After Consilium, I wanted to build something entirely different. Smaller. Weirder.
The idea came from a single Asterix sceneโAsterix and Obelix trying to obtain Permit A38, only to discover you need Permit A38 to apply for Permit A38. That's the whole game.
๐ช๐ต๐ฎ๐ ๐ ๐ฏ๐๐ถ๐น๐: A bureaucratic text adventure powered by one fine-tuned 1.7B model playing five different charactersโeach with their own system prompt, their own rules, and their own way of sending you in circles.
โ Clerk Vitalstatistixโrequires Form 27b/6. Has never issued a permit in 23 years.ย
โ Supervisor Caligula Minusโperpetually at lunch. Invented A38 in 1987, forgot why.ย
โ SYSTEMA v2.3โlast updated 1994. Every response starts with an error code.ย
โ Form 27b/6โsent. Not happy about it. Page 3 is always missing.ย
โ Ombudsman Panoramixโinvestigates complaints about the process. It is also the process.

- Fine-tuned SmolLM2-1.7B on ~1000 synthetic NPC examples generated with Claude. - Converted to GGUF Q4_K_M for fast CPU inference - Streaming responses so you feel the bureaucracy arriving in real time - Custom beige government office UI
