Skip it if you…
Saves you a refund- Players seeking a conventional army-focused strategy game may find the emphasis on worship, faith, and divine abilities too specialized

Our take on Anthropomachy
Its deity-focused design trades conventional military breadth for a narrower system built around worship, skepticism, faith, and myth-based abilities. The setting and mechanics stay tied to managing divine influence rather than covering every type of empire-building activity.
What is Anthropomachy?
Anthropomachy is a strategy simulation about restoring the influence of Greek gods over a skeptical modern humanity.
Players choose a god, develop divine traits, construct temples, convert territories, and gather worshipers. The game models 71 territories with statistics based on real-world counterparts, including other religious presences. Events occur in real time and can provide bonuses or increase skepticism. More than 250 abilities draw on myths associated with the selected god. Faith can be spent on acquiring abilities, improving traits, and recruiting a minor god whose effects can influence attributes beyond those of the chosen god.
