Sneak-peek Update #5: Martyrs and Fervor
Think your Disciples can convert any who oppose you? Why not convert more by making your Disciples suffer for the righteous cause! Give the enemy a head-start by jeering and striking your Disciples down, and then impress them with a biblical comeback!
This way, you can increase the risk you take. The wise will know exactly when they're asking too much of their disciples, and when their devotion will be rewarded. Our design goals with Martyrs is to reward player's insight, and allow you to take more risks for greater rewards. It also makes the Sacraments a bit quicker.
A problem we found was that some player got stuck in a loop of losing and being broken. To address this, we changed carry-over HP into Fervor. Doing a Mission will cost you Fervor, and being low on Fervor is not good for a Disciple. Fervor automatically regenerates when a Disciple stays home, but old Disciples will have less Fervor!
Together with some other smaller changes to the coming of age, we want to give you a more smooth experience. It will make all players think more about their team composition, avoiding new players to be blindsided by high healing costs and aging disciples. It also makes losing physical battles equally jarring for your planning as morale Sacraments. That wraps this sneak-peek up. We also have more content and some thematical upgrades in the pipeline. We can't wait to show them! We're happy with the reception for "Newfound Shores", and are looking to bring you more Godhood! - Greetings from the Monks

Create your in strategy god game Godhood. Decide virtues and vices. Inspire construction of great temples, ready for rituals in your honor. Guide and develop your faithful disciples in turn-based conflict to convert worshippers away from rival gods. Become the most powerful god of all!
Key Features
- Create your own religion: From peaceful meditative monks to savage warrior-priests drenched in the blood of human sacrifice, mix and match dozens of religious dogmas to shape your worshippers' morality!
- Guide your disciples: Disciples are the heroes of your religion and they require your guidance: choose their class and level up their abilities to create your perfect team of mighty missionaries.
- Manage your holy site: Your worshippers expand your holy site with new temples and buildings based on the religion you’ve created. Use these to collect resources or power up your disciples even further.
- Indirect control: Your disciples have strong personalities and a mind of their own. Use divine inspiration and godly intervention to guide them, but take heed, their faith in you affects the potency of your influence.
- Turn-based Ritual Combat: Face other religions in turn-based ritual combat called Sacraments. Use awe, persuasion, brute force or even flirtation to defeat and convert their worshippers.
- A relaxing mythical world: Vibrant hand-painted art and relaxing tunes bring you into Godhood’s world of devoted worship and mythical heroes.
- Replayability: Experiment with dozens of different combinations of religious commandments, virtues, tenets, disciple classes, and holy relics. Try two game modes: become the greatest god of all before the age of myth ends, or take it easy in a timeless story mode.
