What is oath?
You return to a town you once lived in and meet someone you tried to forget in this single-player narrative RPG. The six short, mostly linear acts switch between top-down exploration and visual novel scenes. Completing the story and replaying unlocks a longer epilogue where you explore three towns, talk to characters, complete quests, fish, and sing karaoke.
For you if...
- +you like abstract stories about guilt, loss, and regret
- +you enjoy discovering secrets and keeping track of side quests
Not for you if...
- −you want a main story shaped by branching choices
