Idol Hands is a strategy game where you gradually take over the world by guiding your people and defeating other gods.
You are a god in a time of many gods. Rather than having direct control over your people’s actions, your people will live their own lives; placing buildings, growing crops, and micro managing themselves.
Without you, your people are directionless!
Your powers will provide them with usable land, protect them from attack, and control nature to their benefit.
With your help they can grow and prosper; allowing them to increase the bounty of their harvests, and learn skills to eventually forming an immense fighting force that you can unleash upon your enemy’s population to wipe them out, leaving any other god powerless and defeated.
Key Features:
- Play God with a nation of followers ready to respond to your command.
- Shape a beautiful and fully-3D land as you see fit, carving out your perfect world.
- Feel the power! Unleash massive natural disasters, striking your enemies down before you.
- Play the game in the way that you want to. Multiple strategies mean that no two games will ever be the same.

Idol Hands is an older game from 2015. It's a venerable 9 years old at the time of this review. It's basically a ripoff of Black & White but you don't get the cute avatar critter that you can teach to do things, and the gameplay is a little bit more shallow. Black & White from Temu, if you like.
It's a great concept for a game, as Black & White showed us, but this deficient copycat doesn't bring anything new to the table. And the challenge for the developer of this was to convince people that this is better than Black & White, and they failed. It's just not as good, despite being quite a bit newer.
From a technical perspective, the game doesn't meet basic minimum requirements that most PC gamers expect as standard.
The controls can't be customised, which will be an annoyance for many, but it can also render the game unplayable for differently-abled gamers, left handed gamers or gamers using AZERTY or other international keyboard layouts.
The game is very badly optimised, with low framerates and janky gameplay even on a high end rig. Developers must take the time and polish their games and ensure they are optimised and will play well on any potential customers system.
These technical defects push this game below acceptable standards for any modern PC game.
Idol Hands didn't appeal much to the people who own a copy of the game, either. It has achievements, and they show us a very clear picture that the game didn't really capture any interest from gamers. The most commonly and easily attained achievement is "Let's Get Started", for starting a new game, trivial to get, but less than 21 percent of players bothered to get that far before uninstalling the game. Hardly a success story, even the people who own this game weren't interested in it.
So, should you buy this game? Is this one of the best of the 100,000+ games on Steam?
Idol Hands has the optimistic price of around $5 USD, it's not worth it given the defects and shortcomings with the product, especially considering the sheer number of completely free, much higher quality games on Steam.
For comparison, the $5 asking price for this game could get you games like "Ark: Survival Evolved", "Bioshock 2 Remastered" or "Total War Shogun II". Quality, professionally made games like those are frequently on sale cheaper than this.
Unfortunately Steam reviewers aren't presented with a "Maybe" option... if they did, that's what I'd choose. This isn't a completely bad game, but it's also not one of the best. As always, if you read my review and you can overlook the negatives I've called out, or they just aren't important to you, then by all means go ahead and buy this. Otherwise, I think you'd be better off playing Black & White instead.
Actually works pretty well
