Disciple games are a way of playing Dominions as a team game. Only one player per team will play the role of a pretender trying to rise to godhood. Others play the part of the "disciples", which have no dominion of their own (and therefore no scale), but otherwise behave independently. They only get 300 points for the design of their disciple leader, as opposed to the 425 pretenders get.

Disciple games differ in a few other ways from the default free-for-all dominion games. For example, no prophet can be appointed since the disciples replace them thematically, and players from the same team have the option to exchange provinces.
