Demigod is a very interesting new game, produced by "Gas powered games". The people who brought you games like "Space Siege" , "Supreme Commander" and "Dungeon Siege".
Demigod has a variety of new concepts and ideas that you cannot find in a lot of games. You choose from one of eight hero characters called demigods, And through a tournament you and your fellow worshipers must battle the other gods to become the One true god.
The tournament is fast and furious.The tournament consists of 8 rounds, Each having 2 sides. The dark side and the light side. After each round the gods change teams such that it is likely that your teammates in the current round would be your opponents in the next round.
The tournament it self is fast, fun and requires a lot of quick thinking. After each round each god gets points allocated to them. The number of points earned depends on the achievements made during that round. From capturing critical points to buffing up your god with items each round in the tournament can be a lot of fun. But alas this fun doesn't last long, with each round ending up in about 20 minutes and the entire tournament only having 8 rounds you can play through the entire game within a matter of hours. Having said that Demigod offers decent reply value as all the gods have different abilities and attributes.
The Bottom line
Although its more or less classified as a RTS game, Demigod dishes out a more of a arcade gaming experience and is likely to appeal fans of both arcade style gaming and RTS based gaming.
