Loop Effect

Loop Effect is a story-driven decision-making simulation game set in a world on the brink of collapse. As the mayor of a dying city in the far future, you are given one final chance: travel back in time and reshape the fate of the world over the course of three critical days.

Every action you take affects four core values of society:

• Environment – Air, water, and survival
• Economy – Money, infrastructure, and industry
• Security – Order, law, and control
• Happiness – Hope, freedom, and public morale

Your smallest choices can trigger massive consequences through the Butterfly Effect. A single decision that seems insignificant today may lead to catastrophe—or salvation—tomorrow.

🎮 Gameplay Overview

• The game progresses through Day 1 to Day 3, each filled with intense moral dilemmas.
• You interact with NPCs, investigate objects, and make critical choices under limited time.
• Each choice directly shifts the core values of the world.
• If any value drops too low, the city may collapse prematurely.
• Multiple endings await based on how you shape the balance of the world.

There is no single “correct” ending—only the result of your accumulated decisions.
