Peter Molyneux Reinventing Populous With ‘Godus,’ On Kickstarter

Despite previous claims that Curiosity: What’s Inside the Cube was going to be the first and last project by Peter Molyneux’s 22 Cans studio, the developer recently announced their next experiment called Godus .

Godus is a “reinvention” of his classic god game Populous .

Project Godus is now live on Kickstarter and was announced via a new layer that was discovered in Curiosity. 22 Cans is asking for £450,000 to develop this rebirth for PC, iOS and Android.

“ Godus blends the power, growth and scope of Populous with the detailed construction and multiplayer excitement of Dungeon Keeper , and the intuitive interface and technical innovation of Black & White “

Godus will be multiplayer with up to at least eight players at a time. Currently Molyneux believes that the game would take seven to nine months to develop. The game is closing in on a third of its goal with 26 days left. Be sure to check out the embedded Kickstarter video below.
