About the Game

Realistic simulator of the Pope – face the problems of the modern world from the point of view of the head of the Church. Make decisions that will weigh on the fate of humanity, convert and support the crowds. Plan the church's strategic actions through faithful envoys. Manage your travels around the globe. Fight for peace.


You start the game on the conclave day – you choose your coat of arms, affecting the course of the pontificate, and your opportunities in the game, such as oratory skills or the strength of your own faith, which you can give to the crowd or through it, bless Units. However, every decision to interfere in the fate of the world comes at a price – with further actions you strengthen the faith of others, but you weaken yourself.


When you run out of strength, you can pray – to summarize your accomplishments on a given day and to recover for more actions. What fate awaits the world under your leadership? Will you face the biggest challenges of our time? Will you stop the biggest conflicts in the world? Or will you overthrow tyrants and dictators by influencing crowds of the faithful from the countries you choose to visit? The choice is yours.
