Two Point Campusplayers will be all too aware of managing their funds while running the universities they are in the game, and sometimes a change of pace can be very beneficial for simply enjoying crafting your own ideal university experience for students.

This is where Sandbox Mode comes in with a way of having bundles of cash that you are very unlikely to run out of in specific modes. However, for those who want to deliberately create a brutal difficulty for running campuses, if you feel you are already top-class, Sandbox Mode can assist you in this regard too.

How To Unlock Sandbox Mode

Sandbox Mode will begreyed out on the main menuwhen you start up the game for the first time. You don’t have tobeat Two Point Campusto unlock the mode. All you need to do isget a one-star campus on Freshleigh Meadows, the first level in the game. This will take you under an hour of gameplay.

To get a one-star campus you will essentially be completing the tutorialfor the game as it walks you through most of the entire process. You will have aone-star campus by the end of year two by completing the objective tasksgiven along the way.

Sandbox Mode Overview

Sandbox Mode gives you all the tools needed to create your most-wanted game experience with Two Point Campus. You canopt to get everything unlocked with (sub) modes such as Creativealongside having what is more cash than you could easily spend,or you can instead focus on creating a very challenging—or normal experience—for yourself.

The choice is always yours in Sandbox Mode.All the game’s maps are automatically unlocked within the mode,so you don’t need to reach them in the main game first. One aspect to pay important attention to, however, is thetotal plot number of the map you choose.

Having more plots means more space for your campusand if you are planning on playing Creative, we recommend you have the highest amount of space possible. The maps with the largest plot number of ten are as follows.

You can have 20 active Sandbox Filesat once before you must delete one.

You can save Sandbox mapsas you do with the main game campuses, andthey will be stored as a Sandbox File once you leave. Meaning you can return to your map at any time you’d like.

All Modes in Sandbox

There are four sub-modes in Sandboxand each of these has different purposes, one of which being a more do-it-yourself approach to the set-up of your campus. All the modes and information about each are listed below.

Information

Standard

The Standard mode does as it says on the tin: you aregiven 75 Course Points including a fair amount of cash, $300,000, and you will unlock university items with Kudosh points and then upgrades with research. The university will expand at a rate you are used to in the main game, sothis is the mode to use when you want a regular experience.

Creative

Creative mode is where the Sandbox truly shines.You receive $100,000,000 cash to start with alongside 25,000 Course Points, so you will struggle to run out of resources. Creating whimsical campuses without the fear of cash drain is always possible in Creative, so you can get your academic brain moving quickly.

Challenge

Challenge modeonly gives you $150,000 cash to start with and 30 Course Points, so efficiency is needed to survive the burdens of Challenge mode successfully. It can betough to keep up without losing tons of profit potential, so keep that in mind before diving headfirst into this one. Plan ahead.

Custom

In this mode, you can create your own rule set for how the campus works. You canadjust settings such as starting cash and Kudosh, monthly allowance, course points, plots, and upgrades. Not only that, but you can set objective types and switch off certain events like VIP Visits.

Turn Disasters and Invader Challenges off in Custom Mode settingsif you want a peaceful experience on campus.

While playing Sandbox,we recommend testing all these modes in various files firstand seeing what is most satisfying for you. Nevertheless, with modes such as Creative, you will find yourself jumping back into maps you love and giving them a very much-deserved extra creative spark from your ideal campus ideas.
