One summer morning, you wake up in your small home town. In the distance, the rooftops of a sweltering city flash in the light of the sun. You vigorously forge plans for leaving this sleepy place as soon as possible. But there's no escape without money or wheels. Then, out of the blue, an old acquaintance gets in touch. It's Hape, the owner of a small local construction company. He may look tough on the outside, but his heart's in the right place and his guidance helps you quickly break into the building industry. So, it's time to set off for adventures in the world of the self-employed!
It is possible to skip the tutorial by clicking on Skip Tutorial in the job menu, or at the start of the campaign. Skipping individual steps of the campaign is possible from the Active Jobs page under the Jobs menu, but doing so will also have you skip out on any monetary rewards.
