Description

If you had to design a new social contract for society, not knowing the gender, intelligence, or social status, you'd be born into, then how would you do it? That's the thought experiment behind this game, known as The Veil of Ignorance, and made famous by the late political philosopher John Rawls.

You choose what type of world you are born into but get no say in your family's social status, your attractiveness, or even your gender. Will you design a world where the most capable are free to reap the full rewards of their natural gifts or will you make a world where everyone is equal? And once in that world, will you focus on dating or self-improvement.

Part dating sim, part Darwinian experiment, all addictive!! Download now!

Great but crashes

The crashes have become sorta overpowering...kinda not fun to play when you know that it will crash on year 99 or whatever

amazing concept

this game really has a TONS of potential, especially exploring how each social structure affect life. i will give 5 star to encourage developer. however, i do think it is incomplete at its current stage

Great conceptual app but needs improvements

I rate it 5 stars because I love the concept and it made me question my beliefs. App needs to be debugged and new elements of life need to be added though
