@@Jeremy-k9t not really, organized religion that was actively spread wasn't a thing in the ancient era, you mostly just had local cults at best. Like ancient Greece had no overarching religion, each city state had wildy varying beliefs. Egypt had a state religion of sorts through the priests in the main cities but beliefs varied a lot further down the nile.

I do hope there’s a contrast mode for the ui, or that it gets tweaked, because that’s a lot of blue text on a blue background, with blue and purple science and music symbols, and with gold and happiness icons similar colors to the brown and gold tech boxes. It almost hides the fact that the hover text doesn’t line up with its symbols.

It seems like religion isn't its own victory type in this game, since each Civ gets their own religion and their capitals can't lose it. Looks more like Civ V where it's a supplement to a culture win or just boosts to your preferred style.
