The game includes two primary modes: the character creator and the build mode.
The character creator lets you shape your digital avatars. You use sliders to change facial features, height, and body shape. You choose colors for clothing and hair using the color wheel. Save your creations to the library so you can place them into your neighborhood later.
Build mode provides tools to construct houses. You drag walls to create rooms of any size. Resize windows and doors by pulling the edges with your mouse. Use the furniture catalog to drop items into your rooms. You can rotate objects in any direction to fit your design vision.
This release targets Windows 11 and Windows 10 systems. We do not provide official support for other platforms at this time.

Life simulations require significant processing power as your world grows in detail. If the game feels slow, try these adjustments:
- Lower the visual quality settings in the Options menu.
- Close other demanding applications like web browsers or video editors while playing.
- Ensure your computer sits in a well-ventilated area to prevent thermal throttling.
- Check for Windows updates periodically to keep your system drivers current.
