A third party developer with papal blessings from the Vatican has released a free smartphone app called JC GO (JC stands for Jesus Christ), a game that’s similar to Pokemon GO, but different in other ways.
In JC GO, instead of catching Pokemon, players have to roam around the world to find Catholic saints and other biblical characters to join their “evangelisation team”. Instead of attacking them, you have to answer some of their questions before they can join your team.
There are also various items sprinkled around JC GO that allow players to eat, drink, and pray. Doing any of these actions will increase your stats. You can even donate to the app and receive in-game currency in return.
What do you think? Let us know in the comments.
UPDATE: A third party developer released this app, but with papal blessing.
