Sandbox mode in Agency Life: your life, your rules
Updated October 17, 2026
Sometimes you just want to try things out: buy the casino right away, see what happens without police, or live a life where nothing can go wrong. That is what the sandbox mode is for.
Three ways to play
When you start a new life, you choose online, standard or sandbox. Online counts for the leaderboard, standard is the normal game without the leaderboard, and sandbox lets you set your own rules.
What you can set
In the sandbox you decide how fast time runs, how much money you start with, how strict the police are and whether you are invulnerable. You can change everything in the middle of a life, too.
What does not count
In return, nothing counts in the sandbox: no leaderboard, no achievements and no rewards from the daily task or weekly challenges. The tax office does not audit you either if you play without police.
How to unlock it
The sandbox mode is part of the Boss Edition. Read about everything else it includes in the rewards guide.
