The Oracle is an adventure map structure in Heroes of Might and Magic IV. Similarly to the obelisk in previous games, it revevals pieces of the puzzle map, and visiting all the oracles of a specific color in a scenario will reveal the location of a buried treasure.
The treasure in Heroes IV is not always an artifact, like in Heroes I and II, or a grail, like in Heroes III, but may be either a grail, an artifact, or resources.
Oracles of different colors can show up in the same scenario, leading the way to different treasures. There are twelve different colors for oracles: gold, bronze, silver, white, brown, orange, yellow, blue, green, purple, red, and black.
