2004 Sandbox

It’s 2004. Flip phones snap shut. CDs skip in cheap stereos. Message boards stay alive until sunrise. Malls are packed on Friday nights. Reality TV is exploding, tabloids are ruthless, and everyone seems to have an opinion about what’s cool. There is no predetermined adventure here. Live anywhere in a sprawling fictional world inspired by the early 2000s. Go to school, find work, start a band, chase professional sports, become famous, fall in love, get arrested, build a business, waste your summer at the mall, or simply try to figure out what you’re doing with your life. The world keeps moving whether you’re ready or not. Welcome to 2004.
