The game uses a top-down village view with menu-based commands. Players can spread belief, use magic, summon natural disasters, descend to inspect the land, and capture heretics. Progress revolves around balancing protection and punishment while influencing the village’s development and the loyalty of its people. The interface emphasizes direct divine intervention rather than character control or action combat.

Characters
Strategy
Focus on maintaining faith early so your village remains stable before using harsher interventions. Use benevolent actions to build support, then apply punishments or disasters sparingly to control troublesome areas. Keep an eye on where heresy spreads and respond quickly, since neglect can reduce your influence and make later recovery harder.
