Career Simulator

Grow up, pick a degree, build skills and climb the career ladder in 18 countries. Learn the ropes in Simplified, or chase the best score in Real Life.

Career Simulator is a life-and-career game where every year is a choice. Start as a kid, pick a country, and decide how to spend each year: study, train, play sports, take on projects, go to events, apply for jobs, or start a business. Build skills, earn degrees, climb the ladder, and see how your choices add up by the time you retire.

TWO WAYS TO PLAY • Simplified: a gentle tutorial for ages 7 and up. Pick a degree, gain experience and climb from junior to senior until you reach the top. No hiring odds, no tuition bills and no score. • Real Life: the full simulation for teens and up. Hiring is a roll of the dice weighed by your skills, fame, network, school prestige and the job market. Pay living costs, save, borrow for tuition, and ride out recessions and layoffs. Your score is your net worth divided by your age when your career ends at 65.

WHAT YOU CAN DO • Study: from primary school to doctorates, with each country's own school names, grades and tuition • Build skills: soft skills from sports, arts, study and events; hard skills from certifications, licences and a portfolio • Work: more than 140 careers, most of them ladders from entry level to the top of the field, from health and technology to the arts, sport, the trades and public service • Earn a name: win competitions, ship projects and take the stage at events to build a reputation that opens doors • Start a business: launch ventures, take the founder's gamble and make boardroom decisions once you reach the top • Ask the Career Advisor: plain-spoken advice on what to do next and how likely it is to work. On devices with Apple Intelligence you can also chat with it, and it runs entirely on your device.

PLAY IN 18 COUNTRIES Choose the United States, Australia, Brazil, Canada, China, France, Germany, India, Italy, Japan, Mexico, Poland, South Korea, Spain, Sweden, Turkey, Ukraine or the United Kingdom. Pay, tuition, living costs, school systems and money follow the country you pick, so a career in Berlin plays differently from one in Seoul.

COMPETE ON GAME CENTER Every Real Life run is scored by how early you build wealth, and every country has its own Game Center leaderboard.
