"Parable of the Polygons" is a browser game that combines puzzles with an article-like format to teach players about the impact of small decisions on global outcomes. Shapes such as squares and triangles must be arranged to maintain specific ratios among their neighbors, with difficulty increasing as their population grows. Inspired by Thomas Schelling's 1971 paper on segregation, the game offers various modes, thorough instructions, and the ability to replay levels.
