Aerosoft is best known for its catalogue of simulation titles, ranging from truck driving to urban management, so seeing them publish Fata Deum – The God Sim feels like a surprising departure. Developed by 42 Bits Entertainment, the game taps into a genre that once thrived with classics like Black & White but has been largely dormant for the past two decades. It’s an attempt to rekindle the spirit of being an omnipotent entity while giving players the freedom to rule with benevolence, cruelty, or somewhere in between – and it’s out now in Early Access.
