In God's Playground, you'll take on the role of a Polish magnate, navigating the complexities of medieval politics and warfare. Set in 15th to 18th century Poland, the game draws inspiration from Norman Davies' book of the same name.

With a playtime of 180 minutes, God's Playground is a game that requires strategy and negotiation, as you work to defend Poland against historical foes whose strength ebbs and flows over time. Designed by Martin Wallace, the game's intricate rules and mechanics, including area majority, auction, and dice rolling, make for a challenging and engaging experience for 3 players. While the rules may take some time to learn, the end result is a rich and immersive game that's sure to appeal to fans of medieval and Renaissance-era history.
