erster Eindruck ist gemischt

Also erwartet hatte ich ehr ein Populus 4, jedoch nein ist es nicht. Man muss seine Gottheit, also sich selbst "aufleveln" in dem man seine Gläubigen "auflevelt". Dies geschieht durch asusführen von Wundern, über Relikte und Kämpfe. Ist echt schwer zu erklären. Wird in Zukunft noch ergänzt Fazit: Nicht was ich erwartet hatte, aber Interessanter Ansatz Spielmeschanik funktioniert bisher Einführung ist etwas schwach, aber der Umfang steigert sich langsam.

Pleasant surprise, heading the right way

I'm pleasantly surprised by this Early Access version of Godhood, although I suspect I'm able to be more positive than other reviews, simply because I started playing at a point where it's finally shaping up. News is that the developer has downsized and that only a skeleton crew remains to finish it. Buying this game is a risk then, but after playing for about a dozen hours I'm glad I did. I feel like I've gotten my money's worth and the remaining devs appear just as loyal to their product as I had hoped. As it stands now (March 2020), Godhood's closest comparison might be to Darkest Dungeon, but with more emphasis on the management aspect than hands-on squad tactics. Your goal in this game is to grow a team of religious fighters and duke it out against others for converts and resources. With these you build a city, temples and religious tenents, which function as training facilities and lasting buffs to increase the strength of your team - forming the core gameplay cycle. The trick to the game is that the battles themselves are automatic, but the fighters themselves are suprisingly complex in what they are. Not only do the statistics you build in them have a profound influence on how your fighters opt to act during battle, but you get to pick a class for them that gives them a unique role to play, and an assigned rock-paper-scissors elemental system that gives them strengths and weaknesses. I might not be able to order my shield bearer to block a blow aimed at the vulnerable healer standing next to them once in battle, but if they do, there's a tangible appreciation that I was the one to give them the wisdom and skill to do so. Another added detail is how fighters eventually grow old and die. Not only is this adorable, but along with the deep customization options, you really begin to feel attached to your guys. Though development setbacks may have tampered the game's potential, this potential is still there and I'm willing to recommend Godhood on this basis.

Highly Addictive

This game seems to get a bad rap for its obtuse mechanics. I finds that it's fine if you can put the time in and let yourself suffer a few setbacks.

VERY Alpha

Despite the four stars, I do not recommend to most people buying this game at this moment for a few reasons. First, it is VERY alpha. It is incomplete. It abruptly ends. Certain features aren't fleshed out. There are regular, game-breaking crashes (though only with a "Madness" God as far as I found). I'm a big fan of Abbey Games, and can guarantee this is going to be a fantastic game once finished. If you buy this game, you'll be supporting an awesome company in making an awesome game. You'll get to help the company in Alpha testing, and provide them with the financial support needed to make the game the best it can be. But you will NOT be buying a fun, finished game. I'M glad I bought it, because I knew why I bought it.

A nice twist on god games

If are searching for a game where can hurl lightnings and fireballs all the day, sink Atlantis or turn Sodoma into ashes, that is not Godhood. Yes, the player is a divinity of some sort, but his action are for the most indirect, in the form of hints/commands given to a small selection of disciples tasked with the conversion of pagans. And there is beauty in this approach, as much as in the "click-fests" of Populous II or mouse-mangling of Black and White: if the latters are the "RTS" of god games, Godhood, with its relaxed pace (but good rhytm), plays more like a turn-based grand strategy game. Indeed is turn-based: each turn the player is allowed to perform a number of actions, of various kind but mostly directed into strenghtening the disciples' bond and faith, before a "sacrament" (a sort of battle of wits and strenght between the selected disciples and the heathens) takes place. As in grand strategy games usually the battles are automatically solved by the AI, likewise the player is a mere observator during the sacrament, and the disciples are left alone to prove their faith. And as in grand strategy game, the whole point is not the battle itself, but how the "army" comes to be committed; under this regard Godhood does a very good job for being a rather casual game (at least, the current release), with plenty of options. Now, being the game still in development, I would like to see in the final release -interactions between the disciples (e.g. bonds and rivalries) -the possibility to try the disciples, and punish/reward them accordingly Also, feel that the balance is too much tilted toward physical damage: breaking skulls has been always an excellent argument to end a debate, but for the sake of gameplay a less "realistic" approach would not hurt. Overall, Godhood is, so far, a very nice and relaxing casual game, with the possibilty to turn into a more "serious" one in the final release and an outstanding art direction (better than a lot of AAA titles)
