Gods’ Games We Play plot
The premise of the series is simple. With their abundance of free time and unchallenged powers, the gods grew bored and decided to spice things up. How? By granting a select few human “Apostles” powers, enabling them to meet the gods on a spiritual playing field to beat them at their own game.

At the start of the series, no human has managed to win the games. Why? Because gods by nature are capricious, unreasonable, and often incomprehensible. However, after former Goddess Leoleshea wakes from a deep sleep and requests to team up with the greatest player of the era, she’s introduced to a human called Fay. From here, the ultimate battle of wits begins. But who will come out on top?
