Build the place
Design rooms, homes, streets, cafes and tiny worlds exactly how you imagine them.
Create living worlds
Build places, create residents and design interactions to bring the stories you want to tell to life.
VirtualSociety is a creative sandbox game for worldbuilders, storytellers, roleplayers, and players who love making spaces where stories can happen.
In development for PC, Mac, iOS and Android.
Build places, create residents, start stories.
Build more than a place.
In VirtualSociety, a room can become a scene. A cafe can become a meeting place. A street can become a story. You create the world, decide who lives there, and set what can happen.
Create the residents
Create residents with outfits, styles and identities that fit your stories.
Set the story in motion
Add dialogues, choices, interactions and events that make your world react.
What you can create
VirtualSociety gives players accessible tools to create worlds that feel personal, expressive, and alive.
Build places
Design rooms, homes, streets, cafes, schools, villages, strange little worlds, or any place your story needs.
Create residents
Customize residents, outfits, body shapes, styles, and identities to populate your worlds with people who feel right for your stories.
Design interactions
Add dialogues, choices, object interactions, events, and simple story moments to make your world react.
Share your world
Play solo, create with friends, or invite others to explore, roleplay, and tell stories inside your world.
Create places where stories can happen
VirtualSociety is not a traditional life sim and not a competitive game. It is a creative sandbox for players who want to build worlds, populate them with residents, and decide what can happen there.
The mood stays gentle and welcoming, while the focus remains firmly on creative tools: building, customizing, designing interactions, sharing and playing stories together.
A long-running project turned indie studio
VirtualSociety started as Nico's personal project, then became VirtualSociety Online with Jimmy and an early player community.
With our background in computer science and interactive tools, we founded Cats & Foxes to rebuild the game in 3D, deepen the creation tools, and evolve VirtualSociety into a true living-world sandbox.
