Persuade & Believe

🚧 In progress. (Built on Culture and Conviction & Conflict.)

For the player: religion, ideology, custom, reputation, diplomacy, and influence — the social and cultural game.

How memes make it live: doctrine memes carry conviction, so you can spread belief, engineer or exploit a schism, and build reputation through acquaintance memes.

To design

• Founding and spreading a faith, ideology, or custom; becoming a prophet/reformer.
• Reputation: how it’s represented, earned, and spent.
• Diplomacy and persuasion between individuals and factions.
• Exploiting conviction fault lines — reading a brewing schism before anyone else does.
