Graft
Deliveries, the corner shop, the barber's chair. Work shifts, handle what comes up, get promoted. Or open a business of your own and hire people.
Grindtown
A city life you live with everyone else. Start with whatever hand life deals you and graft, hustle or take the risky route to the top, in London, Manchester, New York, Chicago or Atlanta.
Live
Eat, sleep, shower, chill. Your needs run down all day. Everyone in the same place shares the room and the chat.
Hustle
The street pays faster than any job. Stash houses, runners, fraud. The police remember, and one big bust can take everything crime ever touched.
Move
Bus, cab and train on real streets. Fly London to New York in real time, economy or first. Customs might look in your bag.

How it starts
- 1Make your character
Your look, down to the hair: 360 waves, locs, cornrows, box braids, Bantu knots, a silk press and more.
- 2See what you're dealt
Mum's sofa or a flat of your own, a bit of money or none. You play the hand you're dealt.
- 3Your first day
Find a job, work a shift, eat, get about. Each one pays a little the first time.
