How to Play in 60 Seconds
The complete SculptAI game loop in five steps: found a village, make three decisions per generation, watch history compound, collapse, and carry a legacy forward.
A full run takes about 20 to 30 minutes. Here is the whole game in five steps.
- You start with a small village: a handful of citizens, each with inherited traits.
- Every generation you make three decisions. Who pairs off, what role each adult takes, and how you answer one crisis.
- The engine resolves the generation. Children are born and inherit their parents’ strengths. Your people discover things, found institutions, and survive their disasters, or don’t.
- After seven generations your dynasty collapses. It always does. You get a Legend Card: the myth of everything you built.
- You keep one legacy and start again, a little stronger and a little wiser.
Collapse isn’t failure. It’s the point. Your first dynasty teaches you the game. Your tenth is the one people remember. The whole idea is to see how far you can push a civilization over a lifetime of runs.
