Neither King Nor God is a game of ruthless ambition set in Renaissance Europe, where loyalty is bought, faith is weaponized, and every alliance is temporary. You lead one of four great powers – England, France, the Papacy, or the Holy Roman Empire – each with unique strengths, objectives, and a web of overlapping ambitions.
At the heart of the game is the hidden Courtiers system. Each turn, you secretly send your agents – generals, admirals, merchants, bishops, spies, assassins, and more – to key centers of Europe. They are revealed in unpredictable order, creating moments of sudden advantage, desperate improvisation, or well-laid plans coming to fruition. Courtiers can command armies, convert cities, dominate markets, or sabotage your rivals, all while pursuing your own path to victory.
