In this episode, Vivian Asimos and Aled Thomas chat about when religion works as a game mechanic. Instead of looking at the way religion is portrayed in the narrative, today we're focusing on how religion functions in the video game. We chat about how religion can work without faith or belief, and relates how religion works in video games to our more analog life, including henotheism. We also chat about the opposite: when religions use video games and their game mechanics to experience or celebrate their religion.
