Trash Tycoon• Trash Tycoon was an upcycling
social network game
developed by Guerillapps in
2011. The game applies
traditional social gameplay
features with the issues of
waste, water, and green.
Trash Tycoon• Gameplay includes cleaning
a town overrun by trash,
recycling, and constructing
products and decorations
out of recycled material.
Trash Tycoon• The game shares a number
of partnerships with real
world companies, including
TerraCycle, Carbonfund.org,
TreeHugger, and Kraft Foods.
Trash Tycoon has been shut
down on July 29, 2012.
Trash Tycoon• In Trash Tycoon, players
collect litter in a city
covered in trash and
upcycle waste into valuable,
environmentally friendly
products.
Trash Tycoon• You can create other items
such as jewelry, toys and
furniture, which you can
either keep for yourself or
sell for profit.
Trash Tycoon• The game's production
processes reflect the aims of
sponsor and partner
TerraCycle, a company that
provides solution programs
for waste that is typically
non-recyclable.
Trash Tycoon• The 21 million people who
participate in TerraCycle’s
recycling programs and
Trash Tycoon earn points for
every piece of waste they
collect and return to a
TerraCycle kiosk.
Trash Tycoon• These points convert to special
bonuses including in-game
money, special decorative
items, or exclusive badges that
allow users to show in-game
friends their Greenness habits
outside of the game.
Trash Tycoon• Trash Tycoon allows players to team
up with neighbors in a multiplayer
environment to collaborate in real-
time and clean up the virtual city.
The game also contains a real time
chat feature. Additionally,
neighbors can help players regain
energy and speed up production.
