Questions
Is NYSC World free?
Yes. It's free to play in any modern browser on a phone, tablet or computer. There's nothing to download.
Is this the real NYSC?
No. NYSC World is a fictional game inspired by Nigerian life. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by the NYSC or any government body.
Can I win or cash out real money?
No. Naira in the game is in-game money only. You can't buy it with real money or exchange it for real money.
Do I need an account?
You can look around as a guest first. An account keeps your corper safe and lets you play on any phone or laptop, and two secret questions let you reset a forgotten password.
Do I play with other people?
Yes. Everyone shares the same camp and the same Lagos. You can chat, make friends, start groups, host events and send voice notes.
What happens after camp?
You pass out, open your posting letter and report to your place of primary assignment. Then you build a life in Lagos: find a home, take on hustles, get around by danfo, keke, okada or GidiRide, and spend time with friends.
