Paladin's Oath combines elements of RPG and light deck-building where Cards, Mana, Recruitable Followers and always-on Blessings must be synergized to Move, Interact and Battle with unlimited undo mechanics during battles to find the best possible outcome.
This game is a labor of love made by and for people that enjoy complex and thinky board games, digital or physical card games and deck builders, puzzles, strategy games and chess. The randomness is limited and somewhat mitigated making it ideal for players that like to plan ahead.
Absolutely no micro-transactions, live service, virtual currencies, always online or any of that, ever. You just buy the game and enjoy high complexity challenging fun.
Card-based everything: movement, interaction, battles. Akin to a resource management game with puzzle mechanics.
Slow paced: take your time, plan your turn, manage your cards and resources wisely.

Awesome power curve: you start powerful and grow even more powerful, if you can synergize your cards thoughtfully that is.
