Pricing

Try TribeNet for Free — No Risk, Just Adventure.

TribeNet is not a free game — but your first steps cost nothing. Every new player receives $200 AUD (Australian Dollars) in free game credit, enough to explore the world, learn the mechanics, and experience the depth of the game for an etxended time without paying for anything.

For Peter the GM, running the game is close to a full-time role, but he is well supported by a number of players who contribute gaming knowledge, coding skills and general experience in various aspects of the game.  While much of the turn processing is automated, a great deal of manual oversight and creative moderation is still required. He not only ensures that turns are executed fairly and smoothly but also works tirelessly to enrich the world of TribeNet with compelling events, personalized responses, and dynamic storytelling. Your support helps maintain the quality and longevity of the game.

We understand the hesitation to pay for a game in today’s sea of free-to-play titles. But TribeNet offers something rare: depth, persistence, and real human connection. Here, your decisions matter. The world evolves. And you’re not just playing against an algorithm — you’re engaging with over 90 other players and an active, responsive gamemaster who’s been running this game for decades.

All documentation to play the game is provided free of charge. Students or unemployed players can request discounted rates, and you’re welcome to share a position with friends or family — splitting both the challenge and the cost.

Payments are handled securely through PayPal.
