In the urban planning simulator Block‘hood, players take on the role of city planners. By combining different architectural modules, they can experiment with the design of sustainable city districts.

In the process, they have to make sure that the urban system remains in balance. The game focuses on aspects such as sustainability, environmental impact, resource consumption and socio-economic factors, rather than on profit maximization. Players are supposed to develop an awareness of the challenges that contemporary architec-ture faces in terms of sustainable urban planning. In addi-tion, Block‘hood puts up for discussion how citizens could be involved in urban development in the future.
