How to use the map
The game splits Lagos into two halves, just like the real city. The mainland (Ikeja, Yaba and Surulere) is where life is cheaper: food, hair, football, the hospital and the university. The Island (Lagos Island, Ikoyi, Victoria Island and Lekki) is where the markets, offices, clubs and beaches are, and where prices climb fast. Tap an area on the map above to jump to its places, or use the guide below to find a place by what you need.
Every place has opening hours, so plan around them. Turning up at Quilox at noon or Balogun Market at 9 PM gets you nothing but a wasted trip.
