## What is Worldborn?

You are born. Where, into which family and with what chances is decided by the same odds that decide it for the four or so babies born on Earth every second.

Worldborn is a life simulator built on real statistics. The draw follows UN and World Bank data for 186 countries, so you are far more likely to be born in India or Nigeria than in Iceland. Then you live that one life, year by year, until it ends.

HOW IT WORKS
• Your birth certificate shows where you landed: country and town, family income, your parents, religion, life expectancy and how many children there die before the age of five.
• Every year brings events that fit your country, your age and your family: school or work, friends, first love, a job, moving away, illness, children, old age.
• At turning points you decide: keep studying or start earning, stay or leave, take the risk or play it safe. Your choices matter, and so does where you started.
• Short facts from real data explain why things happen the way they do in your country.
• Follow your health, happiness, knowledge and relationships, your family, the people born in the same second as you, a map of your life year by year, and how many of the 100 people born with you are still alive.
• At 6, 18, 35, 55 and 72 the game pauses to ask you a question about this life and your own. When it ends, you see it whole: the last moments, the money and the heirs, your own answers and last words.
• Every life you have lived stays on your shelf. Reopen any of them, or share it as a picture.
• Watch the years go by at your own pace, up to 64× faster, or stop at every decision. Light and dark themes.

PLAY WITH FRIENDS
• Be born in the same second as your friends and compare how your lives turn out, stage by stage.
• Pass one phone around the table, or play online with a room code.
• Share your birth certificate or your life story, and let friends live the same birth their own way.

MADE WITH CARE
• Death, illness, poverty, violence and alcohol come up as often as they do in real life, but never in graphic detail. One setting leaves out the hardest scenes.
• A life takes about 15, 30 or 60 minutes, your choice. The game saves as you go.
• 31 languages, including English, Spanish, Portuguese, French, German, Russian, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Arabic, Hindi and Indonesian.
• Free, with no ads, no accounts and no in-app purchases. Your lives are saved on your device, and online rooms are deleted 48 hours after last use.

The lives are made up. The odds are not.
