Runway Life – Tips, Tricks, Cheats, and Strategy Guide


Runway Life is a new iOS game by Pocket Gems, the crew behind Paradise Cove and Epic Empire. You play as a model who has rebelled against her former modeling agency, run by the ruthless Gloria Winship, the Anna Wintour of this game, and your goal is to turn your new agency into the new hotness. Read on for some tips and tricks for Runway Life!

Your main goal with the photo shoots is to get the highest percentage of votes that you can. You’ll be placed up against a model that looks exactly like you but with some changes in dress. It’s the little details that count here, so when you are dressing your model, pay attention to detail to make sure that you get the most of your money’s worth.



You can earn money by voting on other models in head to head matchups. Another way to figure out what you should do is, when you are voting on other models, try to guess which models are going to be the most-voted-for out of the current matchup. Keep this up and you’ll start to pick up on trends – and on other little details such as level of zoom, where the model is centered, etc.

Complete the available goals in order to earn free gems. These will also help you figure out what to do next in the game. Some of these quests will require you to buy an item that costs gems, such as at Heloise’s. These will unfortunately not usually be worth it – for example, the Crystal Tears Purse quest costs seven gems and earns you one gem.


Collect commissions from your models to keep the cash flow coming. You will know when your model is ready to pay you some cash because of the dollars popping up over their heads. Go and tap on them to collect the money, and check back as often as possible so that you can collect the most money and buy more clothes.

Only buy the decorations if you have the cash to do so, or if you have to in order to complete the quest. Otherwise, you can generally do without them. Once you purchase decorations you can’t sell them; you can only place them into storage if you don’t want them around anymore.
