How WORLD works

WORLD is a persistent city life-sim. You create a citizen, arrive in Forest Ridge, work timed shifts, rent or buy a home, and run a firm.

WORLD is the in-game currency. It is entertainment software — not a job, not a bank, and not an investment. Only the official account balance counts.

• Name, portrait and bio live on your profile. Choose a studio portrait or upload a photo.
• Level and skills rise as you finish shifts and daily goals.
• Energy is spent on work and night jobs. Sleep, food and a decent home restore it.
• Reputation changes how the city treats you. Jail is a game timer, not a real holding cell.

The map holds Forest Ridge, New Avalon, Metro, Harbor and the Valley. Each city has its own work, housing and night. You start in Forest Ridge. Travel when your life can support the next place.

Jobs run on a clock. You start a shift, wait (or play a short minigame), and WORLD is paid into your pocket after tax. Daily caps keep grinding from flooding the economy.

Completing a shift is not employment and not a wage in legal tender.

Life is the sim layer: energy, food, living standard, events. A home — leased or owned — raises how fast energy returns. Shop items cover meals and small comforts. Without a roof, work is harder and nights are riskier.

• Lease a room or buy a building. Set rent on units you own.
• Buy a firm. It earns and spends on a cycle. Net WORLD hits your pocket.
• The bank holds WORLD at in-game interest. Loans use bank WORLD as collateral. This is a game bank, not a licensed lender.

You can buy WORLD with Bitcoin, Ethereum or Solana. Open a ticket, send the exact amount to the published house wallet, wait for confirmations. WORLD is then added to your pocket.

That purchase is one-way. WORLD cannot be withdrawn, redeemed, or paid out to a live-network wallet. Wrong network, wrong amount, or tokens sent as ERC-20/SPL may be unrecoverable. Read the Terms and the Earnings Disclaimer before you send anything.

The offers page lists surveys and partner tasks. Partner payment stays with the house. You receive a smaller WORLD rebate inside the game, under a daily cap. That rebate cannot be cashed.

Night jobs are optional crime loops with a chance of being caught. They are fiction. Getting caught is a game penalty, not a real charge. Skip them if you want a clean file.

WORLD the currency is an in-game balance. It is not a crypto token on Bitcoin, Ethereum or Solana today, not electronic money, and not a security.

A future WORLD token — so the game could one day pay out in crypto — is under study. Crypto that comes into the cashier is used to fund that work. Until a token exists and this page says so, nothing in WORLD is withdrawable. See Plans for the current wording.
