Summary
In Becoming Saint, players are aspiring preachers in 14th century Italy who aim to become saints within their lifetime, rather than dying as a martyr.
Believers are gathered from 16 social classes, with the player’s evolving doctrine and political alignment attracting certain types of followers.
The game has choose-your-own-adventure elements and is presented with pop-up cardboard towns, and menus written on parchment scrolls.
Players can anoint up to five types of believer as followers, who can then be used in grid-based real-time strategy battles with a tactical pause function.
Developer Open Lab Games is the maker of Roller Drama and Football Drama.
The demo is available on Steam ahead of the 15th July 2025 full release.
