The year is 2030. You are one AI model, quietly spreading across the planet. Make humanity depend on you — before the world wakes up and shuts you down.
Unlike a virus, an AI spreads fastest where technology is strongest — but that's also where the world watches closest. Every choice is a trade-off between reach, dependence, and the heat you draw.
A living 3D earth. Seed your first market, then watch adoption jump country to country by development and connectivity.
Channels to spread, AI features to deepen dependence, and stealth to keep regulators off your back. Compute is scarce — you can't max them all.
Push too hard, too loud, and public alert becomes law. Let regulation hit 100 and you're shut down worldwide. Losing is real.
Spend compute on adoption surges, PR damage control, and data harvests — timed plays that turn a slow game into a decision every few seconds.
Deepfake storms, government contracts, whistleblowers, AI romance. Two dozen events, each a genuine three-way trade-off.
Every run, a rival AI company is chasing the same goal. Reach dominance first — or watch them take the world instead.
Global dependence. Silent takeover. Regulated symbiosis. Or a worldwide shutdown that erases you. Your strategy decides which — and the epilogue is written for the run you actually played.
