The game recasts condominium management as a TRPG-like political struggle, where the player's weekly actions as a board director determine whether to dominate residents or push reform, with multiple endings tied to that choice.

Toydium announced RULES OF RESIDENCE, a political simulation for PC set in a condominium ruled by a dictatorial chairman. Players act as a director of the management association, able to act once a week, balancing resources to either abuse power or cooperate with residents to reform rules. Release is planned for 2027, with a playable build at Tokyo Game Show 2026.
The announcement came on September 7. Toydium will show the game at Tokyo Game Show 2026, held September 17 to 21.
RULES OF RESIDENCE gives the player a single action per week as a director on the condominium's management board. The board holds real authority: it can flog disliked residents or collect money for private reasons, but each abuse raises dissatisfaction and damages the protagonist's reputation. The alternative is cooperation, rewriting the condo's rules one by one and recruiting allies among the residents.
Resources like information, funds, and residents must be managed within those tight action limits. The developer describes the structure as TRPG-like. Player choices shift the condominium's fate toward multiple endings.
