## What is Apex City?

Build a city that actually works, then walk down its streets.

Apex City is a city builder with a real simulation underneath. Every home has residents who need power, water, schools and a safe street. Lay roads, zone districts, build utilities and services, and watch traffic, blackouts and crime emerge from your layout rather than from random events. Fix the water shortage you created, then redesign the district that caused it.

WHAT YOU DO
- Zone residential, commercial and industrial districts and watch them grow in density.
- Run power, water and waste collection. Brownouts and jams are outcomes of your plan, not luck.
- Build schools, clinics, fire and police stations, and keep your citizens happy.
- Collect production and taxes in two-minute check-ins, or sit down for a thirty-minute redesign.

GET OUT OF CITY HALL
- Take a Walk: leave the map behind and walk your own streets in third person, at night, in the rain.
- Hail a taxi and ride across the city you planned, watching it work from the back seat.
- Drive it yourself, or stop and talk to the people who live there.
- The city is heard as well as seen: traffic, places and weather come from the direction they happen.

TRANSPORT IS THE ENDGAME
- Open an airport, a seaport and a rail network. Add bus and metro lines and a trucking fleet.
- Feed sawmills, refineries and factories into cargo routes and passenger lines.
- Sign logistics contracts and ship goods to other mayors on player-to-player routes.
- From level 8 onward, moving goods and people becomes the heart of your economy.

PLAY TOGETHER
- Visit other mayors, send gifts and help with timers.
- Join an alliance of up to 50 players and compete in weekly events and seasons.
- Leaderboards reward cooperation. There is no sabotage and no raiding.

FAIR BY DESIGN
- Every building, service and transport line your city needs is earnable by playing. Purchases are optional and never required to progress.
- Optional extras such as Taxi Ride and the Mayor's luxury car, home and jet are sold separately. Gems skip timers and pay for cosmetics and extras. There are no loot boxes and no paid random items.
- No advertising. This release contains no advertising SDK at all.

PLAY OFFLINE
- Play on a plane, on the metro, in a lift, anywhere. Your city keeps running and syncs the moment you reconnect.
- Sign in once with a connection and offline play unlocks. After that the app opens with no signal at all.
- No connection is needed to lay a road, zone a district or collect a shop. The city simulates on your device.

PLAYS THE WAY YOU NEED IT TO
- Night brightness is yours to set, and your city stays readable after dark at every setting.
- Weather has its own control. Keep the rain and fog, or clear your view while the sky still changes.
- Reduced Motion is honoured from the first launch, straight from your device's accessibility settings.
- Five separate volume sliders, a quieter audio mode, and a graphics panel that says what each option costs.
- English and Arabic, with full right-to-left layout.
