In Pact, you’re competing for control of the tiny bug kingdom of Branchbourne. To do that, you’ll be making Pacts with four powerful Pillars of society: the Nobility, Merchants, Military, and Church.
Each Pact is essentially a promise to that Pillar. Stronger Pacts give you more Influence to use throughout the kingdom, but they also come with greater expectations. Fulfill your Pacts and you’ll earn Legitimacy. Fail to deliver on your promise, and you can lose it instead.
Your goal is to have the most Legitimacy at the end of the game. However, if at the end of any season you have 13 more Legitimacy than the player in last place, you’ll immediately win the game. There’s also one way for everyone to lose: if the Military fails to defend the kingdom from the Centipedes twice, everyone loses.
Question of the Day: What interesting pacts have you made throughout your life?
