Tyranny Archon Edition

Tyranny is a classic-styled RPG set in a realm where the tyrant Kyros has already won. You play a Fatebinder, an officer in the Overlord’s army and an arbiter of law in the occupied lands of the Tiers. Your choices shape a reactive story and can alter the layout of the world as you decide how to reshape the new order.

Your role in the Tiers

You can use your authority and resources to enforce the status quo, seek power within the regime or try to change it from the inside. Your decisions determine whom you support, who becomes an ally or enemy, and whether you act for Kyros’s glory, the good of the world or your own ambition. The story explores morality from the perspective of someone who already holds considerable power, rather than a villager rising to prominence.

Choices and consequences

Your decisions have far-reaching effects, including on the world’s layout. You can strengthen the pillars of the new regime or search for greater power at the top of the new order. As a Fatebinder, you can use your position to inspire stability and loyalty or offer the occupied lands a different way forward.

Tactical combat

Combat uses a real-time-with-pause system, with party-driven mechanics and a modern presentation. The game also features companions who are described as unique and memorable.
