Peter Molyneux’s Kickstarted god game Godus launches on iOS for free

The man that originally made his name thanks to god games now brings one to iOS devices with Godus, which is now on the iTunes App Store as a free-to-play title — even though it first debuted as a Kickstarter game.

“In Godus your hands will sculpt the mountains and carve rivers,” Molyneux says in a press release sent to GamesBeat. “Your touch will create pastures for your people. You will be loved by tiny worshipers that need your help to grow and your direction to progress through the ages of civilization. Power comes to you through influence, and your miracles guide the forces of nature. You must decide whether to use such awesome power for good or ill. As you progress through the game you will find history hidden in the land through mysterious artefacts that uncover the true story behind your Followers. By journeying to far off lands to complete quests, you will bring back powerful abilities for your ever-gracious people. I’m fascinated to see how players wield such powers on mobile.”
