Sainthood

Very chill game, some of the upgrades are somewhat expensive for getting it, you'll have to choose the best provisions to figure out how to maximize benefits. You'll probably have a better second run vs the 1st

A cozy gem of a game with a relaxing, but still challenging, time and resource management system; lovely music and visuals; and lots of interesting history about African culture, Catholic tradition, and saints.

Great little game. It's a time management game at the core, but its themes, writing, and subject matter are all faithfully drawn from Christian/Catholic domain. The mechanics are simple, straightforward, and make you feel like you have impactful choices. I also appreciated the bits of African history and culture, this made you feel like a character that actually could exist somewhere, instead of just an artistic projection. Also, getting the "bad" ending on my first playthrough tore me a new one, so I'm thinking about how to fix it for next time.

This game is a great task management style game with fun Catholic faith based history. This is a fun easy going game from a cool indy creator. My first play through I failed the task of helping the community. can you do better?

Personally I do love the cozy atmosphere of the games, characters and little fun facts you can discover and unlock through the game but mechanically the game falls very flat especially in the religious aspect. The concept is to become a saint and to do this you need to max both your faith and charity points and this is sadly very poorly executed because it is very easy to become a saint by focusing completely on charity by helping the other characters while completely ignoring the faith aspect of it. Instead of praying or attending mass all you have to do is equip and upgrade an item that grants faith and once that is maxed out then you never have to pray or attend mass ever again which is how my second run went. Instead of trying to balance both I used an item to focus solely on charity work which as a Catholic is very disappointing. To become a saint is hard and personally I think if they found a way to balance both faith and works so one is required to engage in both aspects and perhaps in a certain pattern one can follow to achieve sainthood it could work but otherwise it doesn’t make sense in the Catholic faith to focus solely on works of charity and neglect your faith to achieve sainthood.

Great game to pass the time. Got a few hours of enjoyment out of it.

It's cute and I appreciate the amount of time it takes to create a game of any kind, and the love that must have gone into this. It's just...boring. I played it for 30 minutes and already was frustrated and bored by how little complexity or strategy there is to it.
