Mayor Quake is a document inspection and decision making game where you play as a mayor preparing a city for an impending earthquake.
In 1928, a catastrophic earthquake reduced Constanbul to rubble. Tens of thousands perished, and families were torn apart. For decades, the city carried a wound that never fully healed. People called it The City of Orphans.
Time passed. The tragedy faded from memory.
It is now 2026. The fault line beneath Constanbul has been silent for far too long. Scientists warn that this silence is not a sign of safety. It is a warning. Decades of neglect have left the city dangerously unprepared.
You are the rising voice of the Orphans Movement, those who never forgot what was lost. Against all odds, you have just won the mayoral election by the narrowest of margins.
The central government is not taking it well.
As political pressure grows and the public loses faith, your mission is clear: prepare the city for the coming earthquake before it is too late. But nothing about this will be easy.
WHAT WILL YOU DO IN MAYOR QUAKE?
Inspect building documents according to regulations
Approve compliant buildings and send them into urban transformation

Prepare the city for the coming earthquake
Choose your path and remain an idealist mayor or engage in corruption
Every decision has consequences. Your choices will lead to different outcomes and multiple possible endings.
You do not know when the earthquake will happen. But you know it will.
Will you be able to prepare the city in time?
