Block’hood – Vertical city simulator with focus on ecology, decay and coexistence

Category Members Unity People , Posted on:

Created by a small team of architects turned game designers (Jose Sanchez & Gentaro Makinoda), Block’hood is a vertical city simulator with emphasis on ecology and decay. As a player, you take control of a neighborhood and develop your community within limited space. The challenge is provided by the requirements of the blocks you create, forcing you to satisfy the need of resources.

The mechanics of Block’hood are simple and intuitive, but with great depth, allowing players to truly design diverse neighborhoods within the engine. The team believes that games like Block’hood can be used to design the cities of the future, having a close correlation with the real world and the issues we continue to face.
