Turns take minutes · campaigns run at your group’s speed.

How a world becomes a game

From Idea to a Playable Conflict

NextOath is a narrative strategy game played on an interactive map. Your group invents the world, leads rival factions, and every choice reshapes what comes next.

  1. Step 1 — Create a world together: a group answers questions that shape a strange setting.
  2. Step 2 — Take your side: the world becomes rival factions, advisors, and resources.
  3. Step 3 — Face a crisis: a Tide-Engine wakes beneath the ice and demands a decision.
  4. Step 4 — Ask your advisors: a council offers plans, warnings, and questionable confidence.
  5. Step 5 — Commit your action: you submit your plan, your rival submits theirs, and the round waits for everyone.
  6. Step 6 — The world remembers: actions collide on the map, and the next crisis grows from what happened.

Two Phases. One Campaign.

Build together. Rival each other within it.

Collaborative World-Building

Every player helps define the setting through guided creative answers. The places, tensions, and ideas you introduce become the reality every faction must navigate.

  • Choose the kind of world you want to play in
  • Answer evolving questions together
  • Set the tone, conflicts, and possibilities of the campaign
  • Enter strategy with a world your group actually created

Strategy Game

Lead a faction with advisors, take turns on your own schedule, and make moves in natural language. Rival plans collide, consequences unfold, and the campaign pushes toward its ending.

  • Lead a faction generated from your shared world
  • Consult advisors with different perspectives
  • Take async turns without scheduling everyone live
  • Referees resolve outcomes and reveal consequences
