System Design Tycoon

About

System Design Tycoon is a learning game that helps you practise system design by building software architectures for real-world client contracts. Start as an aspiring system designer and grow your career by accepting client jobs, reading requirements, choosing architecture components, linking them together, and submitting your design for scoring. Each contract gives you a client request, objectives, budget, difficulty level, and business context. Your job is to design a solution that balances reliability, scalability, security, cost, and simplicity. Build architectures using components such as users, web servers, app servers, databases, caches, queues, storage, APIs, and other system design building blocks. Connect components to show how traffic and data move through your system. As you complete contracts, you earn money and experience, unlock harder work, improve your career level, access training, gain certifications, collect achievements, and climb the leaderboard. System Design Tycoon is designed for learners, developers, students, and anyone who wants to understand how modern systems are designed in a practical and visual way. Key features: • Learn system design through gameplay • Read client contract emails • Build architecture diagrams • Link components together • Submit designs and receive scores • Balance cost, reliability, scalability, and security • Unlock career progress, training, and certifications • Earn achievements and compare progress on the leaderboard • Use the built-in How to Play guide to get started quickly Whether you are preparing for interviews, learning backend architecture, or exploring how digital products are built, System Design Tycoon gives you a hands-on way to practise system design decisions.
