In Gods of Olympus, Ikariam players are in for a divine experience as they can construct a Gods’ Shrine before assigning colonies to worship one of six powerful new gods. As a righteous reward for their devotion, the god will provide increased resource production, with bonuses based on ancient Greek mythology.

Through the Gods’ Shrine, players can also interact with the gods they unlock, completing daily tasks to earn “Favor”. Donate that Favor, keep these holy figures satisfied, and watch the production bonuses grow!

Features of the Ikariam Gods of Olympus update include:

  • New "Mythology” field of research which will facilitate unlocking the new gods

  • New building: Gods’ Shrine, which is required for players to be able to obtain and interact with the civilization’s gods

  • 6 new gods, each with their own special abilities related to ancient Greek mythology:

    • Dionysus: increases the town’s wine production

    • Pan: increases the town’s wood production

    • Hephaestus: increases the town’s sulfur production

    • Tyche: increases the town’s marble production

    • Theia: increases the town’s crystal production

    • Plutus: increases the town’s gold production











  • Reworked Daily Tasks: The daily tasks system will receive a major overhaul to introduce more variety, as well as incorporate its functionality into the gods' system in a meaningful way
