Paganism refers to the authentic religions of ancient Greece and Rome as well as surrounding areas. It originated from the Neolithic (Stone Age) era. The term, pagan, is derived from the Latin word, paganus, which means a country dweller. The pagan usually has a belief in many gods (polytheistic), but only one is chosen as the one to worship which represents the chief god and supreme godhead.
Many Pagan deities are associated with various aspects of the human experience, such as love, death, marriage, fertility, healing, war, and so forth. Still others are connected to different phases of the agricultural cycle, the moon, and the sun. Read more about the different Types of Pagan Deities, so you can figure out which ones you'd like to try working with, depending on your personality and your magical goals.

Not a lot of info
Aziba
You basically get flashcards on each deity with VERY basic information, which from the cards I looked at, didn't seem particularly accurate. Ceridwen and Brigid are not the same, as it claims. Completely loses all nuances of the deities- very one-dimensional characterizations. Doesn't include Mannanan mac Lir. Nice pictures though.

The information is worth about one star alone. It's extremely basic info, and not 100% accurate in some instances. Also, the pictures didn't show up.

The information is very basic and some of it is not correct. But it also gives you enough information so that if you seriously curious you have a reference to start your research
Needs work...
Odom of the Evil Eye
Not very fleshed out. Some descriptions are only one sentence. I question the choice to put Japanese spirits in the listing, as Shinto followers may not consider themselves pagan. I do not know any Shintoists so I cannot say whether they do or do not.
Awesome

Great start

I really believe it covers a lot. I'm hoping they add more lore and symbolism. Definitely a dollar well spent
Incomplete

Some of the lore is incomplete... Like in the native American "raven" it says what he did but not how and not for what reason. It just says he is greedy... In my opinion this app is lacking. Sorry
Room for improvement

It is good but I would like it if pronunciation of the names of the gods was included.

Needs an update. One of the missing important Egyptian deities this app is missing is the Dwarf God Bet. Bet is the Dwarf God whose theme is "the child is protected". I only know this because I read a book called "the game of 30" which several Pharaohs playedand a complete set was found in King Tut's Pyramid. One of the Gods on the board was Bet so Bet was important enough to get on those boards.
