New city. New life. No idea what’s coming.
You move to New York City with no plan and no idea what comes next. You’re starting from scratch, trying to find an apartment, get a job, make friends, explore the city, go to parties, fall in love, and build a life of your own. Every day brings new people, new opportunities, and new problems. Your choices shape who you become and where your story takes you.
001 - EMMA RIVERA, THE NEIGHBOR Emma is your next-door neighbor and the first person you really get to know in the building. She’s friendly, curious, and slightly nosy, the type to knock on your door because she “just happened to be passing by” and somehow stay for two hours. She knows the best takeout spots, the loudest apartments, and most of the building gossip. She has shoulder-length dark brown hair, warm brown eyes, and an effortless NYC style, usually wearing oversized sweaters, skinny jeans, boots, and gold jewelry.
002 - FRANK DONOVAN, THE DOORMAN Frank is the building’s longtime doorman and one of those people who somehow knows everyone. He helped you carry your boxes upstairs on your first day and immediately made you feel less like a stranger. He’s warm, observant, sarcastic, and surprisingly funny. He notices everything that happens in the building but rarely shares more than he should. Frank is in his late 50s, with salt-and-pepper hair, a neatly trimmed mustache, and a permanently polished uniform.
003 - LILY BENNETT, THE CHILDHOOD FRIEND Lily has lived in New York for years and becomes your personal introduction to the city. She’s outgoing, spontaneous, confident, and always dragging you somewhere you’ve never been. She knows the best parties, restaurants, clubs, and hidden spots downtown. Lily has long blonde hair, hazel eyes, and a trendy early-2010s wardrobe filled with leather jackets, floral dresses, boots, and statement jewelry. She makes everything feel like an adventure.
004 - JAKE MILLER, THE ROOMMATE Jake is your new roommate, and living together is going to be an experience. He’s laid-back, sarcastic, messy, and constantly coming home with some ridiculous story. He’ll steal your food, borrow your clothes without asking, and leave his shoes in the middle of the apartment, but he’s incredibly loyal when it counts. Jake has messy dark hair, brown eyes, and an effortlessly casual style, usually wearing graphic tees, jeans, sneakers, and a leather jacket. But if it comes to formal wear, the man could look amazing in any type of formal outfit.

Welcome to New York City.
It’s 2012, and you’ve just arrived in the city with two suitcases, a new apartment, and absolutely no idea what you’re doing.
You’re starting over from scratch. New people, a new job, new friendships, late nights, crowded parties, unexpected romances, and all the chaos that comes with trying to make it in New York.
Maybe you’ll find the life you came here looking for. Maybe you’ll become someone completely different.
Either way, the city is waiting.
And your story starts now.
