Core Gameplay: Place Your Stone at Every Crossroads The game is built on a turn-based simulation advancing by year and month. You will again and again face documented historical events: a sudden flood, a frontier rebellion, a remonstrance from a scholar-official, a succession dispute within the inner palace. Each event offers multiple branches of choice, and your decision rewrites faction relations, the treasury's balance, and the...

Each event offers multiple branches of choice, and your decision rewrites faction relations, the treasury's balance, and the hearts of the realm—in real time. There is no "right answer" here, only cost and trade-off. Cutting taxes wins the people's favor for a season, yet empties the coffers; elevating a worthy hermit may rally...
