Underwhelming
I bought this game because another reviewer compared it to Civilization, and I thought it'd be a neat spin on building an empire. Nothing could be further from what this game actually is. Upon starting a new game, you get to design the look and feel of the Diety you are wanting to be. That is 90% of the freedom of choice given to you by this game. Your city placements are all done for you, and you have linear movements to adjacent cities you conquer to progress. You can have up to 7 apostles spreading word of yourself. While you can have 7, you can only ask 3 to do things on any given turn. So 4 people are just standing around doing nothing. I thought this # would increase as you go further in, but it's static the entire time. The game starts you off with 3, which you use to do the battles. You add more to your recruitment pool every 20 days. While they can't die, I certainly found myself passing dead turns to be able to recruit more upgraded people because the starting units are quickly power creeped. There are basically 2 kinds of attacks in the game, physical or magical. And there's a defender for each type. There are also 6 "attributes" that are both strong and weak against another. You cannot control any of your people during the fight, so the most control you have over them is at the time of choosing their class, determining if they're physical or magical, and what attribute they'll have. Overall, 80% of the game is watching these little mini battles that you have no control over, hoping your people do well. Sometimes they do, sometimes they don't. They don't 'die' but they lose faith if their HP reaches 0, which means you can't have them do anything for several turns. Also, they age. As they get older, they lose some power. This encourages you to cycle your apostles (again tied to recruiting every 20 days). You can later train what abilities they have, but not what they use in combat, as it will pick any of them to use any given turn.
