Godlike

Overview

Long ago, the Gods created pillars to hold up the sky. However, as the faith of the people wavered, these pillars began to fell into disrepair. You, playing as a leader of a small village, have been entrusted with the power of the God of the Hunt to stop your local pillar from collapsing and the sky from falling. To prevent utter destruction of your village, you must donate food to the Pillar. However, only the faithful will prevail, and the God of the Hunt will no longer lend their power if the village doesn't offer tribute. Will you be able to stop the sky from falling?

Godlike is a single-player deck-building game that borrows elements from well known titles like  Dominion and Slay the Spire. The game offers a quick 24-turn experience that is packed with resource management, intense choices, a variety of cards to build from, and thoughtful strategy.

Objective

To win the game,  you must donate at least 30 food to the Pillar by the end of the last turn. Just be careful, donating too quickly without building a deck can lead to inefficiencies and not donating will absolutely lead to the village's destruction.
