Learn history. Then change it.
Augur is a history learning app from the makers of History Forge. History told as stories, by a very polite skeleton who has seen how they all end. Each chapter is a short, painted, narrated documentary on one moment that changed the world. Then the story hands you the seat.
YOU MAKE THE CALL
You are Pompey, the week Caesar crosses the Rubicon. Spartacus, with an army and nowhere to go. A king of Northumbria, the year the longships arrive. Three decisions, one swipe each. Make better calls than the people who were really there and you beat history. Make the same ones and you match it. Make worse ones and history wins. Along the way, give your own take on the big question and see how other players split.
THEN SEE WHAT REALLY HAPPENED
After your verdict, the augur tells you what the real people chose and how it really ended. It is the easiest way to learn history and actually remember it, because you were there.
REWRITE IT IN WHAT IF HISTORY GAMES
You are Harold, 1066, with a crown and two invasions on the way. Ten calls, one swipe each. Most runs end badly. That's the fun. Get it right and you change how history ends.
