Reading the map

Land is a map of a fictional country similar to Japan. You can buy land and put up buildings, and build roads and railways.

How to open

• Press “🌐 World” in the top bar (on phones, only the globe icon shows).
• You can also open it from “Business” → “Land”.

How to move around

• Use 2 fingers to zoom in and out, and drag to move.
• Press “🏢 2.5D” at the top to switch to “🏢 2D” (a straight top-down view).
• With “🗻 3D”, you can see it in 3D from an angle (3D and city walks).
• At night, the map gets dark too. In 2D or 2.5D, press “🕒 By the clock” to switch to “☀ Day mode”, which is always daytime.

What tapping shows

• Tap a plot to see its address, elevation, zoning, population density, land price, and owner.
• The closer you zoom in, the more detailed the borders and names of prefectures, cities and towns, and neighborhoods become.
• At a medium zoom, map symbols appear (such as “文” for schools and “〒” for post offices).
• Zoom in on a building to see its shape and height, and closer still to see its name and number of floors.

Good to know

• Choose whose name to buy or build in at the top left of the map (yourself or your company).
• Other people's construction shows up on the map every 15 seconds.
• Use “⛰ Elevation” at the top of the map to see elevation by color. The northwest is mountains, and the southeast is sea.
