Long story short, I learned how to play chess on this game, I've been DYING to play more chess with this game, it took me YEARS To realize the opening was a big Elvis Presley joke, and if I get this back I can challenge my family in this game. I miss it.
This is the game that taught me how to play chess! I don't have my original disc anymore (after losing it in a flood), and even if I did I don't think I'd be able to get it to run on anything. I've struggled to even find if someone had created a ROM I could try to manipulate into playing the game through some sort of emulator. It's truly a classic, and one that should have never been lost to time in the first place.
Its a charming, beginner friendly version of Chess and It has scooby-doo style animations for your attacks. Its really difficult to get running on windows as it expects a floppy drive for some reason and has random crashes.

However, the player is not an omnipotent style god, but rather a god who rises and falls with his believers and the player must help develop their nature according to their good or evil desires. The player also has a creature, their physical representation in the world, which takes the form of an anthropomorphic ape, lion, wolf, turtle, cow, or tiger. Its physical manifestation can grow to an immense size, and adopt a good or evil persona separate of the player's. They develop their character as the player rewards or punishes their actions.
