## About Tyranny

Tyranny is a dark fantasy CRPG developed by Obsidian Entertainment and published by Paradox Interactive, released in 2016. Players take on the role of a Fatebinder, an enforcer serving an evil empire, navigating faction politics where choices reshape the story, companions, and endings. The game features a loyalty-and-fear system alongside a reputation system that tracks how actions affect standing with various factions, while skill progression advances through use. Players describe the experience as contemplative, dark, grim, and immersive, with morality remaining fluid throughout with tangible consequences. Spell-crafting utilizes a point-based system. Reviewers highlight four distinct paths offering unique quests and endings, and players can play as the villain enforcing an empire's rule. The game runs at a normal difficulty and takes a medium length to complete. It is currently priced at $29.99 and is playable on Steam Deck.
