## About the product

Lagos Life is a **browser-based multiplayer life-simulation game** set in **Lagos, Nigeria**, made by **Vatar**, a Nigerian startup. It went viral in 2026, and Vatar raised a **$500,000** angel round at a reported $10 million valuation, backed by Flutterwave's CEO and others (Techloy, WeeTracker).

Key gameplay features include:

- **Everyday Lagos life**: danfo rides, amala spots, nightlife such as Quilox, NEPA power cuts, healthcare and transport
- **A player economy**: businesses, property and sea plots, investments, insurance, taxes and transfers between players, all in fictional **Game Naira** that can't be cashed out
- **Politics and law**: elect a Governor, plus crime, police and a live court for adult players
- **Social play**: public and venue chat, direct messages, profiles, stickers, and live voice rooms for adults
