Grow three families into a country.

bigworldz is a strategy game that never pauses. What your people spend their days on decides what they learn, and a day on the island lasts one real minute.

Watch this one go by.

Each level holds the one before it.

You start with a family named after you and two neighbours, each around its own fire. Evenings at a shared fire build the trust to found a tribe, and from there it nests outward.

  1. Family

    Where everyone starts: a man, a woman, their children.

  2. Tribe

    Founded with Common Cause.

  3. Village

    Founded with Kinship.

  4. Country

    Founded with Commonwealth.

  5. Alliance

    Founded with Stewardship.

A day in one minute.

Everyone keeps the same rhythm, so a game year takes about six real hours. Set what your people do, then come back to see what they made of it.

Daylight, 30 seconds

Work earns goods and knowledge.

Evening, 10

Around the fire, Camaraderie.

Night, 20

Sleep. Nothing is earned.
