How to play
Pick a scenario, tune the city settings, hit Start game, and then move the three policy levers while the city keeps evolving day by day.
Build your response plan, pick the city mood, and steer the outbreak with a mayor's eye on health, movement, and recovery - the city needs you help to overcome this pandemic.
Pick a scenario, tune the city settings, hit Start game, and then move the three policy levers while the city keeps evolving day by day.
Every district tracks susceptible, infectious, and recovered residents. Movement along streets imports risk across neighborhoods and reshapes the outbreak wave.
Finish with the highest score possible. Score = 100 x [average(Economic use / 200) + average(S / 2N)], so it rewards steady economic use and keeping more residents susceptible throughout the run.
Clamp down on trips between districts. It cuts imported spread hard, but it also drags the economy down faster than the other tools.
Find cases early and get infectious residents out of circulation sooner. Great for health outcomes, with a smaller economic penalty than lockdowns.
Reduce risk per encounter through masking, cleaner air, distancing, and public messaging. It shines when paired with the other two levers.
Public health is stable for now.
Business activity is waiting on your next move.
Residents are watching whether policy and reality still match.
The city cabinet needs a quick call. Pick one option and the simulation will continue.
