An interactive companion to the Cognitive Husbandry series. After the Intake, every resident of New Tripoli wakes into a vast catalogue of sims — worlds to live in, at whatever speed they choose. This site makes that catalogue browsable and pairs it with working instruments that let you operate the real ideas underneath the fiction.
The catalogue mixes described worlds with tools you can actually drive. They fall into three buckets.
Interactive tools that compute the actual numbers — time dilation, feasibility, the bootstrap tech-tree, the molecular assembler, and more. The math behind the world, made operable.
The in-world catalogue itself: described worlds from the series — Jurassic, the Sovereign Sea Platform, Thalassa's Rise, the Azure Janus chain — presented as the residents would browse them.
Short, focused explainers of the core mechanics — quick reads that unpack a single idea before you dive into the full instruments.
Every card and tool is tagged so you always know what kind of claim you're looking at.
Figures and rules taken directly from the series bible — the established facts of New Tripoli.
Real-world physics and engineering estimates, labelled as such — what the science actually says, separate from the fiction.
A described in-world experience from the catalogue, not a playable build.
