Our take on Godhood
Its defining structure is religion management tied to turn-based auto-battler rituals, with disciple development and rival-follower conversion forming the central cycle.
What is Godhood?
Godhood puts players in charge of founding a faith, developing its followers, and directing missionaries against competing deities.
Moral beliefs and customs influence worshippers, while each disciple’s role and skills shape the group sent into battle. Rival faiths clash in sacraments, structured encounters where persuasion, physical strength, or romantic appeal can overcome enemy prophets and win converts. Gathered tribute funds temples and additional structures at a sacred base. These buildings unlock rituals that strengthen disciples, improve revenue, or expand available choices. The game presents a painted Meso-American mythological world with calming music. Religious rules, customs, character roles, and relics can be combined in different ways.
