Board Game Geek Avg Player Rating: 9.00. This is a game for 1 to 5 players, published in 2020. It's the Retail Edition of The Oracle Expansion for Merchants Cove by Final Frontier Games. It includes The Oracle Expansion, but you need to buy the Merchants Cove core game separately to play. Enter the mysterious world of the Oracle! Roll your unique runes to foretell futures and create enchanting talismans. By accurately predicting the townsfolk, your shop will be full of good luck. Or chart the stars in the sky. There are various actions and gameplay elements. Recruit townsfolk in hours, use staff in 2 hours, do star charting in 2 hours, create horoscopes in 2 hours, divine in 1 hour, and twist fates in 1 hour. Combine different components like runic die, bone, voodoo meeple, and coin to gain different abilities. Remember to use components on the same side of the dish and recast them. Be careful, as having all runes on one side gives a powerful turn but also corruption. We're glad to back campaigns and offer this game at TheGameSteward.
