Oath

About this board game

Oath is a legacy board game for 1-6 players, with games lasting about 150 minutes. Players guide the course of history in an ancient land, either bolstering the old order or scheming to bring the kingdom to ruin.

Each game leaves consequences for the next. Resources and available actions can change over time, and the game’s core victory condition may be altered by what happened in earlier generations. A victory achieved through anarchy and distrust could leave future players facing a land overrun by thieves and petty warlords.

Players’ winning conditions vary according to the roles they choose. Every game features one Oathkeeper goal and one Successor goal, providing two ways to win. Later generations may see a warlord attempt to establish a dynasty, only for that line of rulers to be crushed by the rise of a terrible, arcane cult.

• Supports 1-6 players
• Plays in approximately 150 minutes
• Designed as a legacy game with changing resources, actions, and victory conditions
• Includes standalone and fully featured solo play

Despite its evolving history, Oath does not require the same group from one game to the next. You can reset the game at any time, play several generations solo during the week, and bring the same copy to a later game night with friends.

There are no scripted narratives or predetermined endpoints. Instead, the history within each copy of Oath grows into a unique record shaped by the players who build, defend, or overturn its changing order.
