DATA CENTRE SLUMLORD

*A Geriatric Games Corporate Mismanagement RPG*

Build the cloud. Drain the town. Blame the contractor. Survive the quarter.

You are the newly appointed CEO of Geriatric Grid Holdings, a hyperscale AI infrastructure company with unlimited ambition, limited ethics, and several urgently worded emails from the water authority.

Build data centres across a live world map. Chase compute. Court investors. Keep the lights on. Try not to destroy too many communities before your market cap reaches escape velocity.

But every new server campus needs land, water, power, permits, workers, and somewhere politically vulnerable to put the cooling towers.

Your board is not helping.

Elon wants a private power grid. Jeff has found “underused” public land. Mark has located another aquifer. Satya wants to “support” your independence by acquiring it. Sam has promised investors a breakthrough that requires several more power stations. Alex has paperwork that should not exist. Larry wants cameras everywhere. Sundar wants to rebrand the drought.

Meanwhile, citizens are protesting, engineers are unionising, regulators are issuing fines, floods are hitting transformers, the grid is collapsing, and your CFO has quietly left through the fire exit.

## Features

Build ten profitable data centres. Keep cash above zero. Keep investors convinced. Keep the grid, water table, workforce, and public patience from collapsing.

Or become a cautionary documentary.
