Game Description

Retroronto is a life simulator set in a pixel-art reimagining of downtown Toronto in the mid-2000s. As a newcomer to the city, you'll need to find your footing, make a living, and build a life of your own.

Balance your time, money, and everyday needs as you explore the city. Find work to pay rent, shop for groceries and household supplies, cook meals, do laundry, maintain your home, and meet the residents who make Toronto what it is. How you spend your days is up to you, but there's always something that needs doing.

At its heart, Retroronto is a love letter to Toronto: its neighbourhoods, its everyday routines, and the joys and challenges of urban life. Drawing inspiration from life simulators and retro games set in contemporary worlds, Retroronto combines pixel-art city exploration with the day-to-day decisions of living in a big city.
