The Bay Area is facing a housing affordability crisis that’s only growing more desperate. It seems as if there’s no end to the death spiral of soaring rents, deepening congestion, and rising displacement. Until now, that is!

The “Bay Area Regional Planner” game lets you and two to 12 friends demonstrate that, with thoughtful planning, regionally focused zoning, and a little bit of pluck, the housing crisis can be fixed. And solving it can be very stimulating!
