What is titans-of-war-ashes-of-nika?

Titans of Constantinople: Ashes of Nika is a browser-based city-building strategy game set in the Byzantine Empire. The player takes on the role of governing Constantinople across twelve seasons, from winter 532 through autumn 534, right after the historical Nika revolt burned much of the city. The task is to balance rebuilding the city with managing political factions, defending the frontier, and dealing with the start of Emperor Justinian's wars in the west. The game runs entirely in the browser, with no account, server, or internet connection required to play, and all progress is saved locally rather than sent anywhere. Each turn, the player picks one of six damaged city districts and commissions projects such as clearing rubble, building housing, restoring water supply, growing food production, setting up workshops, or improving fire safety and watch patrols. Some projects work better in certain districts, so placement matters. The player also moves a limited pool of military forces between the eastern front, Africa, the Balkans, and the capital's home defense, and must resolve seven imperial council meetings tied to real political problems from that period. After each season, the game shows a detailed report and tracks separate scores for urban recovery, political stability, military strategy, treasury health, and the emperor's legitimacy. At the end, the player can download a written chronicle of their reign as a plain text file. The README is clear that this is a game built around historical research, not a strict simulation, and its scoring systems are meant to make the era's real constraints understandable rather than claim precise historical accuracy. The design draws on primary historical sources including Procopius and the Chronicon Paschale. The code is open source under the MIT license, though the game's images and other visual assets are covered by a separate license.
