Make a citizen, move in, get a job, open a shop, adopt a pet, and hang out with everyone else who's online. It's all one town, and you're all in it together.
A chess table in your home now plays chess or checkers, a pool table plays 8-ball, and the arcade pieces you've furnished with play their games. Shop owners can buy from their own shops.
The game, your citizen page and the Clubs are now all at vanillacity.me. Play in your browser at vanillacity.me/game.
A gated residential district of houses you can buy: The Cottage, The Craftsman and The Manor. Head up Hill Street, or east along Second Street over the tracks.
Screenshots from the game as it is now, in the browser.
The square in City Central on a sunny morning, with what you see while you play: your level and money at the top left, Tasks and Bag at the top right, the chat at the bottom
On your first day Kassi, the city's Ambassador, shows you around: the shops, City Hall, the Post Office, your new home and the people who work in them. After that, the town is yours.
Your own apartment on Main Street to decorate however you like. Build furniture at Ken's workbench or pick it out in his showroom.
Buy The Cottage, The Craftsman or The Manor from Marjorie, pick its color, and it stands on the street with your name on it.
Chess and checkers at a chess table, 8-ball at a pool table, and arcade cabinets, pinball and darts that play for free.
Shop Vanilla Threads and the Town Center for outfits, hats, glasses and the odd pair of cat ears.
Odd jobs on the Job Board, a bank for your coins, and a storefront of your own: stock it, price it and keep the till.
Earn EXP for almost everything you do, pick up a paycheck while you're in town, and knock out the daily tasks.
Pancakes at the diner, the day's special at the cafe, books, flowers, a fire safety quiz and candles at the church.
Shops, a food court, bowling, mini golf, a carousel, things to ride and the Gag Shop's toys.
Adopt one at Donna's Pet Pause and take it out on walks. Anyone you meet can stop and pet it.
Arcade games and prizes, pool, hoops by the river, and fishing off the pier.
Buy a ticket from Johnny and ride downtown in the diner, the lounge or the sleeper. The whole town hears her whistle.
The sun rises and sets on the real clock, and rain and snow fall when they're really falling. Snow settles; puddles spread.
Talk where you stand, send postcards and gifts through the Post Office, and trade face to face.
The Lounge by the lake, VIP on your card, and a color of your own for your name and your chat.
Collect ribbons, show them off on your card, and get your own page on this site.
