15+ and fans of life simulation games.
By the Day marker in the HUD letting the player know how many “in-game” days they have played and the icon that indicates how many days they have achieved balance. The game has a difficulty progression, which can make a player lose as player feedback that they were not successful.
There is a lose condition to inform the player that they aren’t meeting the learning objective, and no win condition intentionally to motivate the player to navigate the harder difficulties that await in the game as it progresses. With no win condition, this has a quick gameplay cycle with the intention of people to attempt to outrank each other in a “leaderboard” type of competitiveness.
