Van City Grind is a game by Astral Minds Digital Inc., made with Shades of YVR. By playing you agree to these terms.
You must be 19 or older to play. If you're not, please don't.
Credits are pretend. They have no cash value, can't be bought with real money, and can't be cashed out. Homes in the game are fictional, even where they use real streets and addresses. Nothing in the game is a real listing, real estate or financial advice, and no real property is for sale or rent.
The map uses OpenStreetMap data. Places are shown for fun. Private businesses appear only with permission or under made-up names. Some sites matter deeply to Indigenous peoples, and we treat them with care.
Players can write notes, messages, a short bio, a display name and street stories. When you do, please:
What you write stays yours, and you give us permission to show it in the game to other players and to remove it if it breaks these rules. Your messages are checked automatically. If you or someone else reports one, a person on our team may read it. Street stories are read by us before they go live. [Content licence wording to be confirmed after legal review.]
If something breaks the rules we may warn you, mute you (you can play but can't write to others), or suspend you. You'll see the reason in the game and you can appeal once per decision from Safety. If you're ever in danger, call 9-1-1, and if you're struggling, call or text 9-8-8 any time in Canada.
You can delete your online account and data in the menu at any time. We may remove accounts that abuse the game. The game is provided as is, and may change or stop. We aren't liable for losses from playing it, to the extent the law allows. [Governing law and any other clauses to be added after legal review.]
