If I had bought this game for the full price, I would have been dissappointed given that half of the book is just a copy of Tiny Dungeons. That said, Tiny Dungeons is a really solid rpg so if you are interested, check it out! This one has some interesting ideas on how to create a world. The ideas could have been fleshed out more. I'm not sure if the world creation rules here would appeal to typical Tiny Dungeons players but I think they are interesting enough that I might just try them out.

Meanwhile, the Demi-gods creation rules are half the Tiny Dungeon character creation + some interesting ideas tacked on top. The most interesting of which are Conviction points that allows a Demi-god to do things like defeat a single foe "a single dragon" or a large group of weak foes, or various other demi-god actions. What makes these points thematic is how demi-gods can earn these points.

"When mortals see you spend conviction on a Godly Feat", the demi-god player rolls at Disadvantage to see if the followers give them more conviction. Even more thematic is that each Demi-god has a "Binding" such as Love, Art, Vengeance, etc. and whenever the demi-god does something to suppor their binding, they gain Conviction (until they hit their max).

So, all in all, I'd say 3 stars but I gave it 1 start bump up for 90% off.

like all of gallant knight games products this is a solid game with simple but engaging game mechanics

Although I was skeptical when I first picked up Tiny Gods, I've really been enjoying it immensely. The Setting Creation mini-game in particular is truly epic.

In most RPGs, there's no link between player characters and cosmology. But since the players start out as gods creating the world, you have the potential for this wonderful connection. And that's exactly the way it's been working in our game. It's been one of the richest roleplaying experiences of my life. Even the failures are glorious and mythic. Just plain FUN!

And any of us now acting as deities (including the nominal GM) could easily act as a GM in the second part of the game. So all of us are basically preparing to be a GM in this world, a world that each of knows intimately because we helped make it.

It's been so much fun making Terresine. I can't wait to play here! Thanks, Tiny Gods. :)
