They'll Ask:

Q: Why do people like cyberpunk cities?

A: They mix cool future tech (holograms, robots) with real city problems, making them feel possible but exciting. Plus neon lights look awesome.

Q: Could we really have flying cars by 2045?

A: Some companies are testing them now! But they're super expensive and need special rules. Regular flying cars for everyone? Probably not by 2045, but maybe small drone taxis.

Q: What's the difference between cyberpunk and regular sci-fi?

A: Cyberpunk focuses on big cities, corporations running things, hackers, and tech that's both amazing and causes problems. Regular sci-fi can be about space, aliens, or any future stuff.

If It Flops:

Cloudy?

→ N/A - this is an indoor activity! Perfect for any weather.

They say no?

→ Try: 'Fine, but I'm designing a city with a pizza delivery drone network and you're missing out. Guess you don't want to see my hoverboard parking garage...' Or offer: 'Just draw ONE building? I'll help. We can make it ridiculous together.'

Nothing to see?

→ If they finish fast and get bored: Challenge them to redesign their bedroom as a cyberpunk space. What tech would they add? LED strips? Smart mirrors? A secret compartment? Or build the city in Minecraft/Roblox together after.
