About Project Highrise

Project Highrise poster

Project Highrise casts you as both architect and developer, tasked with raising skyscrapers grand enough to make the whole city jealous. But a tower is never just steel and glass. It is a living ecosystem of residents and workers, a complicated machine that only runs smoothly under your careful management. From the day you break ground, every choice belongs to you: routing wiring and walls, laying out offices and apartments, and coordinating construction down to the smallest detail.

This simulation and strategy game asks you to wear several hats at once. As the owner you keep tenants content and their rent flowing, and as a shrewd developer you watch the balance sheet and reinvest for growth. Handle it all well and your building becomes a coveted address that everyone fights to occupy. Slip up and watch tenants storm out, dragging your reputation down with them.

The personality of your PC skyline is entirely up to you. You might chase an elite office tower packed with global executives, sculpt luxury sky penthouses for the rich and famous, or let ambition win and cram in a profit-hungry tenement that squeezes cash from unhappy residents. Every path is open, and success rests squarely on your decisions.
