Holy War (board game)

Holy War is a 1979 board wargame published by Metagaming Concepts.

Gameplay

Holy War is a game in which an immense space-dwelling creature has enclosed a cosmic anomaly within itself, and created a pocket universe in which intelligent life developed, ultimately leading to a religious schism.[1]

Reception

Eric Goldberg reviewed After the Holocaust in Ares Magazine #1, rating it a 2 out of 9.[1] Goldberg commented that "The rules to Holy War are extremely difficult to decipher, and, as the game is interpreted by the designer, only one side may win."[1]

gollark: It's not. I told you 30 minutes ago, then erased your memory of it through orbital mind control lasers.
gollark: Actually, I am Bill Gates.
gollark: Well, as an immortal person it's a bit redundant, but yes.
gollark: Dying is *very* uncool, so logically not dying is highly cool, so immortality is the correct option.
gollark: Well, if I needed one, which I don't, obviously both those options are boring and I should be put into a polar orbit around Saturn.
