Painted banner for Deeds and Debts: warriors of many ages — samurai, legionary, knight and gunslinger — facing their worlds

A text-based sandbox RPG run by any AI

Deeds & Debts

Your world. Your story. Your consequences.

Your ledger is blank. Step into a living world where every decision is written down — and every debt comes due.

Now in private playtesting. Full release coming later.

Deeds & Debts puts you in command while your chosen AI brings the world to life. Lead armies, forge alliances, build a legacy — or carve a path entirely your own. There are no predetermined endings, no guaranteed victories, and no invisible hand protecting you.

One purchase. The complete game. Yours to keep. No subscriptions. No locked mechanics.

Requires a compatible third-party AI platform, which may have its own fees or usage limits.

I — The worlds

Eight ages. One ledger.

Each age is a complete game: its own year, its own command, its own code of honour. History is the stage — never the script.

  1. 32 BC

    Iron Eagle — Rome

    A centurion holding southern Italia in the last spring before Actium.

  2. 866

    North Sea Wolves

    An elected captain of a longship, with the fjord open and the sea calling.

  3. 1176

    Sand and Sepulchre — Jerusalem

    A sergeant of the Temple, keeping the pilgrim roads in a fragile truce.

  4. 1306

    Embers of the West — Scotland

    A free-company captain in the hills weeks after a hunted king's coronation.

  5. 1560

    Sengoku Oath — Japan

    A sworn captain under a mocked young lord, weeks before an invasion marches.

  6. 1718

    Salt and Gallows — Nassau

    An elected captain of a sloop, three weeks before the King's Pardon.

  7. 1881

    Dust and Wire — Arizona

    A range captain riding county writs in the last summer before the O.K. Corral.

    A team leader holding convoys and compounds on a company task order.

II — The rite

Three steps. Then the world moves.

  1. I

    At release, purchase once and keep it forever. One file holds the whole world.

  2. II

    Wake it in any chat

    Attach it to a free ChatGPT, Claude, or Grok conversation.

  3. III

    Speak one sentence

    Say where you begin. The world answers — and remembers.
