While working on Chromopolis and discussing it with potential test players, one realizes that it's not that easy to explain to somebody not closely involved what the game is all about.
You can bring across the concept of an online strategy game somehow, but people don't have a real idea of what's happening until they have seen it in the browser for themselves. But until now, the game was just for the beta testers, others weren't able to take a look.
That's why we created Demo City. Eight Gang Lord struggling for dominance of the city (now down to seven... er... six...), and anyone can be one of them for a while. You don't have to sign up for constant playing, you don't have to register with the site (everything is pre-configured), you can just drop in, look around, take a few clicks and leave again. You could even play against yourself if it's quiet enough on the server.
Demo City is not set apart from the other games as some sort of showcase. Whenever the live games get updated with a new version, it is also applied to Demo City. So you might encounter some small errors here from time to time - as the game is tested in parallel -, but that's the price of being part of a creation like this...
Choose any of the players listed as "Open" below, the others aren't really fun, they've finished the phase already. If all entries read "Finished", check back later for the next phase. Demo City tries to sync 6 times a day.
