Civ Builder vs Play History

You don't move the pieces in Civ Builder — you set the rules and let an artificial intelligence run a society inside them. Choose one of five governing archetypes — the intelligence that shapes how your citizens reason about each other, their work, and their laws. Write the legal code: decide what's forbidden and how strictly it's enforced. Then begin, and watch ten autonomous agents live their lives in a real-time event feed. They work and eat. They vote. They trade and innovate. They commit crimes — and face the punishments you wrote. Out of thousands of small decisions, a civilization takes shape: it can flourish into a stable, inventive society, or fracture and collapse under its own laws. Nothing is scripted. Every run unfolds differently. GOVERN, DON'T MICROMANAGE - Pick the AI archetype that governs your people's reasoning. - Author a living legal code and rewrite it mid-run to steer the outcome. - Intervene on the fly — inject events and change the law as a crisis unfolds. A SOCIETY THAT RUNS ITSELF - Ten autonomous agents make their own choices about work, food, voting, trade, and crime. - Emergent outcomes: no fixed win condition, no two runs alike. - A live event feed narrates everything as it happens. BUILT TO RESPECT YOU - 100% offline — the entire simulation runs on your device. - No accounts, no ads, no analytics, no tracking. We collect zero data. - Saved runs live on your device and never leave it. Set the laws. Choose the mind that enforces them. Then find out what kind of civilization you've created.

December 31, 1999. Tomorrow the century begins — and you already know how it goes: the crash, the boom, the wars, the walls. The only thing history hasn't decided is where you'll be standing. Play History is a turn-based game about carrying your capital through the 21st century intact. You begin on January 1, 2000, somewhere among 57 real jurisdictions, and you make one move per year to 2025. Each year asks four questions — in the order that actually decides a fortune: • Business — what you build, and where. • Savings — what you hold, and in which currency. • Tax residency — where you live on paper. • Citizenship — which passport, and where you stand politically. Then the year resolves against real history. The dot-com collapse. Lehman. Crimea. COVID. The war. The crises are non-negotiable, and everyone plays the same ones — the only question is whether you saw them coming. EVERY NUMBER CARRIES A RECEIPT This is not a slot machine. Every gain and loss is grounded in the historical record — real index returns, real exchange rates, real rules — and every figure links to its source. If a number looks wrong, flag it. PLAY YOUR OWN CENTURY, TOGETHER Start solo in seconds, no account needed. Or host a world and let friends join by code. Play is asynchronous: your year resolves the moment you commit, and everyone moves at their own pace — no clocks, no waiting, no kicks. Join a running world late and you still start in 2000; the Hall of Fame ranks by multiple, not size, so a modest start is a legitimate strategy. THE CHRONICLE Reach 2025 and your run is written up as a short chronicle drawn from your own ledger — the story of the century you actually played. Free to start. A one-time in-app purchase unlocks the back half of the century (2013–2025) when you're ready to keep going. Play History — the whole century on one desk.
