Playing Gods
''Playing Gods'' is a satirical board game released in late 2008. Two to five players each represent a different god, and compete with each other to take over the world. This is done by spreading believers, converting the followers of other gods, or killing them off with Acts of God. The game premiered at the 2009 New York Toy Fair.
==Concept and gameplay==
''Playing Gods'' combines literate satire and social commentary with the carefree fun of the Old Testament. Players can pit Christians against Muslims and Hindus against Jews, or be the mascot, a machine-gun-toting Buddha. Players may choose to be any god from Jesus to Buddha, from Cthulhu to Zeus, from the Cult of Oprah to the Almighty Dollar.〔http://www.playinggods.com〕
''Playing Gods'' is basically an area control game, like ''Risk''. The board is a map of the world, and each continent contains a Holy City that is home of one of the world’s religions. Circling the globe is an outer ring where the god pawns move around the board. They do not actually move onto the map of the Earth, they stay above in the heavens, gathering power through Wrath and Conversion cards. Wrath cards (also called "kill cards") are used to bring down natural disasters (plagues, locusts, avalanches, floods, and other Acts of Gods) on other gods' followers. Conversion cards are used to convert other gods' followers to your beliefs (promising them things like Afterlife, Prosperity, and Miracles).
Typical card content includes: “Bring down the plague: Kill two sects,” “Your preacher is found with a prostitute, lose one sect,” and “Another god's follower challenges you to prove you exist; you fry him with lightning in front of a crowd. Gain one sect.” The game is won when one god converts or kills off all the other gods’ followers.
