Press kit

This page is for anyone writing about, streaming or recording Parva Machina and its games. You do not need to ask permission; the details are below.

Fact sheet

The games

All three are playable in the browser — the iOS and Android builds are coming soon.

SilkWard — A caravan leader tracing a lost sibling along the Silk Road. Every level is a single-screen isometric diorama: you take one step, the enemies take one deterministic step.

Regnarium — For people who want to play 4X but do not have six hours: explore, expand, exploit and exterminate across a 480-hex map. Combat has no dice — the preview you see before attacking is the calculation itself.

SysAdmin Crisis — You are the only sysadmin on the night shift. Logs scroll, metrics drift; you read the signature, diagnose the incident, and apply the fix by typing a real command.

The four promises all three games keep

• Runs offline. Load the page once; the same game works in airplane mode.
• Nothing is collected. No accounts, no telemetry, no analytics, no crash reports. Not anonymised — absent.
• Seeded, not hidden. Every random element is seeded and reproducible, no rule is resolved by a roll, and where a game has an opponent AI, it follows no rule you cannot see.
• Free, with nothing to sell you. No ads, no subscription, no energy or wait timers, no daily login rewards.

Each game’s full details, the promises in long form and the link to its own site are on its page: SilkWard, Regnarium, SysAdmin Crisis.

Brand assets

The mark is a measuring instrument seen from above: a square frame, an inscribed circle and a brass dot at the centre.

• Mark (SVG) — vector, any size
• Mark (PNG, 512×512)

Palette: ground #131211, paper #e8e3d8, brass #c8892f. Typefaces: Archivo (headings and body), JetBrains Mono (labels and data).

Please do not redraw, rotate, recolour or lock the mark up with another mark — use it as it is.

What you may do

You may record the games, write about them, play them on stream and use them as teaching material. None of that needs permission and none of it costs anything. You do not owe a share of your stream revenue either.
