Antihero is a digital board game set in a Dickensian underworld, where players recruit urchins and thugs, steal, and use bribery or assassination to win. It offers a campaign, AI skirmishes and PvP.

Antihero is a fast-paced digital board game with a Dickensian underworld theme. Players build a criminal guild by recruiting street urchins, hiring thugs and starting a gang. Victory can be pursued through several routes, including theft, bribery, blackmail and assassination.

The game centres on controlling a city and its wealth. Players infiltrate businesses, sneak into estates, set traps and steal from their opponent while protecting their own holdings. An in-game economy lets players spend gold on new recruits, upgrades to their thieving skills and weapons.

Antihero includes a story-driven campaign and skirmishes against the AI. Online play covers casual and ranked PvP, with the option of asynchronous matches against friends or Live Matches. Custom House Rules let players adjust how a game is played, and in-game leaderboards show player rankings. Offline PvP is also included.
