China, 2029. Industrial automation is accelerating while households save, property weakness erodes local revenue, the population contracts, and external controls target the technologies expected to carry the next growth model. Doom Loop: China is a political-economic strategy game about governing the difficult transition from investment and export-led scale toward household security, productive automation, and sustainable provincial finance. Every six months, choose national programmes, start multi-turn transition projects, and follow their consequences across eight distinct provincial systems. Coastal technology hubs, old industrial provinces, inland growth corridors, lower-tier cities, migrant households, and ageing counties do not experience the same policy in the same way. FEATURES • Play twenty six-month turns from 2029 through 2038 • Manage eight provincial systems with distinct industries, fiscal exposure, trust, and implementation strain • Choose twelve major programmes covering worker security, consumption, property completion, local debt, technology, trade, algorithms, and demographics • Build six multi-turn national projects with prerequisites and only two delivery slots • Track research, regulation, industrial deployment, and social readiness • Manage hidden-liability recognition, household confidence, employment, national coordination, and external standing • Watch automation lose productivity and create extra displacement when capability outruns social or institutional readiness • Face dynamic consequences from the United States, Europe, emerging-market partners, capital markets, and commodity exporters • Reach one of four national outcomes in 2038 • Play entirely offline with no account, advertising, subscription, or in-app purchase Can China turn industrial capability into household security before local balance sheets, demographics, and external pressure close the window? Doom Loop: China is a fictional strategy simulation. It is not a prediction, political endorsement, or source of professional advice.
