Free-to-play games are designed to extract. BYOK — Bring Your Own Key — games are designed to be played.
When your wallet powers the AI, developers don't need loot boxes, battle passes, or ads. They just need to make something worth playing. Your money funds NPCs that actually listen, worlds that actually respond, and stories that are actually yours.

Play
NPCs that remember you. Worlds that react. No two playthroughs are the same.
No passwords. No email. Just your Steam account.
Remember arcades? You put in a quarter and got a pure experience. No ads, no manipulation, just the game. Remember WoW? $15/month and you got a world that felt alive because the developers could invest in it.
Free-to-play killed that. When the game is free, you are the product. Every design decision optimizes for engagement and impulse purchases, not for your experience.
BYOK brings it back. A few cents per AI interaction means developers can build things that were never financially possible in free-to-play — a shopkeeper who remembers you stole from them last week, a rival who adapts to your fighting style, stories that branch in ways no one scripted. The games get better because you fund them directly.
When your balance gets low, you'll get a heads-up. No surprise charges, ever.
