As one of the first books from CoG for me, I played "Champion of the Gods" a forever ago (back when there were only 2 gender and 3 sexuality options for the MC, that's how long ago that was!). Liked it, despite it's quirks, a lot (I used to like Greek mythology as a child), had an established god-loving hero for my personal canon, gave the 1st book a replay for a save, so when this came out, I'd already freshened up on how the author's logic and the rules of the setting work, so a lot of the things that other players complained about, I wasn't surprised (or upset) by. That out of the way, the plot of this one was unexpected, but I ended up liking the adventure. It was interesting to see how rules that gods from a different pantheon impose in their realm work. The new companion (and potential love interest) was mildly annoying, mostly due to our different worldview, but we got along fine. I WAS, however, very upset that the MC got separated from their love from the 1st book for the duration of the quest. A single dream-date didn't help much. And with the new, younger chap being right there in my face and the game teasing me with a possibility to commit adultery. Thanks, but no thank…2 found this helpful
Definitely worth your time if you're into choose your own adventure stories. I feel for the most complete experience you can transfer a save from the original Champion of the Gods into this new episode of the story and my version [spoiler] (where I secretly betrayed the gods in the first episode to weaken them, and then suddenly betrayed them at their weakest hour. I felt like a supervillain waiting years for that moment) [/spoiler] has definitely been one of my favorite experiences playing a choice based game. The amount of variety and personality you can give your protagonist is astoundingly impressive. I made them a sly, yet noble villain by the end of my first playthrough and it was awesome.1 found this helpful
I loved the first game and as soon as I found out there was a sequel, I bought it and was not disappointed. I liked having the option to export files from the prequel and continue with my characters.1 found this helpful
Even better than the first one. Big incentive to replay and try different paths. A true Greek Tragedy. EDIT: (implied spoilers) I replayed it, knowing now how things will unfold, I went for a less tragic outcome and am pleased to report that it exists! I'm glad though, that my first run ended in tragedy, for it gave me a huge incentive to replay. The game's been well worth it's money.
+1
An interesting sequel to Champion of the Gods. Give it a play, you might be pleasantly surprised.
