Fantastic replay value, April 23, 2008
Related reviews: spring thing 2008

Takes you through three vignettes (childhood, high school, and imprisonment as an adult) which you must complete in a manner befitting your chosen "god" - at the end, you meet your maker for the final judgement. The author's views on the atheism/theism debate are clear from the fact that your allegiance is decided by a dice-roll! The gods available range from the usual (Jeohvah) to the insane (Cthulhu!), and the actions required of the player for each god are distinctly different. With around six gods available, there is six times the replay value. Six games in one, wrapped around a fascinating philosphical conceit. The highlight of Spring Thing 2008.
