A downloadable game

For this 2024 RootJam, the theme was "Sacrifice". I had many ideas originally, and while they are still potentially interesting, the one "main" sacrifice feature I wanted to do took up a lot of... space. And words. Many words.

And that sacrifice idea was "sacrificing" a phase. Who else better to sacrifice a phase than some sloths? They are great at sleeping! And who else to look upon those good deeds of napping, other than the gods themselves?

Along with that, there is some sacrificing of items, to get the gods' blessings. And don't forget curses.. because what is a god without a little bit of wrath?

I would have loved to get some art going for the board, but I am a very sleepy. And I am bad at art, so that doesn't help either.

Note: This wasn't play tested. At all. I wouldn't be surprised if there is some major flaws. Or major confusion points. And probably 50 typos. But, if anyone does give it a go and notices anything, let me know and I will try to redo what I can... when I can.

Thanks to @RedBreadFrog for some idea bouncing/look overs.

Other (potentially) cool ideas that didn't make it:

Utilizing items' gray side in some way. Had the idea of putting gray items back on the item track so you can craft more. Would make this an extremely crafting heavy faction.

Having a buff deck, where you choose which buffs you want each turn.

Art Credits:

Thanks to St0l3n_ID and Vuoripeikko for the Root asset packs. And Leader Games for the other icons/etc I was able to pull.

All other design/icons/artwork/STL were done by me.
