Pilgrim's Path by JakJak

Welcome to PP Game! Lead your followers on a pilgrimage, seize faith houses, gather faith points, summon gods, and strategically sacrifice souls for powerful cards in this light real-time strategy.
Left click and drag to select your orange units. Left click on houses to move your units. Zoom in/out with scroll wheel. Capture faith houses which generate faith points. Faith points are used to summon the god and unlock cards.
Sacrifice pilgrims at the sacrificial altar to gain souls. Activate cards with souls. Bugs:
Sometimes pilgrims don't path to a house, try sending them to a different house and then re-send them on the initial path.
Sometimes you can't select or move any units. The only solution is to restart the game or win without any inputs as your pilgrims automatically collect faith.

Edit: I totally didn't realise there were more levels. I get to keep playing! The sacrifice cards are great too, fun choices and weighing up if its worth sacrificing dudes for em
* proceed to restart *
Feels pretty polished, well done! :D
Struggled to send my pilgrims out sometimes, wasn't clear when they are available to move, and clicking de-selects them. It was easy to get into a spiral of clicking a pilgrim, trying to send it out, failing because it was occupied, and then trying again and again.
Recommend a simpler level to start with, perhaps only a couple houses to take over and no summoning; let us learn how the pilgrims operate without time pressure, then reveal mechanics one level at a time.
Great work, congratulations!
Overall, the game is a lot of fun. The enemy is kind of a pushover, he managed to beat me only when I encountered a bug and couldn't select anyone.
There is almost no in-game text, but the description on the web page is quite detailed, so I had no trouble with figuring out how to play.
Great job! Good luck with your future projects!
I committed mass suicide in the end. Am I bad? Did I win? :)
Anyway, thank you for the game!
The music and sound effects added so much to the atmosphere. Pretty smooth unit selection and navigation made the game enjoyable to play.
Really well done, good job!
