Not at all what I was expecting it to be. It's a funky team-building autobattler with very light town building (build/upgrade basic buildings to tweak minor stats and rewards). It plays a lot like a gladiator training game except it's religious 'fighters'. Not Abbey's finest work, but I had a lot of fun with it. It's still got some rough edges and a single playthrough is too long (I feel like it should be three islands, but I understand they wanted to really let you get a sense of progression). It seems like they released it a bit too soon due to financials and had to close shop before it really got to its peak. It's a shame you can see there's more potential there, but it's still a 7/10 for me. Not as good as Renowned Explorers, but better than Reus.

I love Abbey Games, first and foremost. I did steer clear of this game for a very long time, however. Got it for a good enough price on sale to finally try it out ($27 base is insanity), and see how they "went wrong". At times, the game is surely dull and unsatisfying. A handful of ideas thrown around, with minimal depth injected into them. Yet, there still exists such a magic in their game design that can be found even in what may be considered their worst. It's got a lot of DNA from multiple other games as well, though there is no inclusion substantial enough to shine and carry the game. As a side note, I did find it amusing how it resembles Umamusume: Pretty Derby, released years before. I wish I had more to say, considering my love for the team's other games. If you also like this dev team, I can recommend checking this one out on a deep discount. You still find those satisfying strategy-game diamonds in the rough. That being said, I feel way happier supporting Reus 2 through DLCs than I did buying this game.

I really like this game and go back to it for a few hours every once in a blue moon. Definitely not going everyone's cup of tea as you really don't have a lot of direct options to work with and you won't have a lot of direct control of the ongoings. If you don't like more idle games, you will find it very boring, but if you enjoy games where you make small decisions and see how they pan out over time? Definitely fun. Get it on sale though, it's more a $15 game imo.

Tactical game, you choose the traditions and tenets of your religion, those give you economical or combat boni. You choose which stats get stronger through your rituals, so you can win against other religions either by force or by convincing (though both "look" like you hit them over the head) in a stand-off. There are many different classes you can choose for your disciples. The fight is automated and you influence it only in the preparation (short-term buffs) and choosing your fighters, rituals, tenets, etc. I do not understand why some people claim you "don't do anything" in the game, that is not true. Time only passes when you do things, make decisions, etc. It's just not a hack and slash or an x-com fight style. Everything is tactical, very few things involve luck. Some say the stats are presented poorly, maybe that are old reviews but I found everything I wanted to know pretty easily. The only thing I would wish for is one screen with (defense-)stats of ALL your disciples on one page. But with the frequent updates maybe that will be added, too. My first playthrough took almost 20 hours but there where quite a few things to learn Starting now on the 2nd religion type. There are 7 (war, peace, pleasure, purity, greed, generosity, madness). Even the same one can be very different, when choosing other tenets or using different classes of disciples.

Pleasantly surprised by this game, I had read some disappointing reviews but I find myself hooked. I think the main issue is when people think this will be a god game, as in god gameplay like the good ole black and white or something similar, whereas this is really just a god *themed* game, I would describe it as more of a light base building, mid stat raising and strategy game. I enjoy the slight variations is style and strategy you can choose throughout each playthrough (my first was at medium difficulty as a peaceful conversion god, and my second that I am currently in is a physical violence war god). It's enjoyable game that isn't difficult to learn but is engaging enough to keep me distracted from real life (as is my goal with game playing).
