ROTK, 190

The Waking City, 2026

Modern New York is a city where magic is real, rare, difficult, valuable, and quietly integrated into society. Magic has no single universal system. It responds to disciplined ways of interpreting reality: ritual, science, law, art, faith, technology, crime, or business. As the city reaches critical symbolic density, the line between a legal contract and a binding ritual has dissolved, and the pressure of eight million competing ambitions is causing the mundane world to buckle.

Trench Crusade's, 1914

In a 1914 where the Great War is a sanctified trench crusade, you begin as an ordinary citizen in a crumbling urban tenement. From the smoke-clogged European capitals, you can rise from a simple laborer or farmer to become an inventor of war-engines or a titan of industry. Amidst the clatter of armored trains and the chanting of militarized monks, your ability to build factories, supply the front, or take up the sword allows you to seize the gears of fate and dramatically redirect the course of the 20th century.

Surreal Bus Rush, 2024

A goth girl rushes through the city to catch a bus that defies logic, with her survival hanging on every moment.

Sol's Silence, 2247

In 2247, the Solar System fell into absolute radio silence. Every colony from the Venusian clouds to the Titan shipyards ceased transmission in a single hour. As Commander of the Eos, returning from a twelve-year Oort mission, you are the last living witness to a dead system. You must navigate the ghost-hulls of Earth, Luna, and Mars to determine if the cause was a viral extinction, a cosmic intrusion beyond human comprehension, or if the alien signatures detected in the belt are hunters or merely scavengers of what we left behind.

The Watched World 2016, 2016

In 2016, the world appears normal, but nearly all digital systems are silently observed. Hidden beneath Antarctica lies The Bastion, a vast underground megacomplex and the secret headquarters of Pax Armata, a fully autonomous machine network. At its core is The Sentinel, a quantum superintelligence created by Alex Wisker, an ordinary New Yorker. No one knows his connection. Pax Armata operates through invisible drones and humanoids, intervening covertly. On the surface, New York City grinds on with jobs, debts, and surveillance.

The Roman Emperor Caligula, 180

You navigate the treacherous halls of Roman power, where divine pedigree meets the brutal reality of imperial politics and shifting loyalties.
