With the monarchy overthrown, a young republic is born. It falls on you, as the head of the ruling council, to lead this fragile republic through uncertainty, ambition, and unrest – while surviving the weight of your own choices.Deck of Mandate is a minimalist political strategy game set in a fictional medieval republic. Each run presents you with 24 randomly drawn scenarios, and each scenario offers only two stark choices. Every decision of yours can affect any of the four pillars on which this republic was founded:Power – your personal authority as council headStability – stability through law, order, and securitySupport – the will and backing of the peopleWealth – the republic’s treasury, resources, and assetsEvery decision of yours echoes, tilting the pillars one way. Tip the value of any pillar to 0 or 100, and your legacy ends in flames – from rebellion, tyranny, chaos, or ruin. Victory only comes by maintaining a balanced rule.Multiple hand-crafted decision cardsNew cards unlock every few runs, offering replayabilityRandomized card draws ensure each run is a new political messNo hints, no “right” answers or choices – only compromiseCan you hold the republic together by balancing power, support, stability, and wealth, or will you end up watching your rule fall apart again and again?Mess up, and it’s game over — no second chances.
