A promising concept, charming lo-fi aesthetics and a lot of meters. Unfortunately the core mechanic lacks depth, which makes the overall experience unengaging and tedious after a short while.

👎 i like the premise and style, but this game is just not playable. you are juggling equally weighted priorities and there's no path to successfully navigate. figuring out i didn't need to select all 3 advisors each time seemingly was the key to being able to course correct to restore balance, but no... this game is just a tug of war with your stupid god and your stupid god hates you.
edit: so my negative review still stands, but i did mess around with the game enough to learn most of what breaks the gameplay comes from the current version with the Sunken Sins DLC automatically included. there's a post on how to revert to the original build on the discussion page. i wish it made the game fun, but it did make the gameplay a bit more manageable.
edit: yeah, the original version is significantly better. negative review stands though. as another review mentioned, by the time you master how to successfully complete the game it's stupid to back and fail in a specific ways to unlock achievements. the developers had some ideas, but must have not done any playtesting to recognize they built RNG garbage. it's unfortunate because the art and music is great. why the DLC got grafted onto this, making everything worse, is just infuriating.
