Run Tings

Run Tings is a free game set in the real Caribbean. Live an ordinary life on the island, or take over the government and run the whole country.

Live it. Pick who you are: a farmer, a graduate, a returning migrant, a hustler or someone well connected. You get five moves a month to find work, pay the bills, save, study or start a business. Prices come from each country's real costs. Storms, debt and elections happen whether you're ready or not.

Get your papers. Permits with QR codes, a health record, certificates, a passport and boarding passes. Do your errands the old way, in the queue, or online, and see the time and money you saved.

Stay sharp. Fake loan apps, "you won" messages and phishing bank links land on your phone. Spot them and earn your Scam spotter badge.

Run it. Set the budget, manage a cabinet whose ministers push back, open the books or risk a scandal, answer crises and face the voters. Every season the island elects a new cabinet, and you can stand for office.

Hang out. Dominoes at the rum shop, a fete at the club, cricket in the park, festivals with a steel pan rhythm game. Start a crew with your friends, chat, and climb the boards together. Every country has its own island radio.

All 15 CARICOM countries: Antigua and Barbuda, The Bahamas, Barbados, Belize, Dominica, Grenada, Guyana, Haiti, Jamaica, Montserrat, Saint Kitts and Nevis, Saint Lucia, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, Suriname, and Trinidad and Tobago. The countries are real; the people and parties are fictional.

In English, French, Spanish, Dutch and Haitian Creole. Practise solo here with no account, or join the live island at runtings.me to play alongside everyone else. Made in the Caribbean.
