The Sentinel Trust Network

One small USB dongle. Every game. Plug the SentinelID MK1 into the PC you already own, build your reputation across every supported title, and unlock Trust Play lobbies — where only players with a clean record can compete. No new PC, no accounts, no software, no resets.

SentinelID MK1 — a small USB dongle about the size of a thumb drive

Feature Deep Dive

Hardware-Backed Identity

Every SentinelID MK1 is a small USB dongle that plugs into the PC you already own. Each dongle has a unique cryptographic identity tied to the physical chip. The $300 price and physical shipping time mean cheaters can't instantly reset — getting a new dongle takes real money and real time.

  • Small USB dongle — plugs into your existing PC, no new hardware
  • Unique identity tied to the dongle itself — not your account
  • Every session independently verified in real time
  • A reset means buying a new dongle and waiting for shipping
  • No software to install, no account to create

Bans That Follow the Device

When a violation is detected, the ban is recorded against the device — not just the account. Bans can apply to a single game, all games by a publisher, or the entire network, ensuring there's nowhere for a cheater to hide.

  • Bans stick to the hardware, not the account
  • Covers individual games and the whole network
  • Cheat and social violation categories
  • Temporary bans expire automatically

Cross-Game Reputation Score

Every device has a reputation score (0–100%) built from its full history across all games on the network. Play clean across every title and your score reflects it — carry that trust into any supported game.

  • Score built from your full history across all network games
  • Updated automatically after every session
  • Weighted by the type and severity of any violations
  • A clean record across games is your reputation

Trust Play Lobbies

Games on the network offer Trust Play lobbies — reputation-gated pools where only devices with a clean history are allowed in. No manual review, no appeals queue. Clean players play together.

  • Access gated by your reputation score
  • Automatic — no manual review or queue
  • Standard lobbies remain open regardless of reputation
  • More supported games means more Trust Play opportunities
