For some time now I am developing (well, nothing to show still) a simple, 2D, top-down
game that I would define as a Religios RPG, set in Jerusalems old city in modern time
where competing factions would be competing religions: muslims, jews and christians.
If there is a place on internet for something like this its Codex.
What is it all about: in the old city on the mount that dominates it there is a rock
known as a foundation stone, first stone created when god created the earth and from
its dust Adam was molded, this was Eden. Abraham or Ibrahim (for muslims) binded Isaac
forefather of Jews (or in muslim interpretation his first born son Ishmael father of
Arabs) here. And this same stone, Shetiyya for Jews, was foundation for magnificent
Solomons Temple, to house the name of God, place where their God will be present whit
them, place for sacrifice and the only Jewish temple.
With a temple a Temple-state was created with a Gods law Torah as a constitution.
The Temple was destroyed, rebuilt and destroyed again and Jews scatered all around
the world awaiting for moshiach from the line of David who will liberate or bring
the jews back from exile, reestablish jewish theocracy and today, most importantly,
rebuild the temple.
In the meantime many claimed the title of messiah including Jesus Christ,
who was according to christians incarnation of God himself. Christ abrogated the law,
prophesied destruction of temple and died rejected by Jews, making of himself and of
his folowers a new temple and a new Israel and precondition for a secular state.
In 7th century arabia a prophet named Muhammed appeared. According to Islamic teachings
all prophets before him were muslims Adem, Nuh (Noah), Ibrahim, Musa (Moses), Daud
(King David who estabished the first islamic state), Suleiman... but
religion and its scripts were corupted, God sent Isa (who was just a prophet) but his
folowers corrupted his message again and created christianity. Muhamed was to set it all
to its origins. During his night jorney, al-miraj, from Mecca to Jerusalem, in a blink of an
eye on a winged horse called al-Buraq, God gathered earlier prophets around foundation stone,
al-sakhra, on the ruins of Suleimans mosque, where Muhamed led them in prayer.
After liberating Jerusalem from christians, muslims rebuilt the temple by building Al-aqsa
and Qubbat al-Sakhra which is oldest preserved muslim shrine.
Factions:
Jew
After wars in 1948 and 1967 Israel was created for the fist time after more than 2 milennia,
which started a process of redemption for jews. But zionists who established it where
secular atheists and failed to reestablish the country on Gods laws. That is where you come in
to play. You play as a radical religous/zionist, messianist with the ultimate goal being removing
obstacles from Har ha-Bayit in order to create preconditions for rebuilding the Temple where
it once stood and starting messianic era where jewish messiah will rule the world.
Muslim
After almost 14 centuries, muslims being longest lasting civilization in Jerusalem, are driven out
by jews and christians, islamic Jerusalem as a third holiest place in Islam is endangered.
You play as a son of palestinian refugees, member of Hamas, veteran of war in Bosnia and Palestine
engaged in Jihad against infidels in order to protect and preserve Haram al-Sharif with its mosques and shrines.
Christian zionist
Movement can be traced from english Puritans in times of Oliver Cromwell to Evangelicals in
conteporary USA, numbering between 50 and 70 million adults making largest religous and political block
in the country. According to book of Revelation or the Apocalypse Jews will be brought back to Jerusalem,
rebuild the temple and trigger the second coming of Christ who will come and fight false jewish messiah
and establish millenial kingdom. Hastening the end of the world may be sin for majority of christians
but is yours most sacred religious duty.
In game whole perception of Jerusalem will be different according to your religion, history will be
differently interpreted, locations have different simbolic meaning, streets have different names.
Wailling wall is al-Buraq wall, Temple Mount is Haram al Sharif or Har ha Bayit, Davids tomb was both
a chapel, a mosque and a synagogue each in its own time etc...
I will present it in future in greater details for now just wanted to see would anyone be interested in
something like this (I am going to finish it anyway) just curious.
If this is wrong subforum I am sorry but let me know what you think.
