You are tasked with guiding your chosen people to victory against other gods in a battle of wits and conquest. To emerge victorious, you must help your followers thrive by shaping the landscape to their advantage.

Each game begins with a single human, dropped into an uncertain world. Your goal is to create habitable land for them to settle on, using your powers to modify the terrain. As your followers grow in numbers, so too will your influence over the world – and over others.

The leader of your people becomes a powerful force when you transform him into a hero. He will then embark on a perilous journey to confront his enemies, seeking to vanquish them through holy war. The outcome is far from certain, as both sides will stop at nothing to emerge victorious.

But your followers are not the only ones at your disposal. You have access to more sinister tools, including the power to drown your enemies with a mere thought, submerge their towns in treacherous swamps, or unleash volcanic fury upon their most fertile lands. And if all else fails, you can unleash a devastating flood that will leave few survivors.

Ultimately, the goal is simple: conquer as many worlds as possible and cement your dominance over the realm of the gods. With each victory, new challenges await – and the struggle for supremacy never truly ends.
