# Introduction

Welcome to dCITY. Here you can build your own city on the Hive platform and be the master of your own kingdom.

dCITY will allow players to optimize their cities in terms of buildings, population and income. It is a city simulator game based on Steem-Engine NFT tokens. The NFT tokens represent assets in the game, individual cards are buildings and the total collection of your cards is your city. The aim of the game is to buy new buildings, but also use diplomacy and tact with fellow players to achieve the materials you need to grow and prosper. Obviously there are several ways you can approach this; but we’ll let you learn them on your own and test them out.

This IS a numbers game, but with the added randomness of society. There will be events that can impact you negatively, and there will be events that can impact you positively. The items you have are what dictate whether these events are positive or negative. Choose wisely when helping or refusing to help another player. They might need your help today, but you never know when you might need their help in the future.

# Basic Attributes

Game cards have few basic attributes:

Population: The number of people that live in your city

Income: How much SIM you’re earning each day

Popularity: Bonus to Population, **(popularity^0.7)/100**

Workers: To receive income from buildings, you need to have enough people (Population) to work there

Buildings are filled with workers from lowest card id to highest! On web page you can simulate your city by clicking on buildings on the right side (Green - enough workers, Red - not enough workers, Grey - Off). Then when you have optimized numbers for your city you can send grey building to another account or market to apply changes to your city.
