Stick Life: The Daily Grind

One life. 24 minutes a day. Rent is due.

You wake up in a tent with pocket change. The city has a job for you, a bed you can't afford yet, fifty people with their own routines, and a clock that doesn't stop. What you make of it is up to you.Work your way up, or around

• Start on the bottom rung at BusinessCorp and interview your way to the corner office, then buy the company.

• Learn a trade, work a restaurant shift, or haul boxes at the warehouse.

• Go to college or university for the degree the next promotion wants.

• Get scouted for the spotlight and play the job: headline a rhythm set, work a comedy crowd, take the kicks on game night.

A city that notices you

• Fifty residents with jobs, homes and schedules. Talk, make friends, fall in love, move in, get married.

• Sell counterfeit watches if you dare. Every refusal adds heat, and the police walk the street.

• Adopt from the shelter, win over a stray with the right snack, or bring home a tiger.

Spend it all

• Climb from a tent to a lease to the last house on Cash Money Oaks.

• Furnish every room in build mode.

• Buy, maintain and upgrade a garage full of cars.

• Play the tables, bet on the races, trade on the Street Exchange.

And an evening out

Bowl a league night, beat the pinball machine, defend the planet in VOID PATROL, win trivia at the wine bar, or play a tiny life sim on the computer at home.Features
