This is a game that’s meant to be both played and savored, and anyone looking to try something that combines familiar gameplay elements with a very tranquil tone should give it a shot.
The Deer God ultimately lacks in impact, beyond its calming visuals and music.
There's challenge, but also pure enjoyment and relaxation. It's a peculiar mix, and it won't please everyone.
Its disparate parts don’t align toward the same end: the karma system doesn’t mean anything here , just like the pixel art doesn’t mean anything, and the roguelike bits don’t mean anything.
The Deer God puts you as a man reincarnated as a Deer. An interesting premise that fails to deliver its promises due a dull design and boring mechanics.
You’ll stay enamored by Deer God for two hours. Unfortunately the game takes five to complete and after the initial charm is gone it becomes repetitive as hell. What more, it creates space for an interesting story and fails to fill it. [05/2015, p.71]
I’m afraid that whilst The Deer God was boasted as “a breathtaking 3d pixel art game that will challenge your religion and your platforming skills”, the only thing that it really challenged was my patience. It did look pretty nice though.

Summary A 3D pixel art adventure that challenges your religion and your platforming skills. It's a game about survival, reincarnation, and karma; all set in a unique 3D pixelized world.
