This is where Apeiron's next worlds take shape, long before anyone else sees them. Play the prototypes, break them, tell us what you feel. Your reactions steer the design, and the games you help shape here become the ones the world remembers. Stay a while — something monumental is coming, and you're already inside it.
The studio's current focus. Both are playable enough to test — your reactions shape where they go next.

The core engine is locked and the rules are at v3.8. We're running the current ruleset across the table before deciding the digital path. If you want a seat, say the word — this is the round where your read on the bluffing economy matters most.
The Republic has a playable shape. The map, the offices, and the early economy are in — the AI opponent is dormant for now. Expect it to feel deliberately heavy; the weight is the point.
Not on this server yet, but worth knowing: the next Hellas campaign is in final development, with a factory prototype expected within the month. When it's ready to test, you'll see it here first.
