Steam"If corruption had already taken root, then good seeds must be preserved."

In this dystopian sim RPG, a cold and strict party known as the D.A.C (The Dominion of Absolute Control) has placed you in charge of making decisions over a street and its residents. Your job is to go to work, answer questions from residents and DAC party officials, and decide between the street's health or corruption and wealth.

Key features • Answer questions from civilians and party members • Balance between civilians health and the parties respect • Gain wealth and collect taxes • Upgrade and repair the street • Upgrade your player home • Day / night cycle • Weather system • Brainwash the civilians with propaganda

Lore Set in a Victorian dystopian world, a powerful party has taken control of the country with the mission to dominate the minds of the populace and convert every civilian into a loyalist. A disease is ravaging the country, killing the poor and working class. You'll encounter characters that range from DAC members, elitists, loyalists, and serial killers to factory workers and more. To survive this new job, you'll need to balance the needs of those around you and your own ambitions. Will you gain wealth and impress the party, or will you defy the DAC's wishes and help those in need?
