About the game

What you do in a play session

If you thought Flick of Faith was already a delightful divine mess, get ready for total chaos with the Cataclysm expansion! The Archipelago of the Navel of the World has become too small for all these deities trying to prove who is the boss. Now, the fight gets an extra kick with the arrival of the Mayan gods, who definitely didn't come to play. The big news here are the Cataclysms, which turn the board into a truly unpredictable battlefield, forcing you to adjust your aim and strategy every single round. Furthermore, the introduction of Shamans brings a new layer of area control: it's not enough to just flick well; you need to position your followers intelligently to convert believers and ensure your pantheon's supremacy. With the addition of a fifth player, games become even more frantic and competitive, ensuring no one is left sitting out. You'll also find new Law cards that can be mixed into the base game, offering absurd replayability and new challenges for those who have already mastered the original game's tricks. It's the kind of expansion that doesn't just increase the content, but elevates the gameplay experience, making matches more tactical without losing focus on the chaotic fun of flicking. If you enjoy fast-paced games where manual dexterity meets strategic planning and a massive dose of player interaction, Cataclysm is a must-have. Prepare your fingers, take a deep breath, and show that your god is, in fact, the only one worthy of worship in this insane archipelago!
