Is there a game where you can live in Berlin?

Berlin life simulator

Yes. LifeSim puts you in the real Berlin, on a 3D map of the real streets. You make a character and live in the city one day at a time. The people there have jobs, homes, and plans, and they remember you. It is free and runs in the browser.

Life in Berlin

Berlin is the capital of Germany and a city of districts, each with its own center. People ride the U-Bahn, the S-Bahn, and bikes, and most of them rent. A life here can be a start-up founder, an artist, or a civil servant.

How it works

  1. Describe your character in one text box. Name Berlin in the text.
  2. The game reads the city from your text and puts you in the real Berlin, on a 3D map.
  3. Live day by day. Go to real places, meet people, and talk to them in your own words.

Questions

Is LifeSim in German?

No. The game is in English only. The map keeps the German street and place names, and you talk to people in English.

Can I see the Brandenburg Gate in LifeSim?

Yes. The map is the real Berlin in 3D. Search for the Brandenburg Gate or any place by name, and go there.

Can I build my own place in Berlin?

Yes, on a computer. Build mode lets you draw a building. The game turns it into a 3D model, and you place it in your city.
