How do Invokyr house rules stack?
Steam sells Invokyr house rules as a difficulty curve, not a lobby checkbox. They twist the usual board, then make subsequent challenges more unpredictable. That word matters: later boards are supposed to play “wrong” on purpose. Escape still means beating the last Invokyr Board, not finding a settings toggle.
| Source | What you may treat as real | What you may not |
|---|---|---|
| Steam feature list | House Rules twist usual rules; later stacks get meaner | A named dropdown |
| EA / 1.0 plan | More chaotic House Rules; “cursed rules” as a content bucket | A patch changelog of titles |
| Roll step | A throw can summon a monster, trap, event, or overlay | Hallway-rolling to skip the stack |
| Last board copy | Game Master starts making up the rules | A skippable epilogue |
| Fan “fog / darkness / reverse” lists | Ignore until HUD prints them | Wiki stat blocks |
Unpredictable is the product
Ludogram’s pitch is surprise, not a solved puzzle. If a recap names a rule this wiki has never seen on a prompt, mark it Unverified. Next: who is actually speaking those lines.
Stack is not a difficulty slider we have verified
No store sentence confirms you can turn House Rules off. Play as if they always arrive. If a setting ships later, this page will say so — until then, do not write a “casual mode” guide.
Who voices Invokyr house rules?
The cursed board’s host is the Gamemaster, voiced by Amelia Tyler (press: Baldur’s Gate 3, Hades 2). Store copy also writes Game Master. Same host. She is not a tutorial dummy and not an HP bar you shoot in the foyer. Invokyr house rules arrive as her lines plus whatever the HUD prints after a roll.
| Signal | Play it as | Do not |
|---|---|---|
| Amelia Tyler VO after a board roll | Wait one full sentence | Talk over her in voice chat |
| On-screen rule card | Read it before anyone spends a special | Screenshot it later while dead |
| “Welcome to my game room” | You are in her loop now | Treat the table as safe AFK |
| “I still need all my players close by” | Rally / closeness tax — Unverified as a named rule | Split for “just one more drawer” |
| “Looks like you could not beat me” | Wipe / retry, not a lore dump | Rage-roll the last movement die |
| Silence after a hunt | Check whether an overlay is still live | Assume the night reset |
Turn the voice on
If you play muted, you will spend hide on an empty hall and heal on a scratch. The beginner guide already treats her as the first-run teacher. Same habit here, later in the campaign.
Closeness is not optional flavor
Trailer line: she still needs players close by. That pairs with the co-op rule that split parties eat summons. Roles live on how many players. Next: the one-sentence wait before you throw a special.
When do I listen vs spend during Invokyr house rules?
Executable loop: hear the sentence, then spend. A six-stack that panic-throws during VO is how Invokyr house rules delete the last heal. Movement dice do not argue with an overlay. Special dice might — only if the prompt matches.
| Situation | Do | Hold |
|---|---|---|
| VO still going | Wait the sentence | Every special die |
| Card says you cannot run | Hide if you have it; kite LOS | A movement throw to “skip” |
| Card names a hunt | Buddy pair / bait — see monsters | Spending hinder on an empty door |
| Table still wants golden idols | Escort, then roll | A second movement die as tax |
| Quiet hall, no card | Search | Burning hide “just in case” |
| Last special in the pocket | Only a wipe you cannot kite | Opening a new wing for loot |
| Unknown prompt | Read it out in voice | Trust a streamer nickname |
Caller repeats the card
On six players, one person must say the overlay out loud. That is the same caller who banks dice. Remote specials during a stack wipe the run.
One sentence is the whole skill
You do not need a named encyclopedia to play tonight. You need the pause. Next: the recap overlay this wiki will actually write without inventing a title.
Then keep a special die for the stack

What if Invokyr house rules say I cannot run?
Community recaps quote a card: you cannot run, but you can hide. Unverified as an official rule name. Useful as a spend cue. If that sentence appears, a movement die will not cancel it. A hide die might. Named reverse / cursed-die tables stay TBA.
| If the prompt… | Spend | Do not |
|---|---|---|
| Blocks running, allows hide | Hide on the hunted player | Sprint macros / movement spam |
| Asks for closeness / all players | Rally before the next throw | Solo a themed wing |
| Summons a hunt on top of a stack | The die that matches the hunt | Two specials at once “to be safe” |
| Goes quiet with no card | Resume search | Keep playing as if rooted |
| Looks cursed / reversed on a die | Do not throw it as a heal | Guess from the color |
Hide is the Steam word, not a fan synonym
Steam specials are heal, hide, hinder — plus risk. If a recap says “stealth die” or “invis,” read the in-game label. Catalog: dice.
Do not write a boss-style glance card yet
No official icon sheet, no named rule art. This page stays mechanism-only. Next: how a stack taxes the shop cart.
How do Invokyr house rules tax dice and the shop?
Overlays sit on top of the same loop: search, return, rally, roll, survive, shop. A gadget that helps sprint does nothing if the card forbids running. Keep one special anyway. Furniture never pays this tax.
| You bought / held | Still works if… | Wasted if… |
|---|---|---|
| Movement die | The overlay does not freeze the token walk | You hoped it would cancel “cannot run” |
| Heal | A body is reachable after the sentence | You spent it during VO on a scratch |
| Hide | The card allows hide / breaks LOS | You burned it in an empty closet |
| Hinder | A hunter is committed on a carrier | You opened a fight you cannot finish |
| Shop movement upgrade | The sentence still lets you move | The overlay rooted the squad |
| Furniture | Never answers a stack | You bought it instead of a survive tool |
Shop after extract, not mid-overlay
Spend order lives on shop. If the night is a stacked House Rule night, buy the tool that answers the sentence you actually heard — not a chair.
Idols still walk on two hands
Amelia Tyler will keep asking for golden statues. Extra movement dice do not pay that tax. Carry rules: cursed idols. Next: the honest names table.
What named Invokyr house rules exist?
Honest answer: none this wiki will print as official. Steam confirms the system, the difficulty curve, and a future of more chaotic / cursed rules. Recap quotes are spend cues. Fan titles are fanfic until the HUD matches.
| Claim | Grade | Use tonight |
|---|---|---|
| House Rules exist and stack | Steam-backed | Play later boards as meaner |
| New chaotic House Rules later | Roadmap | Do not freeze a tier list |
| Cursed rules in 1.0 copy | Bucket wording | Not a named row |
| Cannot run / can hide | Recap prompt — Unverified name | Spend hide if the sentence matches |
| Players must stay close | Trailer VO — Unverified as a rule title | Rally before the throw |
| Map-exclusive rule sets | Planning rumor | Unverified — four themes still share the host |
| Difficulty menu of named rules | Not verified | Do not write a toggle guide |
| Streamer “hard mode” nicknames | Ignore | Read the card |
When a name ships, it needs a sentence
A real row gets: in-game title, what it forbids, what it still allows, which special answers it. Until then, the table above is the catalog. Patch talk belongs on Invokyr Discord.
Hunts are not House Rules
Yeti, chess knight, weeping-angel comments live on monsters. An overlay can stack on a hunt. That is two problems, not a renamed boss.
What next
Next: keep a special die for the stack on dice, then check shop only after you extract.
