About Godsworn
Godsworn places players in a Baltic‑mythology world where pagan deities and their tribes confront crusading forces. Divine heroes provide distinct units, buildings and upgrades, shaping each playthrough’s strategic focus.
The game offers a fully voiced campaign that can be played solo or with a partner, while an economy driven by faith links worship, resource gathering and access to mythic powers. Multiple multiplayer modes and accessibility options round out the experience.
01 / THE GUIDE
Divine Heroes and Abilities
Each divine hero comes with a personal set of abilities that expand the base faction’s units, buildings and upgrades. Selecting Saule emphasizes sunlight attacks, Meness focuses on darkness, and Michael provides archangelic smiting.
These hero‑specific options create separate playstyles, encouraging players to experiment with the different divine alignments to match their tactical preferences.
- Test each hero early to see which abilities complement your faction’s core units.
- Notice how hero upgrades interact with existing buildings for synergistic effects.
02 / THE GUIDE
Faith‑Based Economy
Followers gather at your shrine, collect resources and build cities. When they pray, they grant faith, a resource used for mythical creatures and god powers.
Workers automatically respond to globally issued tasks and, when idle, return to generating faith, making faith both an economic backbone and a strategic currency.
- Issue tasks that align with current strategic goals to keep faith flowing.
- Balance resource gathering and faith generation to avoid production stalls.

03 / THE GUIDE
Story Campaign with Co‑op
The campaign is fully voiced and designed for single‑player or cooperative play. Choosing different heroes with a partner creates unique interactions and can shift gameplay roles.
Exploring maps reveals secrets and glyphs; collected glyphs can modify heroes and factions in skirmish and challenge maps, adding variety beyond the main story.
- Discuss hero choices with your co‑op partner to maximize complementary abilities.
- Search for hidden glyphs early to broaden strategic options later.
04 / THE GUIDE
Shrine Management and Followers
Devoted followers flock to your shrine, where they gather resources and construct cities, forming the supply chain for your armies. Their safety directly impacts resource flow and faith generation.
Protecting the shrine therefore links spiritual devotion with tangible battlefield strength, making it a focal point for both defense and production.
- Prioritize defending the shrine area to maintain uninterrupted resource collection.
- Use the shrine’s location to anchor defensive structures for added security.
