Parlor games

Parlor games (tavern games) are games that are played in player-built taverns or in-node taverns.. Some will be dice games, others will be card games; and some will be less savory.

The idea behind the tavern games is to create another social interface. This is where players that are loving the RP aspect of MMORPGS- they want to walk into a tavern and meet new people and play games. – Steven Sharif

• These games will involve aspects of both chance and skill.
• They must be played between 2 or more people.
• Players will be able to wager in-game currency against other players.
  • The developers are considering a secondary currency for tavern games that would enable purchase of cosmetic items through a secondary currency market.
  • There may be a ladder system that contributes to gaining this currency based on placement on the ladder.
  • The alternative is to use the regular currency (gold).
• A portion of the income from the game goes to the tavern owner or node.
• Parlor games will vary based on the predominant race of a node.
• There may be unique games that can be acquired through adventuring in the world.
• Tavern owners dictate the table cost of parlor games. The node's mayor dictates the tax rate that applies when money exchanges hands.

When a player wants to engage in a game, they may sit at a table, and another player may sit down with them. At that point the gameplay layer for the mini game will open in a user interface window. Depending on the type of game. – Steven Sharif

Parlor games were a Kickstarter stretch goal.
