Chrono vs Tempo

We have all been trapped in that pod. The board is a clogged mess, someone has been staring at their hand for ten minutes trying to sequence a cantrip, your cold brew is empty, and you are aging in real time. Enter Chrono-Tithe. Chrono-Tithe is not just a sleek life counter. It is an automated tax collector for slow play. Instead of a passive chess clock everyone ignores, it enforces an escalating “Tithe Tax.” Overstay your welcome in the think tank and your life total starts draining automatically. It is the perfect way to keep the table moving, or to quietly pressure the pod while you assemble your lock behind a wall of artifacts. CORE FEATURES (always free) THE TITHE ENGINE: An escalating turn timer that ramps through four tiers, from Standard to Accelerated to Punishing to Lethal. Choose the turn the tax starts to tighten and watch it change the way your pod plays. BLIND-TAP LIFE TRACKING: Zero-friction split cards. Tap the right side of a player’s color block to gain life, tap the left to lose it. Press and hold to swing by 5 at a time. You never have to take your eyes off the board. FULL COMMANDER TRACKING: Poison, energy, experience, +1/+1, commander tax, and per-source commander damage, with 21 from a single commander tracked and flagged automatically. Monarch and the Initiative too. BUILT FOR THE TABLE: 2 to 6 players, format presets for Commander, 1v1, Two-Headed Giant, and Brawl, a pre-game lobby to set seating and decide who goes first, plus a dice roller, coin flip, and random-player picker. PLAY TOGETHER, ON EVERY PHONE: Connect the whole pod over local Wi-Fi or Bluetooth and everyone plays on their own screen, in sync. Tap your own life, pass your own turn, track your own commander damage, and watch it land on every device instantly. No internet, no accounts, no server. Joining a pod is always free. POST-GAME BREAKDOWN: Average turn length for every pilot and a golden Efficiency Star for the fastest player at the table. Hit Replay Pod to run it back with the same roster in one tap. MINIMALIST AND TACTILE: Deep true blacks, fluid gestures, and subtle haptics, designed to preserve battery and reduce visual fatigue during long matches. Scales cleanly from iPhone to a 12.9-inch iPad, and the screen stays awake during play. CHRONO-TITHE PRO (optional, one-time) The full game is free forever, with every life total, counter, timer, and tool included. A single one-time unlock (no subscription) adds: HOST MULTIPLAYER: Host a synced pod so the whole table plays on their own phones. Joining a pod is always free; hosting one is Pro. THEMES AND ACCENTS: Ten background themes and a full neon accent palette. CLOCK MODES: Alternate ways for the clock to bite. Three are live: Sudden Death (at the Lethal tier, overtime eliminates you outright), Time Bank (unused seconds roll into your next turn), and Chess Clock (one game-long budget per player). Team Clock is on the way, included free. TIMER-ONLY MODE: Switch the Tithe off to time turns with no life loss. COMMANDER ART AND SEAT COLORS: Set any commander’s art as a seat’s background and give each seat its own color. MATCH HISTORY: Every pod saved and synced to your own iCloud, so it survives a reinstall or a new phone with no login. All future Pro features included, free. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account. No ads. No tracking. Your roster, settings, and history live on your device and in your own iCloud, never on our servers. Multiplayer is a direct device-to-device connection over your local network, not through any server of ours. Chrono-Tithe collects zero data about you. Set your pod. Start the clock. Pay the tithe.

Tempo is the table companion for Magic: The Gathering. Lay the phone flat in the center of the table and every player gets their own seat, rotated to face them. Open, pick a mode, play. YOUR COMMANDER, BEHIND YOUR LIFE Search any Magic card and put its art behind your life total. Playing partners? Split your panel between both commanders with a slanted seam in your colour. Every painting is credited to its artist, and art is saved on your phone so it works with no signal. SAVE YOUR POD Save players with their name, colour and card art, and seat them at any seat next game in one tap. Changes you make at the table are kept in the saved player. LIFE MODE Tap the top or bottom half of your seat to move life. Hold to ramp. Every seat shows a delta chip so the whole pod can see what just happened. Starting life at 20, 30, 40 or any custom total, for 2 to 4 players. Pick your seat colour from eight tones. CHESS CLOCK MODE Every player gets their own time bank. Tap your seat to start your clock and pause everyone else. Low time glows ember, and a seat that hits zero is out. Long-press the center to change the time bank mid game. Perfect for tournament practice, timed pods and tables that take too long. BUILT FOR COMMANDER Commander damage per opponent, tracked from each source so the 21 damage rule is always exact, including partner commanders: each partner keeps its own count. Damage turns ember as it gets close to lethal. Poison, energy, experience, rad, treasure and commander tax counters. Monarch and initiative that move with a tap. Death causes are named on the shroud, and Revive brings back a seat eliminated by mistake. MANA POOL AND STORM A shared mana pool with official mana glyphs and a storm count that lives outside your mana total. DICE AND RANDOMIZERS Coin flip, d4 to d20, custom dice, a random seat picker and a random opponent picker. Natural 20s get the gold burst they deserve. MADE FOR THE TABLE Seats face each edge of the phone, two per side or square. Players, colours and art persist between games. The screen stays awake for the whole game. Dark by design, so it does not light up the room. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account, no sign in, no ads and no tracking. Everything stays on your device. The only time Tempo goes online is when you search for card art, and all it sends is the search. Card data and images are provided by Scryfall.
