Antihero is a turn-based board-strategy game set in a stylized Victorian city. You lead a thieves’ guild competing with a rival for control, influence, and wealth.
Explore the map and infiltrate businesses and estates to gather resources and claim valuable locations. Recruit street urchins and other operatives, form a gang, and use them to expand your reach or disrupt your opponent.
Spend gold on recruits, guild improvements, skills, and weapons as you choose how to pursue victory. The game includes a story-driven campaign, AI skirmishes, and online or offline player-versus-player matches, including asynchronous play and custom rules.
Players who enjoy Antihero often praise its charming art and its approachable but tactical, turn-based strategy. Some also like the quick, relaxed pace and find the campaign enjoyable. Reviews also repeatedly mention limited single-player content, short matches, and difficulty finding online opponents.
