Our take on Please The Gods
Its defining mechanic is dice-based combat in which enemy dice can be swapped, destroyed, or manipulated, making encounters revolve around changing the roll structure rather than only selecting conventional attacks.
What is Please The Gods?
Please The Gods is a turn-based, old-school fantasy RPG set in a Finnish mythological world.
A starving family provides the motivation for a journey to find the Sampo, a legendary source of riches and nourishment. Combat uses dice that can be swapped, destroyed, or manipulated, while a skill tree covers Hunting, Survival, Lore, and a companion dog. Exploration includes hunting, fishing, and foraging in harsh Nordic wilderness. Quests for the pagan Gods Ahti, Tapio, and Nyyrikki shape the journey, alongside encounters with creatures such as the Water Hag and the Restless Dead.
