Loki’s Tricks
365 Riddles
One riddle per day for a year. Some are wordplay. Some are mathematics. Some are philosophy. Loki wrote them all. Streak tracking. Global leaderboard. Can you solve 365 in a row without breaking?
The Liar’s Table
One player is Loki. Everyone else is a god. Loki knows the truth but must lie convincingly. The gods must ask three questions each round and vote to banish the liar. If Loki survives three rounds, Loki wins. Bluffing game. Real-time multiplayer. Voice chat optional.
Anansi’s Web
The spider spins a web. You must connect every node without crossing a thread. Starts simple. By level 40 you’re solving graph theory problems without knowing it. By level 80 you’re dreaming in nodes. Based on Euler paths and Hamiltonian cycles. Anansi stole wisdom from Nyame by solving puzzles like these.
Coyote’s Trail
Cross the desert. Every step costs water. Every oasis might be a mirage (Coyote put them there). Landmarks shift when you aren’t looking. Resource management meets procedurally generated deception. The landscape is alive and it’s lying to you. Inspired by the Navajo/Diné Coyote stories where reality itself is unreliable.
Hermes’ Gambit
A card game where you can steal your opponent’s cards. Every card has a visible value and a hidden value. You trade, bluff, and steal. The thief-god invented commerce the same day he was born — and stole Apollo’s cattle that night. Play honestly or play like Hermes.
Eshu’s Crossroads
You stand at a crossroads. Every choice splits into two more. Every path has consequences you won’t see for seven turns. Eshu — the Yoruba trickster — stands between worlds. He doesn’t trick you. He gives you choices and watches what you reveal about yourself. 1,000+ story branches. No two playthroughs are the same.
Mímir’s 9 Riddles
Nine riddles. Each one guards a rune. Solve all nine and you drink from the well of wisdom. New set every week. The riddles aren’t wordplay — they’re pattern recognition, spatial reasoning, and number theory. Odin gave his eye for this knowledge. What will you give?
The Shapeshifter
Every round, one player secretly becomes a different character. Everyone has a public role and a hidden motive. The Shapeshifter can copy anyone’s ability once per game. Inspired by Loki turning into a salmon, a fly, a mare, an old woman. The most socially complex game in the collection. Trust nothing.
Sun Wukong’s 72 Forms
72 transformations. Each form has strengths and weaknesses. Your opponent transforms. You counter-transform. Rock-paper-scissors played at the speed of a mythology with 72 options instead of 3. The Monkey King defeated heaven with this power. Learn all 72 forms or lose.
Reynard’s Court
You are medieval animals in a royal court. Everyone has a secret crime. Reynard the Fox is on trial but he knows everyone’s secret. Trade favors, form alliances, betray them. The last player standing becomes the new king. Based on the 12th-century French fable cycle where the fox outwits the lion, the bear, and the wolf through pure cunning.
Maui’s Hook
Fish the ocean. Pull up islands. Maui fished up the North Island of New Zealand with a magic hook. Every cast is a gamble — you might pull up treasure, land, monsters, or nothing. Push your luck. The ocean remembers your greed. Polynesian resource management meets roguelike fishing. Cooperative mode: four players in one canoe.
Raven’s Heist
Raven stole the sun, the moon, and the stars from the old man who kept the world in darkness. You are Raven. Each level is a heist — infiltrate, shapeshift, steal the light, escape. Physics-based stealth puzzle. No combat. Only cunning. The Tlingit/Haida creation story as a puzzle game.
The Trickster
The master game. All 12 tricksters from every civilization meet in one arena. 50-hour campaign. You play as one trickster and must out-trick the other 12. Every game mechanic from the collection appears as a trial. The final boss is the archetype itself. Beat The Trickster and you’ve beaten the oldest story ever told.
Every culture. One archetype.
The Trickster appears in every civilization on earth. He is the boundary-crosser, the rule-breaker, the one who steals fire and gives it to humanity. He is chaos in service of creation. These 13 games are built on his stories — from Norse Loki to Akan Anansi, Greek Hermes to Polynesian Maui, Chinese Sun Wukong to Haida Raven.
Some games are free. Some are paid. All are real, replayable, and rooted in the oldest stories humanity has ever told.
