“Not playing videogames has never been this much fun” - Jim Sterling, GamesRadar (iPhone Game of the Day) "This game has made me laugh more than any other I've played in recent memory" - GamePro (App Store Games of the Week) "Ultimately, GodVille is a fun, funny, incredibly clever little game" - Destructoid Welcome to a self-playing comedy game about gods, heroes, and lack of subordination. Want to be a deity? A hero of yours is totally ready to ignore your wishes. It's a parody take on MMORPG and levelling. Here you can do literally nothing, while your character progresses on his own, writing a story on the go. Or you could show this mortal your will and control him (unsuccessfully). Either way, it'll be lots of fun. And puns. Lots of them. The game requires persistent internet connection.

Progress Knight is a life-sim incremental based in a fantasy/medieval setting, where you must progress through the career ladder and acquire new skills to become the ultimate being. You first start off as a beggar, barely being able to feed yourself as the days go by. However, over the years you learn new skills and gain plenty of work experience to enter new high paying jobs while managing your living expenses... Will you decide to take the easy route of doing simple commoner work? Or will you go through harsh training to climb the ranks within the military? Or maybe will you decide to study hard and enrol in a magic academy, learning life-impacting spells? Your career path is open-ended, the decision is up to you. Eventually, your age will catch up to you. You will be given an option to prestige and gain xp multipliers (based on the performance of your current life) for your next life at the cost of losing all your levels and assets. Fear not though, as you will re-gain your levels much, much more quickly than in your previous life...

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Godville at none against Progress Knight's shown. Godville also leads on rating (4.7 vs 4.4) and review sentiment (84% vs 72%). Progress Knight's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months). On price, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
