Faith is a 2-4 player competitive area control strategy board game with cards where you try to beat your opponents (or infidel foes as we may say) by claiming most of regions by placing your worshippers on the board.
Faith is about ruling the world with spreading your worshippers into region slots. The goal is to conquer as many regions as possible using dice. Regions have different number of token slots, roll conditions and victory points based on that region’s location and value. The player who achieves 50 victory points first wins.
