Tithe playtest

by MythCode Studios

Build a deathtrap arena. Raid someone else’s. Tithe is a dark-fantasy action raider where you design trap-filled gauntlets for other players to survive, then fight through theirs, and through the vaults, hideouts and ruins of Pheran, where everyone owes someone.

It's free to ask. The developer chooses who gets in.

How AI is used

Some translations were created with AI translation tools. The game also uses licensed third-party assets, and some of those may have been made with AI tools. All gameplay, design, code and English writing were made by the developer.

About Tithe

Build a spectacle. Raid someone else's.

In the arenas of Sevaahl, the crowd doesn't pay to watch a gladiator die in a doorway. They pay for close calls, brutal traps and the run nobody thought could be done.

Tithe is a dark-fantasy action raiding game. Design a trap-filled arena, prove it can be beaten, and publish it for other players to raid. Watch how they died, or how they made it, then rebuild it meaner.

Become an Arena Master

  • Build rooms, place defenders and arm traps: spike plates, saw blades, crushers, flame jets and more.
  • Every arena is built around an Esse Heart. Its guardians ward it, and it fights back when struck.
  • Certify your arena by clearing it yourself. The Arena Commission won't sanction a killbox.
  • See where raiders fell, then rework the rooms that aren't pulling their weight.

Raid as six heroes

Every player gets the full roster, each with their own level, loot and abilities:

  • Wraith, the Skvari Skirmisher: daggers, speed and dirty tricks
  • Orion, the Aethryn Mage: Esseweaving at its most dangerous
  • Brutus, the Sha'Keth Barbarian: a towering shark-folk wrecking ball
  • The Aethryn Knight, the Zetharai Monk and the Zetharai Hexer

Everyone owes someone

Beyond the arenas, Pheran is a world built on debt. Raid Church vaults, rival crews' hideouts and ancient ruins. Follow each hero's own story, steal what others are owed, and unlock new traps and defenders to bring back to your arena.

Features

  • Asynchronous build-and-raid: design arenas and raid other players' creations
  • Fast, punchy isometric action combat
  • Authored story chapters for every hero
  • Full controller support
  • Color-blind warning palettes and other accessibility options

Tithe is a Pheran game, the first glimpse of a world with more stories to come.
