In this mini-series we are going to do a deeper dive into all of the enemies that you can face playing as each god, starting with Cernunnos, the Celtic god of nature. The enemies that invade the isles varies per god and they are themed around both mythological and real enemies that their civilisations would have faced.
Viking raider
- The isles of Scotland and Ireland often faced raids from Vikings from the 8th through 13th centuries and these mean customers mean to pillage your gold if you dont stop them.
- Attacks gold sources unless your shrine is closer
Saxon raider
- Vikings werent the only problem that the isles of Scotland and Ireland were facing with Saxons also invading from the 7th 10th centuries
- Attacks food sources unless your shrine is closer
Blight witch
- A common myth throughout the histories, this witch is rumoured to plague livestock, corrupt crops and bring famine wherever they go
- Attacks food sources unless your shrine is closer (attacks in an AOE)
Sluagh
- These mythological creatures were said to be the hosts of the unforgiven dead in Irish and Scottish folklore that would terrorise locals by dropping them from heights or transporting them to other islands.
- Attacks housing unless your shrine is closer
Banshee
- Irish and Scottish folklore wailing at night was believed to foretell the death of a member of the family of the person who heard the spirit. In These Doomed Isles banshees dont just foretell, they can also bring down devastation as well.
- Attacks housing unless your shrine is closer

Inspired by classic god games, survival city-builders and roguelike deck-builders, in These Doomed Isles you'll craft your deck of cards to raise islands from the sea, build settlements for your followers and keep them alive as famine threatens, forests burn and raiders loom on the horizon.
Create life from nothing. Craft a deck of cards to create land and place forests, rivers, mountains and more. Bring the world to life with powerful cards, relics and miracles.
Build settlements for your followers. Build homes for your followers, carefully manage their requirements and give them the tools they need to exploit the environment you've created.
Harvest cards to craft the deck you want. Manage the cards in your deck to ensure you can thrive (or, at the very least, survive) until the next harvest. Build your deck any way you want to find different solutions to the challenges that you'll face.
Will you survive these doomed isles? You'll face increasing challenges as natural disasters scar your land and waves of raiders and mythical sea monsters attack from beyond the horizon. Learn from your failures and try a different strategy every time that you play.
