## What is Ark?

400 years from Earth. 
Zero contact. 
Critical systems failing.

Welcome to the Ark.

A resource crisis has forced the ship’s Council to make a hard choice: reduce the population to save energy for the mission. You have been woken up for a "Potential Assessment." You have one week to demonstrate your value.

Failure means ejection.

Ark is not just a text adventure; it is a psychological battle against a crew that has lost its humanity. Born in sterile corridors, the officers view you as a variable in an equation. Through dynamic, real-time conversations powered by advanced on-device AI, you must navigate their logic, exploit their biases, and survive the politics of a dying starship.

FEATURES:

• SOCIAL ENGINEERING: Engage in unscripted conversations with AI characters driven by complex personality traits. There are no dialogue trees - every argument you make matters.
• THE CONTEXT GAP: Explain Earth concepts to a crew that only understands algorithms. Can you justify the value of "marketing" or "history" to a machine-minded engineer?
• PERMADEATH: Every choice has consequences. If your Utility Score drops too low, you will be liquidated to save resources.
• PRIVACY FIRST: Powered entirely by local LLMs. No internet connection required. Your story stays on your device.
• BRUTALIST UI: Immerse yourself in the "Void Terminal" - an interface designed for survival, not comfort.

The Mother AI is watching. The air filters are failing. Talk your way out, or return to the void.
