The Throne of the Underworld stands empty, and every Overlord intends to claim it.
In STYX, two Emissaries arrive before the council each round. Secretly decide their fate: Tithe them for wealth, Muster them into your army, or Eliminate them to harvest their Soul while denying them to your rivals. Then reveal everyone's choices at once. What seemed like a simple decision erupts into bidding wars—fought with gold to recruit followers and with military Strength to decide who survives.
Every Emissary offers different rewards: Influence, income, Elements, Souls, or powerful abilities. Building the strongest army isn't always enough; knowing when to sacrifice a valuable card—or prevent an opponent from claiming it—can be even more important.
Multiple paths lead to victory, but time is never on your side. Every Emissary left behind fuels Chaos, bringing the game closer to a final confrontation where the strongest surviving army may seize the Throne instead.
Featuring simultaneous hidden decisions, tense bidding, engine building, and constant player interaction, STYX is a game of calculated betrayal where every choice strengthens you... or weakens everyone else.
