CREATE A RELIGION THAT WILL CHANGE THE WORLD

From your first believer to millions of devoted followers — every decision you make will forever alter the fate of humanity.

DESIGN THE FAITH THEY WILL WORSHIP

Build your religion from the ground up. Define dogma, create rituals, forge sacred symbols, and shape reality through the actions of your followers. Will your faith be enlightened and merciful, or ruthless and despotic? Every choice writes itself into the DNA of your cult- into history, into people, and into the hearts of your believers. Your belief system can be mysterious and open to interpretation… or unyielding as stone, refusing compromise. Your religion lives - and the world reacts to every decision you make.

TAKE CONTROL OF THE MASSES

Recruit followers through preaching, charity, or manipulation. Build temples, train prophets, control the media, and orchestrate rituals that move crowds. But remember - authority is easy to win, hard to keep. One scandal. One exposed lie. One dead follower — and your empire of faith can turn to dust. People are unpredictable. Your religion? Even more so.

FACE THE IMPOSSIBLE CHOICES

The dynamic event system knows no “happy ending,” and every decision carries both benefits and costs. Economic collapse? Decide: the community’s poverty or spiritual growth forged through exploitation. Internal schism? Keep liberals and orthodox factions in balance before they tear each other apart. A natural disaster tests your faith - what will you and your followers do when the world says, “prove it”? Every choice has consequences. Some are simply better hidden.

FROM LOCAL CULT TO GLOBAL DOMINATION

Start in a single city, then expand your influence across nations. Every region has different traditions, politics, and resistance to change. Some countries will embrace your faith. Others will fight it. A few will try to co-opt it for their own ends. Will you adapt your doctrine - or remain unbending? The choice, and the burden, is yours.

COMMAND EVERY ASPECT OF YOUR CULT

Develop a skill tree with three paths: ENLIGHTENMENT, MATERIALISM, and… EXTINCTION.

Choose your strategy, define your leadership style, and shape the world by your rules. Will your religion bring salvation… or ignite a new era of (bloody) fanaticism?

THE POWERFUL DON’T USE MONEY - FAITH IS YOUR CURRENCY

The powerful don’t trade in cash. They trade in faith, influence, and obedience. Wealth is measured in followers, authority, connections, and reputation - volatile resources that rise and fall with every decision you make. Instead of hoarding coins, you leverage devotion: volunteers build your temples, loyalists secure favors, insiders divert supplies, and fear or charity bend officials to your will. 

This design enforces meaningful scarcity (population limits, shifting morality, waning legitimacy) and removes the comfort of infinite credits - you must constantly earn obedience, protect trust, and manage political ties.
