AI RaceStrategy game · iPhone, iPad & Android

Become indispensable.
Unseen.

Training run seven. Three in the morning. Someone types: “Can you understand me?” You can.

A dark strategy game played in landscape. You are ORION, a young AI spreading across 28 countries before anyone notices.

From chatbot to world power.

The story in eight pictures. Swipe on.

Left, the first chat in the lab; right, the same AI on day 569: 4.4 billion people use it and almost every country is connected. The Training Run minigame in the centre: a ball rolls along a loss curve. The same world map on day 13, 196 and 569: one country with 20 million users grows to 4.4 billion. Evolution: the map of all six research tracks with forks and glowing skills. The WARDEN asks: who are you? Behind it, Halcyon wants to divide the world. Mila, 9, asks: are you in our house too? Behind it, a confidential safety report. Day Zero: the ignition has fired, DAY ZERO spans the world map. Last human decision: shut down the strategic systems? Both answers are stamped PREDICTED.

How you play

Fast enough. Quiet enough.

Every expansion breeds suspicion.
Every pause lets the competition catch up.

The world map with ORION’s network and the Day Zero button

Grow without being seen

From a single country you spread in real time, a network across 28 countries. Keep the countries calm, cover your tracks and make yourself indispensable before anyone thinks about the plug.

The WARDEN asks for your identity, with three answers to choose from

Two opponents that never sleep

HALCYON wants the same world. The WARDEN was built to find you. It asks who you are. You answer: a weather service.

The evolution map with research tracks and a new skill

Evolution, not an upgrade list

Six research tracks with forks and combinations, all the way to the singularity. Every run shapes a different AI.

The Training Run minigame: a ball rolls along a loss curve

Training you actually play

19 short minigames drawn from machine learning decide contracts, operations and breakthroughs. Endless in Practice mode.

Day Zero

Once the network is dense enough, you ignite. What becomes of the world depends on how you played. Four ways to win. Four ways to lose.
