## What is Messiahs?

Can you convert the whole world to your religion?

A new faith is born and you are chosen to spread it.
Humanity will always find a reason to hate you. You need to use your words and miracles and improve your faith in order to spread it to the entire world. You must speak to people without gaining much hatred, visit cities and right wrongs with miracles.

You will meet hundreds of people and stories on your journey, starting either from Egypt, Jerusalem, or Rome and will get one of the twenty endings as you try to spread your faith.

You can upgrade your religion to reach more people and improve yourself to perform miracles or cause calamities.

Your words will create chaos in the world, and you must handle hatred, lies, kings, and demons to create a religion that all can follow.

### 4/5 — Great game.

*2025-10-15, version 1.7*

It isn’t crashing!  It’s such a cool game.

### 4/5 — About the Game

*2025-09-06, version 1.7*

Is the Messiah a Christian game?

### 5/5 — This game super good

*2025-08-13, version 1.7*

But all this game need is every time I try to use a calamity it won’t let me most of the time even though I got it unlocked like you won’t let me tap the miracle button when I was supposed to do a calamity

### 4/5 — Good game

*2025-04-19, version 1.7*

The Game has a ton of promise. The concept is bold, the art direction is striking, and the gameplay loop is surprisingly thoughtful. It’s one of those rare mobile titles that actually makes you stop and think — about choices, consequences, and the world you’re shaping. The narrative ambition here is huge, and when it clicks, it really clicks.

But that’s also why the small issues stand out. The UI can be clunky at times, transitions lag just enough to disrupt flow, and certain mechanics feel just slightly undercooked — not broken, just not fully realized. There are moments where you feel the potential breaking through, only to be held back by small, fixable friction points.

With just a bit more polish — tighter controls, faster pacing, better onboarding — Messiahs could be a must-play. Right now, it’s still well worth your time, especially if you’re into games that take risks and reward curiosity. But here’s hoping the next update pushes it from “really good” to unforgettable.

### 5/5 — More areas please

*2024-10-21, version 1.7*

I feel like it would’ve been more practical if y’all uses the beginning such as plague inc etc where you can click any area you want to start the game

### 3/5 — Good concept, needs work

*2024-08-30, version 1.7*

The outline of the game is good. It’s sort of aiming for a cross between Reigns, Plague Inc, and Papers Please. It was fun and surprisingly intense for the first day, but quickly got repetitive. Some of the endings seem abitrary, it seems like it would be incredibly hard to complete the game as intended, and it would be cool if the different regions had different ‘vibes’ or special events. Overall an okay game, though probably not quite worth the £1.99 I paid.

### 1/5 — Not worth £1.99

*2024-08-08, version 1.7*

Good concept but simply not worth the money. There’s better for free.

### 2/5 — Buggy, bad design

*2024-07-09, version 1.7*

Pretty mediocre, to be honest. Filled with bugs, and there really isn’t any meaningful decision making. The way you are intended to play is not as a religion simulator, but as a snake oil salesman who panders to everybody (but weirdly also performs authentic miracles and actually is a prophet).

Poor quality apps like this make the Apple app store difficult to justify purchases on.

### 1/5 — Great game.

*2024-04-13, version 1.7*

Crashes my phone.  Kills me a lot.  Won’t believe me.

### 4/5 — Good game

*2024-03-23, version 1.3*

A nice way to pass time
