Toca Avatar: My House

The screen opens on a blank avatar in an empty room, and the first thing you do has nothing to do with furniture: you build her face and outfit before she ever steps into the house. Toca Avatar My House hands you sliders and swatches for skin tone, hair, and a starter outfit, and every change shows up instantly on the little figure standing in the doorway.

Once she's dressed, the toolkit splits into rooms rather than racks. Bedroom items include a canopy bed, a round rug, and a row of framed posters; the kitchen has a mixing bowl, a cupcake tray, and a fridge stocked with cartoon food; the closet holds a puffer jacket, striped pajamas, and a pair of slide sandals. Furniture snaps to a grid so a couch and a coffee table line up automatically, and outfits layer the same way a cardigan sits over a t-shirt.

Most character creator games stop once the avatar is built, but this one keeps her doing things: she can crack eggs into the mixing bowl, frost a cake, or rearrange the living room while wearing whatever you dressed her in. There's no single ending, since the house stays open to poke around in, but finishing a recipe or a fully furnished room feels like its own small milestone before you move to the next space.

Dress the avatar in something loose and simple if you plan to spend time baking, since a few animations tug at sleeves and long skirts. Fill one room completely before jumping to the next, because half-furnished rooms make the house feel scattered rather than lived-in. Check the small arrow at the screen edge for hidden rooms, since it's easy to miss and it's where the kitchen extras are stored.
