What is DPS City Worker?

A full career simulation where players maintain city infrastructure -- starting as Probationary Laborers and working up to Foremen managing entire grid sectors. Infrastructure decays over time, and neglected sectors trigger rolling blackouts that affect the whole server.

  • Maintenance - Pipe repair, hydrant service, water pump fixes
  • Road - Pothole repair, sign replacement, traffic control setup
  • Electrical - Streetlight repair, electrical boxes, transformer maintenance
  • Cleanup - Graffiti removal, trash pickup, hazmat cleanup
  • Utility - Meter reading routes, cable installation, utility locating
