About the game
How do you balance -- and indeed encourage -- a war between factions without letting either side obliterate the other? How do you rule over gods, creatures, and men who refuse to obey you? How do you build a landscape of villages when bandits and mythology are conspiring to tear it down?

The value story
Across all 107 discounts in the 13 years tracked, the median cut is 75 percent, about 5 weeks apart. Today's $1.24 at 75 percent off still sits 25 percent above the floor, so a deeper cut exists in its history.

Some have said that the main problem is a...

If being a God is like this game, it's pretty lame. Let's be honest: it's not the worst game ever, it's a game that is just average in everything. The graphics are pretty simple, and I understand that top notch graphics aren't required to a game be any good, but the lack of things like character animation make this title looks worst than most of f2p cell phone games. The objective is very inovative and distinctive...
