Grow your settlement into a thriving metropolis. Reinvest resources into new buildings and districts. Keep people happy for quicker progression.

Found a settlement. Watch it become a city.

Bitty City is a browser based city simulator that starts small: a handful of settlers, a trading post, and a few farms. Everything after that is earned, not handed to you.

Follow any citizen through their day. Watch them walk to work, take a break at the park, or catch a ride when the commute gets long. Click into a building and its walls turn invisible so you can see exactly who's inside and what they're doing.

Grow your settlement by farming and trading, then spend what you earn on new buildings. Research technology to boost your yields, though better yields tend to create waste you'll need to manage. Keep your people fed, happy, and healthy, since a thriving settlement grows faster on its own, no micromanagement required.

Get your population high enough and whole new districts unlock: Downtown, Old Town, the Harbor, a livestock driven Stockyards, and more, each with its own buildings, jobs, and daily rhythms. What started as a few cottages around a trading post can grow into a sprawling city of thousands.

Everything along the way gets written into your city's journal: a natural language record of foundings, first harvests, new technology, and the milestones your settlement hits. Written a little differently every time, so no two playthroughs read quite the same.

Features

  • Start with a handful of settlers and grow into a huge, thousands strong city
  • Follow individual citizens through their daily schedules, on foot, by car, or by express transit for the long commutes a big city eventually needs
  • A living economy: farm and trade for food and coin, then spend both to grow
  • A short technology tree trading resources for better yields, at the cost of waste you'll have to keep in check
  • New districts unlock as your population grows, each with its own look, buildings, and jobs
  • Evacuate, demolish, or rebuild any building just by clicking its name
  • A journal that tells your settlement's story in natural language, not a log file
  • Forgiving by design: mismanagement slows you down, it never ends your game
  • Runs entirely in your browser. No install, no account, just open it and play

Found your settlement, follow the tutorial for the basics, and build outward at your own pace. How big can your city get?
