Everything to expect from Abuja Life.

Abuja Life is a multiplayer life sim set on the real map of Abuja. You make a character, pick a hustle, find somewhere to stay, and live a second Abuja life alongside everybody else who is online.

The basics

• Opens 20 October 2026. Everyone on the waitlist gets an email the moment the gates open.
• Plays in your browser, on your phone or your laptop. Nothing to download.
• Free to play. You can play without spending a kobo.
• The demo on the home page is a small taste: one player, the real map, stand-in voices. The game itself is everybody at once.

Talking is how people meet in Abuja Life. Your character has a voice, and it's yours.

How it works

• Your mic reaches the people near you and nobody else. Stand at the bar and the bar hears you. The street outside does not.
• Volume follows distance. Walk closer and you get louder. Walk away and you fade out.
• Places have sound too. You hear a club's DJ from the street before you get to the door, and it gets louder with every step.
• You're in control. Mute yourself, mute one person, or switch voice off completely.

Try it now Demo

In the demo, walk up to people and they talk. The closer you stand, the louder they are. Their voices are stand-ins for real players. The mic button shows your own level and nothing is recorded or sent.

Wuse 2 is where Abuja comes out at night, and the clubs stand on the streets where you'd find them in real life.

A night out

• Hear it before you see it. Every club plays its own sound, and it carries into the street.
• Queue at the door, get your table, spray money. Voice does the rest.
• Player DJs play the big rooms. Build a crowd from your crib first (see Go live).
• Venues can be claimed by their real owners, who then run them (see Claim your business).

Eagle Square after midnight. Tune your whip, burn rubber, and pull a crowd.

What's on the road

The cars you actually see in Abuja. Start small, upgrade loud, or just flag down a painted taxi.

Getting around Demo

In the demo, open the map and tap any stop. A green cab takes you there.

Every job has a workplace on the map, skills to level up and a payday in naira. Pick one, or stack two.

• Tech bro. Wuse 2, or anywhere with light. Dollar clients, Abuja rent.
• Makeup artist. Studios in Wuse and Gwarinpa. Bridal glam and owambe faces.
• Civil servant. Federal Secretariat. Climb from Level 8 to Director.
• Contractor. Central Area. Chase the contract, deliver the job, wait for payment.
• Senator's PA. Three Arms Zone. Carry the bag, hold the phone, know everybody who matters.
• DJ. Cage, BBR, Magic City, Oso. From your crib to the big rooms.
• Cab driver. All over town. Know every shortcut.
• Suya master. Wuse 2 by night. The queue is your salary.
• Estate agent. Maitama, Asokoro, Gwarinpa. Close the deal, collect your ten percent.
• Doctor or nurse. National Hospital. Long shifts, real respect.
• Banker. Central Bank and the Central Area. Targets, ties and month-end pressure.
• Fashion designer. Wuse Market, or your own studio. Asoebi season never ends.

More jobs land with the game. Pay differs from job to job: the ₦ marks on the home page show how they compare.

The money in Abuja Life is naira. You earn it by playing and you spend it on your life in the game.

Earning and spending Planned for launch

• Earn from your job, DJ gigs, rent from your tenants, and your business.
• Spend on your home, your car, and your nights out.
• In the demo, the naira you pick up on the street shows the idea. It doesn't carry over to the game.

Crypto Coming soon

• Convert in-game naira to the ABJ token and withdraw it to your own wallet.
• Top up by buying the ABJ token and converting it into in-game naira.

In-game naira is game currency, not legal tender. Token conversion, top-ups and withdrawals are planned features: rates, availability and eligibility will be published before they go live. Earnings depend on how you play and aren't guaranteed. Nothing here is financial advice.

Everybody starts from somewhere. Where you end up is up to you.

• Rent, buy or build. From self-con in Lugbe to a duplex in Maitama.
• Furnish am, flex am. Your place is yours to set up and show off.
• Become the landlord. Own property and collect rent from your tenants.
• Your crib is your base. It's where your car is parked and where you go live from.

You don't need a club to have a crowd. DJ or stream from your own apartment and let people pull up.

• Build your crowd from your room, one stream at a time.
• Book gigs at real venues once people know your name.
• Get paid in naira for the gigs you play.

In the demo, the crib in Gwarinpa is already live. Take a cab there and have a look.

Own a club, restaurant, lounge or shop in Abuja? It gets a twin in the game, and you can claim it before someone else does.

• Verify that you own it and take control of the in-game version.
• Earn rent and revenue from in-game events, tenants and visitors.
• Run promos that bring real customers to your real door.
• Book player DJs and host branded nights.

How to claim

Join the waitlist as a Business owner and tell us the name of your business. We'll contact you to verify ownership before launch.

A city full of real voices needs real controls. They are one tap away, on any player.

• Block. They're gone. They can't see you, hear you, or follow you.
• Mute. Stop hearing one person without leaving the conversation.
• Report. Flag anyone who's out of line.
• Rooms police themselves. Every room has a manager and the moderators they choose.
• Voice is optional. You can switch it off completely.

In the demo, tap any person to mute or block them.

The city in Abuja Life is built from the real street map. The roads are Abuja's roads, Jabi Lake has its real shoreline, and each place stands at its real spot, on its own street.

Good to know

• Buildings and roads are drawn larger than life, so a place sits as close to its real spot as the scale allows, always beside its real road.
• The map in the demo has two views: the city centre and the whole city. Every pin is on the place's real position.

Map data © OpenStreetMap contributors. Venue and place names appear for gameplay flavour: Abuja Life isn't affiliated with or endorsed by any venue mentioned until that venue is claimed by its verified owner.
