Spoilers Ahead

Godville, Jun 17 2025

Quest-ceptional news, dear deities! After decades of heroes dragging through meaningless quests for cheap fame and dubious rewards, it’s high time for an upgrade.

Quest Rewards
Starting today, regular quest rewards are getting a makeover. They are still random, but:

  1. A wider variety of arguably useful rewards will appear more frequently
  2. Temple owners will find fewer useless bricks cluttering their reward pool
  3. New reward types include a random collectible resource (like wood, creature or glyphs) and assorted loot bags

Quest Spoilers
Introducing the newest activatable artifacts: spoilers! These mystical items let your hero peek at the end of their quest storyline before reaching it. Curious about the reward? Now you can know in advance.

Even more, if you activate a spoiler when the outcome is already known, it’ll actually change the promised reward to something else entirely.

For epic, mini, and special quests, spoilers simply add progress. Best of all? Activation is completely free.

Don’t want to touch anything? It’s ok too, heroes will occasionally figure out their quest reward from the start, noting it right in the quest text.

Quest Stuff
In classic Godville absurdity, the quest text length now loosely reflects its duration (only for regular quests). Quest description is too wordy? Prepare for a long journey. Short and sweet? Your hero will get it done soon.

On a related note, now it’s easier to gain some quest progress – via miracles and other deity means. But only up to 99%, the last step a true hero should always do themselves.

As a nice icing for this update cake, we’ve added almost two hundred brand new quests and a bunch of new quest ending phrases. Now your hero can waste time in novel ways.

Two More Things
A helpful improvement: boss push-notifications now include their abilities as well.

Finally, “Know Your Monster” is back with a hundred new pics! Every day, our newspaper will publish a monster drawing — guess its name and watch your hero to receive something special.

Outstanding update – Thank you and the team for adding these enhancements to the platform!

My “hero” is 3863 days old. I know! Even I am surprised!
One item I would love to see, as would many others I believe, providing options when their “hero” has completed a quest and has loads of coins at hand. It would be nice to provide that “hero” with a guiding voice on how to spend their hard earned coin.

Should they invest in their retirement fund? Buy new equipment? Set aside some of it for resurrecting a pet they may be on a timeline to save? Should they just blow it on whatever they wish – i.e. off to the tavern, tithing at their temple, or buying healing items? Maybe purchase upgraded monster parts for their lab creations so they have a better chance to form stronger monsters?

Our hard-headed “hero” may or may not respond accordingly but the option to push them toward a goal would be a welcomed addition.

These game devs are crazy, they manage to make some pretty interesting and refreshing updates after so many years.
I think this is one of the most impressive, UNDERRATED continously developing projects in gaming history. Congrats.

Yes! I think everyone, especially the game’s old-timers, will be interested in the quest additions and the other stuff. Thanks for the Godville improvements. That keeps a few of us longwalkers visiting Godville and checking in on our heroes to make sure they are still alive and continuing their adventures!

Thanks for all your hard work, devs! The new quest changes sound absurdly delightful. Can’t wait to see my heroine experience them herself.

It’s always sad when you go into the logs of an old game and the last one was years ago… nice to see that Godville’s still going on :D
