Microlandia

In Microlandia, you are the town mayor. You build public infrastructure , you give zoning permission for commercial or residential use, and you manage taxes and budget.

With a simple voxel-based graphics inspired by the classics like the original SimCity, and under the hood, a brutally detailed simulation: Life of your virtual citizens is rich with complex details based in true city life statistics and challenges:

💀 If citizens get sick and there's no hospital capacity, they die.

💼 When they can't drive to work because there's no road or excessive traffic, they get fired.

📉 When companies don’t make ends meet, they go bankrupt, and everyone is fired.

🤑 When the supply of housing is scarce, landlords get greedy and increase rents.

👩‍❤️‍👩 Citizens fall in and out of love and can have children.

🚧 Roads cost thousands of dollars per kilometer, and it's a huge investment for the city.

💸 On the other hand, a housing building will be paid for by the private sector, and it’s virtually "free".

🥷 When citizens have no job for some time, they consider a career in the criminal underworld.

📈 Simulation mechanics are carefully modeled after publications like World Bank Open Data, U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, National Equity Atlas, and others. You can check a detailed list of parameters used in the simulation here.

The objective is to build a good enough simulation so it can provide real insight into the social, economic, and environmental challenges of modern life. It still aims to be a fun game, but unlike other city builders, it doesn’t have the constraints of needing to be a simplistic product.
