Marcus Aurelius in cosmic armor, hand over his heart

A 21st-century strategy game by Marcos Garcia

Critical Thinking
for a Stoic Mind

You lead the Republic of Aurel against the Kessar Dominion. Drones, cyber attacks, sanctions and a flood of fake intelligence. Marcus Aurelius is your advisor. Think clearly, act justly, and hold the line for twelve seasons.

  1. Intel. Two reports arrive each season. Act on them, verify them, or dismiss them. Some are lies.
  2. Orders. Spend command points on the map: reinforce, advance, negotiate, defend against cyber and disinformation.
  3. The rival moves. Kessar attacks, annexes and hacks.
  4. The hard call. A Stoic dilemma. Your choice shapes morale and your alliances.

All nations, places and events are fictional.
