More about this game
In City Life: Rise to the Top, you navigate a side-scrolling city to build your fortune. You start with $120 and must manage your hunger and energy bars while working cleaning and delivery shifts.

As you earn cash, you can buy properties like the Parkside Loft or Corner Market to increase your total wealth and boost your payouts. If you run out of energy or hunger, you cannot work until you recover.
