The computer decides who starts the game. On each turn, the player is presented with a series of questions to answer.

The success or failure of your people depends on your answers.

In addition to the above problems, there is always the possibility that you suffer a catastrophe, like a plague, a revolution or attack. However, it can be avoided with good management.
