Summary:The paper analyzes the model of divinity in the god-game videogame genre in the light of the player-centered approach. The player-centered approach focuses on the available interaction between a player and the gameworld. The challenge that god-games offer to a player is to be a god for a certain world or a group of followers. The success of a player-god depends on collaboration with its followers.
