You really are having a run of bad luck. Probability theory only works well with large numbers. I’ve had playthroughs like that too, but then my luck seemed to turn around, and I strung together a long combo and made rapid progress.
And sometimes it was the opposite: I unlocked a lot of gods early on and upgraded a lot, but then I just couldn’t make it to the end.
To test the game's balance, we even use a bot that can quickly play through the game thousands of times, and then it generates graphs showing the statistics for an average player, or a player who is very lucky or very unlucky.
Here’s an example of what completing Act 1 looks like with 1,000 bots, with no restrictions on the chance to roll. Here you can see that, on average, a mummy can be resurrected after 1,500 rolls.
But you can also see that there are some who have won with fewer than 300-500 attempts. I think they revived the mummy without even upgrading their chance to 50%.
