About the game

What you do in a play session

If you are already a fan of Flick of Faith and want to spice up your game nights, the Enki God Promo expansion is that extra flavor you didn't know you needed. Originally released as part of the 2022 Dice Tower Kickstarter pack, this small addition brings the god Enki to the table, offering a level of strategic versatility that can turn the game on its head.

The beauty of Enki lies in his adaptability. He doesn't just play with his own components; his power allows you to utilize Prophets and Temples from any other god not currently in play. This creates a fascinating dynamic where you need to keep an eye on what is available and figure out how to weave those elements into your plan for island domination.

Beyond the flexibility of using opponents' resources, Enki brings a specific board manipulation ability. At the end of the Mission Phase, you have the option to remove two of your Prophets currently in the Sea to place one of your Temples anywhere on the map, regardless of the island. It is that perfect "I arrived and conquered" tactical move that can secure precious points or ruin your opponents' plans at the very last second.

Since this is a character-focused expansion, it doesn't drastically change the core dexterity rules that make Flick of Faith so fun, but it adds a layer of decision-making that will please players who like to think a bit more before they flick. It is ideal for those who have already mastered the base game and want to test new combinations of divine powers. If you enjoy flexibility and having extra tools to secure a win, Enki is a great choice to refresh your sessions. Just remember that, like any good promotional component, it shines brightest when you already know the board well and know exactly how to leverage that versatility of using other gods' resources to your advantage.
