The Whims of the Gods takes the well-known perspective of being a god in a city-builder game and adds a fresh, modern twist to it. The gameplay is built around the cooperation of two player-controlled rulers, each having the freedom to choose their duties in a thriving, ancient city. Regardless of their chosen role, objectives and goals will be common e.g. increasing the population or developing certain technologies. The game will offer both online co-op.

The Whims of the Gods will be available for playtesting at Gamescom (Hall 10.2, booth E-069) and PAX West (at Fundacja Indie Games Polska booth, next to the PAX Rising Showcase).

“We’d like to thank all players who already wishlisted The Whims of the Gods. The initial reaction to our announcement was great and we found that many players miss godlike strategy games. We ourselves grew up on titles like Populus or Black and White. We can’t wait to hear more feedback from gamers at Gamescom and PAX - so if you are in Cologne or Seattle, come and receive your godly tribute!” - says Mikolaj Pawlowski, CEO of PJ Games.
