ΠΟΛΙΣ is a single-city historical strategy game set in classical Athens. You take the city from Solon's reforms (594 BC) to the Lamian War and the end of the democracy (322 BC) — one complete, unbroken arc of 272 years.

This is not a sandbox. History has a current, and it runs toward 322 BC. Persia withdraws, Sparta endures, Macedon rises, Chaeronea falls in 338, the democracy ends in 322 — and no internal policy can wash those away. What you *can* change is everything in between: who holds power, which faction prevails, whether the gods favour you, how the empire's silver is spent. Even the great counterfactuals of history — making peace at Pylos, vetoing the Sicilian Expedition, holding the line at Aegospotami — are on the table, but only as steeply-priced gambles that converge back to 322 BC.

The event illustrations throughout are public-domain paintings on classical themes; the city itself is reconstructed in a clean 3D style.

**Features**

• **272 years, one city** — a complete historical arc with 332 researched events, from the archaic reforms to the Persian Wars, the age of Pericles, the Peloponnesian War, and the Macedonian dawn.

• **Tension, not number-walls** — balance the pull of aristocratic families, the favour of the Olympian gods, and the demands of the Delian and Second Athenian Leagues. Every gain is bound to a cost.

• **Statesmen with stories** — appoint historical figures, weather their ambition and the envy of rivals, face ostracism and impeachment.

• **107 public-domain paintings on classical themes** illustrate the events — drawn from museum collections in the public domain (not original artwork), each shown in a gilded frame and an in-engine sketch variant.

• **Nine languages** — English, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Japanese, German, French, Spanish, Brazilian Portuguese, Russian.

• **3D Athens** — an archaeologically-minded reconstruction of the city: the Acropolis on its limestone crag, the Agora, the Long Walls to Piraeus, the rivers of the Attic plain.

• **A shareable epitaph card** seals each playthrough; emergent endings and meme achievements reward replaying the same arc a different way.

• **For the hardcore: Ironman** — achievements are earned only in Hard + Ironman: a single ever-overwritten save, no reloading, your choices final. Normal mode plays freely with full saves for everyone else.
