Tradeoff: The reliance on trial-and-error dialogue matching and fetch-quest structure can occasionally stall puzzle momentum.

What you are walking into
Way up high on a mountaintop sits the Grove, a realm peacefully inhabited by charismatic deities and their devoted human worshippers. That was, until the pantheon's King began spreading insults and disinformation. Now the gods and their followers have devolved into bickering and fighting! In Great God Grove, players assume the role of Godpoke, the mail carrier for this fractured pantheon. Creatively deliver messages and set the story straight... before the apocalypse consumes us all!
