In Chronicles of Paldon, each player acts as an inventor with their own workshop located in the city of Paldon. The task is to rebuild the city’s machinery, which has malfunctioned due to the catastrophe. The machinery consists of a few major City Constructions and a large number of small machines.

To complete the task, players must carefully plan how to use their turns and apprentices to gather the necessary resources and skills, as well as how to best utilize the machines they have built. Machines can be sold for money or used to upgrade the workshop, but they can also be provided to factions in exchange for renown, with the amount of renown depending on the faction's influence. It's crucial to keep an eye on what the other players are doing, as their actions can directly impact each player´s strategy and success.

Renown points can be received in different ways, but mainly when building City Constructions and for the faction support (providing of machines) made during the game. The winner is the player with the most renown points at game end.

In the solo game, set before the catastrophic event, the player’s task is to destroy the machine responsible for the catastrophe before it ruins the city’s machinery.
