Housing Simulator 2023 is interactive literature simulating the experience of trying to find a place to live in Australia in 2023. 

It is best enjoyed in full screen on a laptop/desktop. (If playing on a mobile device, Google Chrome in landscape seems to work best.)

Housing Simulator 2023 was commissioned for The Suburban Review (January 2024) and was created in Twine with the support of The Lord Mayor’s Young and Emerging Artists Fellowships, an initiative of Brisbane City Council.

Hey, I noticed that the "take agents offer" popup is black in my script, as is the okay/no font!
I temporarily selected everything in the box and could see my options, but maybe you want to fix that?

Thank you so much for letting me know!! I'll get that fixed up.
