GameplayWhat you do
Build it. Run it. Grow it.
01Build
Start with an empty room.
Lay out the floor, place the gear, hang the sign. Every venture starts as your plan.
02Run
Run it with your own hands.
Hire staff, restock the shelves, keep the lights on and the guests happy.
03Grow
Reinvest. Expand. Repeat.
Better gear, bigger rooms — then open the next door down the street.
04Away
Your city keeps working.
Five minutes or a whole evening — your ventures keep earning while you're away.
