Learn about the Oracle wonder in Sid Meier’s Civilization VII, costing 300 resources and available since Mysticism.
The Oracle increases the effect of temples, but this effect is canceled if the 'Religion' civic is researched. Players often find that 'Religion' becomes available in the expertise menu before they have a chance to utilize the Oracle. This is particularly true if you delay building temples until after changing governments, and only change governments after researching 'Industrial' and 'Mass Prod,' which are typically acquired much later than 'Religion.' Consequently, the Oracle is a wonder with a short effective window.
- Consider the timing of your 'Religion' research relative to your desire to build temples to maximize the Oracle's benefit.
- The Oracle's bonus is negated by researching 'Religion,' so plan your technology path accordingly.
