Goddess Order^*(Korean: 가디스오더, Japanese: ゴッデスオーダー, Trad. Chinese: 女神秘令) is a Korean tag-team side-scrolling action role-playing gacha game developed by PixelTribe, a new company spun-off from the CREPE development team at Loadcomplete, known for their match-3 action RPG Crusaders Quest, and published by Kakao Games for iOS and Android phones. Announced in 2021 and following multiple private beta tests and delays, it would later enter its soft-launch phase in Malaysia on June 24, 2025 with its 0.1.0 release.

In the Goddess Year 100, the people of Earth and those who worshipped the Goddess were utterly crushed by the invading God of Ruin and his corrupted followers. Princess Lisbeth Leonhart and her entourage escaped their burning home city of Ascalon to go up in the skies where the Goddess Temple is located, bringing with them a blank book requested by the Goddess. Unfortunately, the God of Ruin's followers chased after them, seeking the blank book's destruction. Surrounded and out of options, the Princess's party eventually sacrifice themselves to make way for her and the book to reach the Goddess, much to her despair. After reaching the Goddess Elizabeth, she reveals that the book Lisbeth brought is the Goddess Order, a book that contains the recorded history of past timelines, containing knowledge like advanced technologies and "prophecies" of the future. The Goddess decides to sacrifice her lifeforce to send the book back in time as she lacked the power to send a whole person back. Before the book could travel through time however, the God of Ruin manages to reach the Goddess's sanctuary and smites the book with his dark power. Lisbeth then throws herself between the dark beam and the book, managing to get away unscathed but leaving her knocked out. Shocked to see a living being survive the brunt of his power, the God of Ruin becomes distracted enough for the Goddess to successfully gamble on sending both Lisbeth and the book back in time...

July 1st of the Goddess Year 98, two years before the End. Lisbeth, suffering from a fever, wakes up in a cold sweat after seeing a dream of the world ending and her friends' sacrifices. Deciding to make sure her friends are safe, she dons her battle attire and rides her horse towards the Land of the First Starfall, where she discovers just what destiny has in store for her...

The players take on the role of Lisbeth as you lead her and her knight order (that the player can name, standing in as their username) towards a new future alongside the Goddess Order, which has a human form bearing the name "SIA"^*stands for Synthetic Intelligence Artifact. Players will travel around the world in instanced levels, split between locales, towns and cities, and take on stages to clear with their 3-man party. Each character has a basic attack, a Hold Skill^*casted when holding the Attack button, a Special Skill^*cooldown-based active skills with varying effects depending on character kits, a Counter^*casted by immediately pressing the Attack button after a successful parry, Switch Skills^*skills that activate when a player switches characters while the Link Gauge is sufficiently filled, which also allows them to fight in battle independently for a set amount of time, Link Skills^*cooldown-based auto skills used by "Linked" party members when the player does certain actions in battle, and an Ultimate Skill^*powerful active skills that require either a resource or a cooldown to be used + an Ultimate Link Skill^*skills that Linked units cast when the player uses the main unit's Ultimate Skill, as well as Passives and Solidarity Skills^*passives that only activate when a character is partied with specific classes, elements, and/or beliefs. The name of the game is party synergy, and players must know how to make the most of them throughout their quest to save the world from a dark fate.

Goddess Order contains examples of:

• Action Girl: There are a lot of women in the playable roster who can kick ass as much as the men can.
• A Day in the Limelight: Some characters get their own sidequests that allow players to play as them at the level your party is expected to be as a trial run, with said battles often explaining how the featured character's mechanics work and how to use them to their fullest. Knight Trials also serve the same purpose, just that they only serve as tutorials on how to use them properly that you can access at any point in the story.
• Alternative Calendar: The game uses the term "Goddess Year" to indicate the passage of the years, starting from the end of the Third Rift Crisis around a century ago.
• Always Check Behind the Chair: Goddess Trails, a currency that can be used at traveling merchant Velmut's store, are often hidden away from view by various objects, ranging from things in the foreground to being right behind NPC sprites. You'll know when you find one of these when the action button can be pressed and there's a pouch icon above your controlled characters head.
• Amazon Brigade: It's very possible to create a party of only women due to the game's Improbably Female Cast.
• Ambidextrous Sprite: Affects both the battle sprites and full portraits. It's generally accepted that the sprites facing right show them at the "correct" orientation.
  • Lisbeth seems to be the one most affected by this though, as the game has various inconsistencies when it comes to which hand she wields her rapier. In her battle sprites and full illustrations, she wields it with her left hand, but the anime cutscenes that play during the start of Prologue and Act 1 Chapter 2 both show her wielding it with her right hand.
• An Adventurer Is You: Goddess Order assigns its playable characters into one of five Classes:
  • Fighters are all-rounder characters with decent stats that make them capable of handling beatings while dishing out good damage.
  • Slayers are DPS-focused characters that have high Attack but middling HP, making them poor at parries and counterattacks.
  • Breakers are slow and heavy characters specializing in delivering massive amounts of Break damage, alongside either high HP and Defense stats or skill sets that facilitate self-healing abilities that make them very capable of parrying and retaliating in kind.
  • Tricksters are characters that typically inflict element-related debuffs that help support the party's damage potential, while also having high Link Gauge regeneration rates that make them capable of quickly allowing players to switch them out and make them temporarily fight independently with invulnerability.
  • Supporters are, as stated in their Class name, support characters whose focus lie in supporting the party in various ways, like healing and providing party buffs.
• Anti Poop-Socking: Zigzagged. The game has a stamina system that can hold up to 240 Meat^*(starts being uncapped by 5 Meat per player level after reaching Knight Fame Lvl. 50), with a general recharge time of a full day to go from zero to 240. There are no restrictions to playing through a stage though, as simply entering a stage doesn't cost the player Meat. For instance, in material dungeons, the game gives the player the choice to either use Meat to obtain the associated stage clear reward or skip it altogether, allowing players to fully achieve the three requirements needed to Sweep the cleared stage at any time they see fit, even after they've exhausted their Meat counter. Other additional content like the Tactical Trainings and the Northern Front don't ask for Meat cost altogether, so the player can clear them at any time. The same holds true for main story-related content.
• Arbitrary Headcount Limit: No matter how many people Lisbeth has in her canon party, you can only take three characters with you in battle. Even then, only one (the player-controlled character) is actually on-field unless the player manages to activate the sub-members' Switch Skills through expending a full bar of the Link Gauge, allowing them to fight independently (AI-controlled) and invulnerably for a certain duration.
• Artifact of Hope: The eponymous Goddess Order, a book containing knowledge deemed to be from the Goddess herself, may just be the thing the heroes need to avoid the various tragedies that await the world within the next two years. As a result, the God of Ruin and his followers are also on the hunt for both the book and its wielder Lisbeth.
• Backtracking: Players may have to search through various hub towns again and again in case they missed out on very valuable Goddess Trails. Achievements sometimes give hints as to where to find them, but not always.
• Bad Future: The Fall of Kaplan and the descent of the God of Ruin in the Goddess Year 100. It's the future that Lisbeth and the Goddess Order are actively trying to thwart after their trip back in time.
• Bad Luck Mitigation Mechanic:
  • Pick-up Banners have a spark system wherein a copy of the featured SSR character can be obtained within 150 pulls by exchanging gathered points for it. These points are converted to Faded Pages when their related banner ends, letting players use said currency to buy particulars like gacha tickets and exclusive relics.
  • The Normal Banner features an 80-pull pity system that makes it so that a player will always obtain an SSR character once they hit 80 pulls without pulling a single SSR.
• Bottomless Magazines: Gunners like Violet don't seem to require reloading if they're shooting guns as their basic attacks. Subverted with Violet's Special Skill though, which lets her fire a long penetrative shot that inflicts "Electrocute" once but would require another tap of said skill to reload and use again, which then requires a stack of Magic Bullet gained by either hitting an enemy with the fourth attack of her basic attack animation or by holding the Attack button and using her Hold Skill for long enough.
• Break Meter: Elites and Bosses in particular have a Break Gauge that is chipped away by player attacks, rendering them stunned and vulnerable to damage (150% more damage received) upon breaking up until their Break Gauge returns to full capacity. The game has a whole class specializing in this mechanic, appropriately called "Breakers", that have skills that lean more towards breaking these enemies.
• Butt-Monkey: The "Most Unfortunate Person in the World" chain involves a person getting into a series of, well, unfortunate events.
  • He's accused of leading a goblin horde to Totomeria. He is… because he's being chased by them. After the Goddess Knights clear them out, the unlucky sod then trips on a rock and faceplants into a tree, making a beehive fall on top of him, making him get chased by angry bees.
  • He's later accused of leading a company of Rosen Musketeers to the Goddess Mysteria temple, and for the same reason. After Lisbeth and the group beat them, a rifle falls onto his head, then he's clawed at by a hawk.
  • Third time, he's now being chased by a horde of slimes. After the battle, he gets hit by a piece of slime. He had ran to the Totemeru Mountains all the way from Ascalon since the last quest.
  • Finally it culminates in "Earthquake Epicenter" when goblins, Rosen Musketeers, and slimes all gather together. It turns out the same man being chased in each quest were identical triplets. Violet yells at the men to stay home. Before the party gets an answer to how the triplets were chased around, they get flung off by an unknown force.
• Call to Adventure: Lisbeth receives hers after her fated meeting with SIA, calling for her to use the Goddess Order to avoid the world's ruin.
• Cast from Stamina: A lot of Hold Skills require a certain level of "Energy" to be stored before being able to use them, like Etna's where she has to build up her Energy bar to almost full before she can use hers. One character in particular, Tia, stands out due to her only being reliant on Energy unlike the rest who all have unique resources to spend, using said Energy to give her a power boost for a certain duration. Evidently, her main gimmick is to constantly build up Energy to keep her in her empowered state for as long as the player is able to.
• Combination Attack: Each character has their own Ultimate Link Skill, which is a skill that gets activated when the player-controlled character activates their Ultimate Skill while there are on-field AI-controlled characters, allowing them to attack with the player character in unison. These skills are independent from Ultimate Skills, which are only usable when they're the active player character and have different effects.
• Context-Sensitive Button: In battle, the button located at the bottom right of the Attack button serves one of two purposes depending on whether or not the character is moving: while standing still or attacking without touching the virtual joystick, this button becomes a Block button that you can either tap or hold, with taps being ideal for parries and holds being ideal for when the player is faced with some form of continuous damage that can be blocked, while the button becomes a Dodge button when moving, allowing players to move away from enemies or telegraphed attacks quickly.
• Counter-Attack: All playable characters have a Counter skill that activate when the player presses the Attack button immediately after they successfully parry an attack. Almost every attack, from basic attacks to powerful but telegraphed attacks, can be parried. If an enemy has an Unblockable Attack, it's always telegraphed as a purple flash or shadow compared to a regular powerful attack's red.
• Crossover: September 2025 has one with hololive, with Usada Pekora and Mori Calliope brought into the world.
• The Empire: The Ascalio Empire, the oldest nation in the Ascalian continent. It once dominated the western continent of Ascalia and even had eyes on conquering the eastern continent of Remuria, until Rift outbreaks weakened the Empire's influence. It was then further weakened after its former capital Ascalon declared war against Ascalio after a Rift outbreak forced the Empire to move its capital to Drachland and abandoned the people of Ascalon to their fate, only to be saved and led by war hero Eleanor Leonhart, who would later found the Kingdom of Kaplan. Due to this, Ascalio sees Kaplan as a major adversary in its dreams of reclaiming its past glory.
• Fantasy Counterpart Culture: The city-state of Totemeria and its nearby locales have flavors of ancient Greek culture in it, what with its abundance of old ruins, infrastructure made of marble, the attire of the Goddess Mysteria warrior priests, and having myths and legends that echo the ancient Greeks like the shield Aegis and the Griffin.
• Flavor Text: Equippable relics in particular have extensive flavor text with them, usually revealing worldbuilding content relating to said relic and how it helped shape history.
• Founder of the Kingdom: Kaplan's founding monarch was the legendary Eleanor Leonhart, who fought for Kaplanian independence from Ascalio 300 years before the events of the game. Kaplan's monarchy has since been an unbroken chain of Leonharts, with the present house consisting of the current king Richard, his late wife, and his daughter and the game's protagonist Princess Lisbeth. She is featured prominently in Ascalon Castle with her painting being front and center in the hallway, and Lisbeth's exclusive relic is her weapon of light, the Holyblade Exellius.
• Gameplay Ally Immortality: In battle, any character that is in "Linked" status can fight alongside the player-controlled character for a while before moving back to the reserve slots. Its biggest boon however is giving Linked characters invulnerability during said period, as things may sometimes get messy with crowding enemies and a defense-averse AI only attacking and not defending. Doesn't mean you can use them as a meat shield though as enemies generally target the player-controlled character (due to them having HP to deplete) instead of the subs.
• Gory Discretion Shot: While the game doesn't shy away from depictions of death in battle, there are some things it chooses to move the camera away from while the player can only hear the horrors that come after, like the scene where Remnant Overlord Paziona rips into a Wikhatti mage that begged her to order the mages to retreat, or when fleeing Rosen Musketeer soldiers got surrounded by Living Stones and got crushed to death.
• Hello, [Insert Name Here]: Players can't rename Lisbeth herself, but they can name the Knight Order she commands. In-game, NPCs and Lisbeth's own party will sometimes refer to this knight order as "[Player Name] Knight Order".
• Heroes Prefer Swords: The protagonist Lisbeth fights using a rapier. Her combat style boils down to her unleashing fast attacks alongside swift movement to take down her enemies.
• Improbably Female Cast: The playable women far outnumber the playable men so far, clocking in at 14 women and 5 men in its initial Malaysian soft launch.
• Limit Break: Ultimate Skills, which require either a full meter or a cooldown to be used. These powerful attacks tend to hit all enemies in the field and can trigger Linked characters' Ultimate Link Skills when there are on-field AI-controlled characters.
• Little Bit Beastly: Judging from the various Beastkin one can find while traveling the world, as well as playable Beastkin like Jan and Tia, this particular race is predominantly this trope alongside small statures and superhuman strength.
• Loads and Loads of Sidequests: Clearing a story chapter is usually accompanied by a bunch of side quests becoming available to the player, usually found in the general region the cleared chapter took place in, hence the name "Regional Quests". These can be accepted by either simply approaching an NPC or by opening the Carrier Pigeon menu and accepting a quest given through a letter to Lisbeth.
• Lore Codex: The Library of Memories is a Pocket Dimension within the Goddess Order that's only accessible to its human form SIA. It includes a series of books that contain additional information like worldview topics, region info, important NPCs, and a bestiary, and they can be actively expanded upon if the player goes out of their way to interact with certain objects in towns and learn more about them. It also contains a prophecy timeline, filled with summaries of each prophecy, that constantly updates whenever there is a significant plot progression in the main story.
• Money Sink: There are a lot of ways to spend Gold in the game. It's required to spend some when you have to uncap a character's level, level a relic, enhance gear, level a character's Skills, craft accessories, and upgrade the Alchemy Lab.
• Only the Chosen May Wield: Only Lisbeth can obtain the various information that the Goddess Order has within its pages, especially its prophecies. She also has the ability to bestow said knowledge to anyone she authorizes, so she usually tells the Goddess Order to let some certain people she trusts to see its prophecies, like her friends Violet and Jan.
• Paper-Thin Disguise: Dionis, the Mayor of Totomeria, is a Nervous Wreck. When he puts on the mask of Captain Whiplash, he's able to fight against the goblin hordes plaguing the town in Chapter 2. Anyone who knows Dionis can plainly see it's him, but pretend not to give away his identity.
• Plot-Triggering Book: The titular Goddess Order is a book containing uncertain prophecies taken from past timelines that finds its way to Lisbeth, the only person in the world with the highest authority granted to access the book and its contents. After gaining the Goddess Order, Lisbeth starts her adventure to prevent the many tragic prophecies depicted in the book and, ultimately, stop the fall of her kingdom and the world.
• Samus Is a Girl: The Chapter 6 Velmuth sidequest "Water Tastes Different" has them take off their face concealing hood to reveal… they were a woman all this time, and an elf.
• Tag Team: Players can bring in three characters in battles, but they will enter battle with only the 1st character in the party list. Players must then build up a meter that will allow them to switch to a new character while allowing the switched-out character to stay on-field for a certain duration as an invulnerable AI-controlled character. Proper use of this mechanic will allow players to have all three characters on-field at a time, with one player-controlled character and two AI-controlled characters.
• The Prophecy: A whole slew of tragic prophecies is contained within SIA, of which she can then show to Lisbeth, Violet, and Jan to help them avoid said prophecies. In-game, players can read about them in the Library of Memories, provided they've advanced the story enough for a select prophecy's pages to be fully readable.
• Screw Destiny: Lisbeth and her party have the ability to act against the prophecies that SIA bestows upon them, with one or two main story chapters usually revolving around a specific prophecy and them finding a way to break through it before the tragedies depicted within become set in stone. As an example, here's a general gist of Act 1 as a whole:
  • Chapter 1: Rewriting destiny so that Lisbeth comes out of a surprise attack by a golem unscathed. If it had played out as destiny foretold, Lisbeth would have been too injured to fight during the next two incidents, setting off a chain of events that would lead to the end of the world.
  • Chapter 2: Rewriting destiny so that the damages caused by the Totemeria Incident, where the city-state of Totemeria was suddenly attacked by an all-out monster raid, is mitigated. If it had played out as destiny foretold, Totemeria would have been reduced to rubble, and the Silverwing Knights who were there to defend the city-state would have been almost completely wiped out with their commander Aron being the lone survivor.
  • Chapters 3-4: Rewriting destiny so that the Goddess Mysteria Incident, where the many priests of the said Goddess-worshipping religion mysteriously vanished from their main temple, is prevented. If it had played out as destiny foretold, the world would have never realized that the temple was actually raided by a coalition between the Kaplan rebel group Rosen Musketeers, Wikhatti mages, and the Remnant Overlord Paziona, and that the loss of whatever important artifacts were kept there was a major factor in the hastening of the end of the world.
• Set Right What Once Went Wrong: The whole idea behind sending the Goddess Order back in time is to bestow humanity with future knowledge needed to combat the threat of the God of Ruin, who's already successfully crushed the resistance and conquered the world. After the God of Ruin seemingly destroys the book, the Goddess instead opts to send both the book and Lisbeth back in time, giving her full authority over the book in the process. While the current Lisbeth doesn't realize it due to past timeline events feeling more like dreams to her, she is essentially trying to right the course of history with her and the Goddess Order's knowledge.
• Shout-Out: The achievements for dealing 15,000/30,000/1 million HP damage in a single hit are Ordinary Punch/Consecutive Ordinary Punches/Serious Punch.
• Sins of Our Fathers: The Silverwren family, and the Silverwing Knight order, are considered pariahs in Kaplan because of Aerion Silverwren, who was once the hero of Kaplan, who became the "Traitor to Humanity" by siding with the God of Ruin during the Second Rift Crisis.
• Unstoppable Force Meets Immovable Object: The sidequest "Mightiest Pickaxe" has two miners talk about how one bought a pickaxe that will cleave through any rock, and a helmet that will withstand any blow. Lisbeth and Violet point out the contradiction, making the miners get into an argument about their purchase until they test it out. Both objects break, and they still argue about which broke first. Violet says any more arguing is like deciding if the chicken or egg came first. The miners ask what that is until Violet tells them they need to buy new gear. They freak out when they realize they have a shift in an hour.
