Struggling to complete the first objective of Bitlife Around the Block because you have no idea how to be born in Illinois? You might find this guide helpful.
BitLife Guide – How to be Born in Illinois
Follow the steps below to create a female character born in Illinois.
- In the top left corner of the screen, click the three-striped icon.
- Choose New Life to begin customizing your character. Give your avatar a female name and customize its appearance and other attributes.
- For the gender, select female and Chicago as the birthplace. Given that the game’s birthplace selection menu only features city names, users cannot select a province as their default birthplace. Since Chicago is the state’s most populous city in Illinois, it makes sense to pick it as the location for this challenge.
- Once everything is in place, press the Start Life button to complete the first challenge objective.
