The latest addition no one saw coming was gaining a random consumable item or equipment accessory each consecutive day you open the game while connected to a Paradox account. That’s right: daily rewards, a staple of freemium mobile games, have arrived in Terratus.
Daily Tyranny Rewards
This feature was added on the down-low and was mentioned by a small icon you could hover over near the bottom of the screen, which can be seen in the screenshot below.
A new menu item seems to have appeared…
For those logged in with a Paradox account, you’ll get a reward for each consecutive day you login and play.Here are some of the rewards:
Healing Potion (Fine) - 50% HP Healing Potion (Superior) - 100% HP Potion of Revival - brings a fallen party member back from unconscious Cairn’s Leaf - +4 Armor, +20% Endurance defense Oldwater - +10 Arcane Armor, +20% Magic Defense Potion of Elemental Barrier - +10 Shock/Fire/Frost Armor, +50 Defense vs. Paralyzed/Burning/Frozen Dire Remedy - 120-pt Stasis Shield, +4% Max Health Potion of Heroes - +2 to all Attributes Scarlet Poison - Poisons enemies on Crit Fatiguing Toxin - Weakens enemies on Crit Potion of Invisibility - invisible for 120s Skycap - +10 Lore, +10 Magic Skills, +4 Wits Sanguine Scroll - offers Blood Of The Fallen ability Wrought In Ruin - 1 handed sword with Eradicating ability
Signing Up In-Game
For those who want to try out the new daily incentives, just click the Paradox Account button in the main menu before loading a game, then choose “create an account.”
Tyranny oddly freezes when you create an account in-game rather than at the Paradox website, but otherwise, the option appears to work fine. Just alt-tab away to your email, and you’ll have the subscription confirmation.
From there you don’t have to re-login each day: You remain logged in each time you open Tyranny.

What’s It Mean For Future Obsidian Games?
While neither Obsidian nor Paradox have stated anything to this effect, there are rumblings that the move heralds microtransactions coming soon.
Reservations are already starting to be expressed by gamers across the web, with concerns of unbalancing the game with too many healing/poison consumables, as well as complaints that we are sliding towards an experience too much like casual mobile gaming.
Do you plan on taking advantage of the daily rewards or will you be skipping them entirely?
