.

Drop Play
Drop Play is a feature that allows other users to join a local wireless multiplayer session in supported games without requiring their own copy of the game the host is using, similar to Nintendo‘s Download Play.

Drop Play Fast
Drop Play Fast differs from regular Drop Play as it allows supported games to have a separate version for local wireless multiplayer that can be downloaded by the user. This allows games to have even more features and content that regular Drop Play could not.

Drop Play Fast versions of games can be downloaded either by it being downloaded alongside the full game, or if the user doesn’t have a copy, can download it separately through the Internet or through local wireless connections and can access the game they're going to play in their library.

Share Play
Share Play is a feature that lets users create their party for their friends to join to either watch the host play the game, play local multiplayer games that don’t have a native online mode, or to take over control of a game the host is playing if they're stuck at a particular section.

Certain games may allow users in a Share Play party to have control of a game for 60 minutes, while others may require a copy of the game or if they have a Lifestyle Gaming All membership with the game the host is playing.

Share Play is disabled when a user is playing a game through online multiplayer.

Lifestyle Gaming All
Lifestyle Gaming All is a video game subscription service in Lifestyle Gaming that gives access to a library of games. The service launched on the app in 20 November 2020.

There are two tiers, Standard gives users access to indie games in addition to smaller titles from major developers and publishers, while Premium allows users to access even more games like AAA titles and gives members exclusive content and discounts for games.
