TURN-BASED TERRITORY STRATEGY

Pact or Peril is a free-to-play strategy game for 1–8 players. Deploy armies, capture territories, control regions, collect cards, and form pacts with other players.

Play alone against bots or compete online in Casual and Ranked matches.

COMBAT

Choose how many dice to roll during each attack or use Full Send to resolve the entire battle automatically.

Calculated Dice mode provides exact conquest odds and lets you choose how many armies to commit. Classic Dice mode keeps every combat round fully random.

PACT SYSTEM

Players can form private pacts and exchange preset strategy messages.

Pacts do not prevent attacks. Either player can break or ignore the agreement at any time.

THREE WIN CONDITIONS

World Domination — Conquer the map or become the last surviving side.
Capital Conquest— Capture and hold every player’s capital.
King of the Hill — Control the Hill and earn enough points to win.

Matches support free-for-all, 1v1, and team formats.

GAME SECURITY AND FAIR PLAY

Online gameplay uses dedicated server authority. Army placement, combat, captures, cards, fortification, pacts, and victory conditions are validated by the server.

Fogged territory information is withheld from opposing clients instead of only being covered by the interface.

Online matches also include reconnect support, bot takeover for disconnected players, inactivity safeguards, and mute, block, and report tools.

REPLAYS AND BATTLE ANALYSIS

Completed matches can be saved as action-based replays.

Replay tools include:

Pause, playback speed, and timeline controls
Player point-of-view and omniscient viewing
Turn-by-turn event feed
Cloud replay storage
Six-character replay sharing codes

Battle Analysis charts show how army strength, territory control, cards, and eliminations changed during the match. In replay analysis, chart points can be used to jump to important moments.
