In this clicker game, students stepped into the shoes of leaders, setting the groundwork for a new religious movement. Their job was to spread their philosophical beliefs and gather followers. With each tap, they could shape this budding movement into a recognized religion, fueled by the donations and offerings of their loyal supporters.
Their aim? To help students understand the evolution, structure, and sustainability of the world’s religions.
Basics of Religious Idle
- Start with recruiting followers from your relatives. Click on the “Recruit Followers” button to see that they join your movement.
- When you get a specific number of followers, you can name your religion and its deity.
- Over time, people will hear your philosophy, and more people will want to join you.
- Adopt the principle that unity is strength, and take as many people as possible.
Donations of Your Followers
- Gathering Spot
- Shrine
- House of Worship
- Mega Temple
- Divine Monument
In “Religious Idle,” players navigate through different stages of their movement’s growth, starting from a small cult and evolving into a recognized religion. Initially, players attract a small number of followers, representing the early stages of their movement’s development. As players progress and gain more influence, their movement transitions from being perceived as a cult to a fully-fledged religion. This progression is explained within the game’s mechanics and narrative, reflecting the real-world dynamics of religious evolution and expansion.
Assign Your Zealots
Your religious buildings will need recruiters, fundraisers, preachers and crusaders as you make progress. You need to assign zealots to these specific tasks.
For example, every House of Worship, Mega Temple and Divine Monument you build will need a preacher. Without a preacher, those buildings have no meaning.
- Recruiters: Enable you to recruit 1% more followers.
- Fundraisers: Earn you extra tithe money per follower.
- Preacher: Preach people in larger buildings.
- Crusaders: Help you to find valuable ancient relics.
Use the Ancient Relics
The relics your crusaders have found will let you conduct a census of the religion, control your zealots well, and get doubled Crusade XP.
They will also double the number of relics the Crusaders are after. Furthermore, they can increase the number of zealots and the income the tithes produce.
You can find the names of the Relics below.
- Defendit Numerus
- Labor Omnia Vincit
- Gaudia Certaminis
- Aurum Potestas Est
- Tempus Edax Rerum
In summary, this simulation has provided our Year 7 students with a clearer understanding of how religions evolve over time, starting small and growing into recognized movements. They’ve also learned about the various factors that help religions thrive, such as beliefs, follower involvement, and effective leadership. Through exploring these ideas, they have gained valuable insights into the complexities of religious development and sustainability.
