📖 About This Game

In this game for 2 to 8 players, each player takes on the persona and idiosyncrasies of one of the major Greek gods, and attempts to control the actions of the many and varied Greek heroes and monsters of the then-known world. The random events and Fates have the same sort of impact on play as they do in Kingmaker (some might say in Real Life), but some pre-planning is possible, and bad luck with one hero shouldn't ruin your entire day ... they - can - come back from the dead too.
