What is Pyre?
Pyre is a party RPG set in the Downside, a fantasy purgatory where exiles compete for freedom. You travel with a group of exiles, choose three for each Rite, and play three-on-three contests while making story choices. The journey continues after wins and losses, and a local versus mode lets two players compete outside the campaign.
For you if...
- +you enjoy dialogue-heavy stories with branching choices
- +you like fast contests where you choose your team
- +you want local versus matches alongside a story campaign
Not for you if...
- −you want action without extensive reading between matches
- −you dislike sports-like contests as the main gameplay
What players say
90% of 9,351 reviews are positive · 66% of 12 in the last 30 days
Players praise the characters, art, and music, and some appreciate that losses do not stop the story. Common complaints are slow pacing between matches and Rites that feel repetitive.
