I have bought and read every title in this gameline, and am currently in the process of building a campaign. I haven't yet run the game, nor have I played it. What is Part-Time Gods? Players typically begin as fledgling deities such as the god of love, the goddess of ravens, the god of aircraft, etc. The players must contend with both external threats to their survival and power such as supernatural monsters called 'outsiders' in the game and other, hostile gods, as well as deal with the personal challenges relating to the realities of their divine status.
Likewise, anyone who's read Neil Gaiman's American Gods will find familiar ground here. I've seen some limited discussion on other forums about how to emulate the American Gods television series using Godbound or Exalted. PTG takes much of its inspiration from Gaimain's original novel; the game is literally made to emulate the American Gods setting.
PTG stands alone among demigod-level games in that it forces the players to deal with the grounded, day-to-day realities of modern life. The deities in PTG are almost all normal joes who suddenly attained divine power. They have families and friends. They have jobs, ambitions, and mundane struggles. They have to pay taxes, go to PTA meetings, suck up to bosses, and otherwise deal with the humdrum stresses of everyday reality while somehow juggling the responsibilities of their divine authority.
