Oracle

Chosen by the goddess herself, the players take on the roles of priests conducting sacred rituals to return wandering souls to heaven. Each ceremony is a battle of faith and foresight, where divine crystals and soul cards channel celestial power. As the ritual unfolds, only those who interpret the goddess’s will and manage their spiritual energy wisely will ascend to divine favor. Oracle is a game for 3–6 players in which players, acting as priests and deacons, perform consecutive “rituals” to earn the goddess’s blessing. Each ritual alternates between a Declaration Phase, where players wager crystals to join the ceremony, and an Ascension Phase, where they play increasingly powerful Soul Cards to claim control. The priest may play multiple cards of matching value, while special cards such as 6 (Reverse), 8 (Cut), and the Oracle (Reset) dramatically shift the flow of play—reversing strength, ending rounds, or nullifying numbers in play. Players who exhaust their crystals are eliminated, and after several rituals, the priest who ascends with the highest score is declared the most devout servant of the goddess.
