Lifespan is a slow-paced and surrealistic pastiche of five episodes. [4]

Reception

George Kopp for Electronic Fun with Computers & Games said "As it stands, Lifespan's gameplay doesn't quite live up to expectations (or Expectations). I think it will have a lot of fans, though, and if you're looking to buy your shrink a birthday present, consider it." [5]
