A Ceramiq Games Production
A psychological strategy game where ancient Dream Gods compete to shape one ordinary man's subconscious — for better or worse.
In Development — Coming to Steam
The Game
They mess with Todd.
Let's Play God with Todd is a multiplayer psychological strategy game for 4–6 players. Originally a tabletop experience, it's being reimagined as a digital game built in Unity, coming first to Steam.
Each player assumes the role of a Dream God — an ancient deity who infiltrates the dreams of an ordinary human named Todd. Every night as Todd sleeps, you weave dreams to influence his waking life: his relationships, career, self-image, and deepest fears.
But here's the catch — if Todd's mental state deteriorates too far, he suffers a complete psychological breakdown and everyone loses. Well, almost everyone. One scheming deity might secretly want exactly that.
Play dream intervention cards, strike deals with rival gods, and claim powerful miracles to shape Todd's psyche.
Todd's life areas produce resources. Manage his wellbeing or watch anxiety, confusion, and depression spread.
Every god has a hidden nemesis and a divine scheme. Trust no one — alliances shift, betrayal is inevitable.
Push Todd too far and crisis escalates. Life Happens cards throw curveballs. Balance manipulation with mercy.
The Dream Gods
Each Dream God has a unique divine domain, special abilities, and their own twisted approach to "helping" Todd.
The Grindset God, Avatar of Hustle Culture
Eternal Work Week
Thrives on chaos. When Life Happens doesn't raise crisis enough, gains influence anyway.
The Guardian of Sleep, Defender of Rest
Mental Fortress
Gains influence by removing negative forces from Todd's life areas. The quiet protector.
The Social Media Deity, Lord of Likes
Viral Validation
Feeds on anxiety reduction. The more anxiety decreases, the more powerful they become.
The Success Dream Weaver, Prophet of Prosperity
Manifest Destiny
Grows stronger by lifting Todd's depression, one token at a time.
The Problem Solver, Architect of Solutions
Eureka Generator
Unblocking Todd's potential is this deity's path to power.
The Stress Dream Master, Shadow Self Guide
Anxiety Alchemist
Manipulates focus itself, gaining influence by redirecting Todd's attention.
Todd's Mindscape
Todd's mind is a landscape of interconnected areas — from his physical health to the void of his deepest fears. Each area produces resources, harbors problems, and cascades into the next.
Physical Health
Relationships
Intellectual Pursuits
Work & Purpose
Self-Image
Repressed Desires
Social Persona
Hobbies & Play
Self Expression
Anxiety & Fear
How It Plays
The active player draws cards unique to their deity — Protective Dreams, Social Dreams, Deep Psyche Dreams, and more.
A miracle is revealed. Players pitch their interventions and lobby for support. The most persuasive deity wins.
The winning deity reshapes Todd's mindscape. Miracles grant lasting abilities. Effects ripple across life areas.
Todd wakes. Life areas produce resources based on their state. Meet his goals — or watch crisis climb.
A new event card shakes up the board. Fresh problems, unexpected twists. Adapt or be outmaneuvered.
About
Ceramiq Games is an indie studio building games at the intersection of psychology, strategy, and humor. We believe the best games make you think, laugh, and occasionally question your own moral compass.
Let's Play God with Todd is our debut title — born from a love of tabletop gaming, dream logic, and the absurdity of trying to "fix" someone else's life. We're bringing it to life in Unity, launching first on Steam.
We're a small team with big, slightly unhinged ideas. If you like games that blend strategic depth with irreverent charm, you're in the right place.
