Notice 05 · Governance exercise
You govern the Frozen Empire for twelve seasons on behalf of Xi Jinpinguin, who stands composed on the ice and does not comment. Keep the colonies fed, warm, loyal and in formation. Too little order and the empire thaws. Too much, and everyone faces front and nobody fishes. Every change is posted on the board with its reason.
The factions. Each colony's faction has an agenda and judges you on it at the start of every season: honour it and it approves, neglect it and it sulks. The agendas pull against each other, so no single policy pleases everyone. Rival factions quarrel once both belong to the empire: favour one and the other seethes, and an open feud lands on the board. Let one faction rise above the rest and it will take over the ending; let a quarrel reach 100 and the ice splits. The best ending needs every faction heard and no feud left open.
Xi Jinpinguin is a satirical penguin character in an invented frozen empire. Every colony, faction, event and notice in this game is fictional; nothing here is a statement by, a quotation of, or a report about any real person, party or government, and the game is not affiliated with any real person or state. The page makes no network requests and stores only your discovered endings, in this browser.
