The Throne of the Underworld stands empty, and every Overlord is determined to claim it! In STYX, you'll compete for power by recruiting followers, building your army, and making ruthless decisions about the fate of mysterious Emissaries.

Each round, secretly choose whether to Tithe, Muster, or Eliminate two arriving Emissaries. Reveal your decisions simultaneously and compete against your rivals in tense bidding wars using gold and military strength. Recruit powerful followers, collect valuable resources, and develop your influence, but remember that denying your opponents a valuable ally can be just as rewarding as claiming one yourself.

With multiple paths to victory, engine building, hidden decisions, and fierce player interaction, every choice can shift the balance of power. But as Chaos grows, the final confrontation draws closer. Will you have the strength to claim the Throne of the Underworld?
