The oracle of Delphi
The little extra: a tile game where completing the tasks of the gods will earn you their favor! Will you be able to meet their expectations? The oracle will guide you the best!
In The Oracle of Delphi, the player's ships travel across a large variable game board of hexagonal tiles showing the surrounding islands and waters.
Each player aims to reach certain islands to complete the twelve tasks given by Zeus: for example, collecting offerings of different colors and delivering them to the corresponding temples, or slaying monsters of a specific type (and color), which can all be discovered on the islands.
In order to perform these color-dependent actions, you are provided with three colored dice each turn, the so-called "oracle dice".
Rolling the dice (at the start of the round) is equivalent to consulting the oracle, while the results represent his answers.
The answers determine which actions you can take, but you will always have three actions per turn.
However, a slight discrepancy with your destiny is often possible.
In addition to the oracle, you can request support from the gods, and you can acquire favor tokens, companions, and other special abilities that will help you win the race against other competitors.
Differently equipped ships and the varying layout of the game board will provide challenging and interesting new strategic and tactical decisions with each new Oracle of Delphi game you play.
