A covenant is more than a castle. It is a community, a legacy, and a story that spans generations.
Covenantum is a seasonal covenant-management strategy game inspired by the tabletop role-playing game Ars Magica by Atlas. Lead a fledgling covenant of magi, companions, and grogs through decades of magical research, political intrigue, supernatural mysteries, and Tribunal politics. Every season brings new opportunities and dangers as you guide your covenant from uncertain beginnings toward legendary status.
Assign seasonal activities, manage resources, pursue magical knowledge, negotiate alliances, explore forgotten places, and respond to the countless challenges that threaten your people. The choices you make today may shape your saga for years to come.
BUILD A LEGENDARY COVENANT
Manage food supplies, finances, vis stores, morale, loyalty, security, infrastructure, libraries, laboratories, alliances, and magical resources. Expand your influence through diplomacy, trade, exploration, and careful planning.
PLAN EVERY SEASON
Assign Magi, Companions, and Grogs to activities that shape the future of the covenant. Study ancient texts, invent spells, improve laboratories, gather intelligence, train specialists, establish alliances, search for resources, or embark on dangerous adventures.
SHAPE YOUR OWN SAGA
Discover story leads, pursue rumors, investigate mysteries, resolve crises, and navigate the consequences of past decisions. Choices can create new opportunities, awaken old threats, strengthen friendships, or spark rivalries that endure for decades.
NAVIGATE HERMETIC POLITICS
The political landscape evolves alongside your covenant's growing reputation and influence. Build relationships with neighboring covenants, influence political affairs, gather intelligence, and defend your interests against those who would challenge them.
DEVELOP YOUR MAGI
Conduct magical research, invent spells, pursue mysteries, manage apprentices, bond familiars, and face the risks of warping and Twilight. The twelve Hermetic Houses each offer distinct opportunities and identities that help shape the future of your covenant.
EXPLORE A WORLD OF MYTH AND MAGIC
Ancient ruins, forgotten regios, supernatural creatures, hidden vis sources, faerie bargains, and dangerous mysteries await discovery. Success may bring knowledge, allies, and wealth. Failure may unleash consequences that echo throughout the years.
