Second Past turns history into survival roguelike

This is a strong premise because it blends historical simulation with open-ended AI interaction instead of just wrapping a chatbot around a game loop.

• –The core loop is clear: choose an era, attempt actions, survive as long as possible, die permanently.
• –The historical framing gives the AI system more structure than a generic freeform RPG, which should help with coherence.
• –Features like the chronicle, spectator mode, and path visualizations add replay value beyond the novelty pitch.
• –The main risk is that “you can do anything” claims often outpace the actual simulation quality unless the probability engine stays consistent and transparent.
