ContractVille

ContractVille is an open-world construction and renovation game set in Creek Harbour. Starting with almost no money in Port Town, you take neighborhood jobs to earn an income and can build a business with up to four members. You can also play solo and hire workers.

Take on jobs

You can accept mail missions as they appear on your tablet, or choose contract missions in four categories: Demolish, Decorate, Logistic and Build. Jobs can involve clearing trash and broken furniture from ruins, renovating outdated homes, or completing construction projects. You can also take on other work around town, including driving a taxi, delivering cargo, recycling garbage and completing tasks through the Go Green app.

The Go Green app offers rewards for planting trees, plants and seeds, putting up eco-friendly posters, raising awareness of nature protection, advertising vehicles, rescuing animals trapped in trash, cleaning the forest, confronting vandals and building a water mill to clean the river. Cargo deliveries take boxes from warehouses to designated locations, and some boxes may be fragile. As a taxi driver, you take passengers to their destinations; you can also call a taxi to travel as a passenger.

Build and renovate

Buy a ruin or take a contract, then work on plots of different sizes. Clear the land and plan a house to suit it, deciding how many floors to build and arranging the walls, windows, exterior and interior doors, and rooms. You choose each room’s size and purpose, such as a bedroom, kitchen or living room.

Construction covers digging soil, preparing cement, adding reinforcement, laying bricks and tiles, plastering, painting and fitting floors. You can customize wall colors and floor-tile patterns, as well as features such as the roof, balcony, porch and garden. Once a project is complete, furnish and decorate it to your taste or put it up for auction.

Decorate and earn

Hundreds of furniture and decoration items are available for different rooms, and you can customize details on almost every piece of furniture. Decorations earn design points that can bring in extra money. Items removed from homes during decoration contracts can be sold at the Pawn Shop.

Grow your business

After earning some money, you can buy an office and purchase upgrades to expand your company. Develop the site from an almost empty plot into a business center with facilities including wind turbines, a warehouse, a garage, a basketball court, a cafeteria and a pool.

You can also buy the Worker Cabins office upgrade to form a construction crew. Pay workers daily wages and give them commands for missions. As you gain experience, you earn skill points to specialize in different skills or tools; colleagues can focus on different areas, such as demolition or technical work.

Vehicles and co-op

The city’s three car galleries offer dozens of vehicles to explore and buy, including electric vehicles, sports cars and high-capacity models. With friends, you can also use emotes and jokes, slap a friend, honk at them or throw a whoopie cushion.
