6 itemsAbout the Game
Desktropolis is an idle city builder that lives quietly on the bottom of your screen while you work, game, or study.
Grow and manage your city as the mayor entirely from your virtual phone. Build, trade, and hire employees, or slack off, play mini-games, and gamble city funds. 
Specialize and experiment with different building types and classes to create overpowered synergies that maximize your city’s growth and profitability. 
Keep your citizens happy and fortify buildings from disasters that can strike at any moment, or play on peaceful mode without interruptions. 
Spruce up your boring desktop and modify your entire experience with customizable city colors, phone cases and wallpapers, landscapes and more.
Desktropolis is an authentic idle experience that was designed to play entirely at your own pace while never demanding your attention. While the speed of progression varies heavily based on optimization and activity, it's best enjoyed while doing other things. Just build, relax, and watch your tiny city come to life.
