Who it's for

Fans of the Pandoria setting who want a faster, more accessible follow-up, or players who like semi-cooperative games with shared rewards.

Not for you if…

You want a purely competitive experience, Pact's core loop leans on cooperating with neighbors for tasks, which softens direct conflict.

🦊

Vibe's take

Lighter and faster than its thematic predecessor Pandoria, with a semi-cooperative twist, recruiting goblins to tackle a task together gives both players a reward, so alliances form and dissolve constantly.

About this game

Pact has you leading a goblin clan that just chased the old Five Realms out of the Hiddenlands, now scrambling to trade, research, and build faster than the other goblin clans, while quietly deciding whether to team up or go it alone.
