It is an interesting choice-matter game, where you are the captain of a spaceship, and you need to make different choices. My only pet peeve is that you can't skip scenes on your second playthrough. It is short and free, so there really isn't a reason not to try it out.

I cannot play Playing God because the game never responds to my clicking. It just freezes with only music on. I tried all 4 options of launching the game, from playing Playing God to steam VR mode. None of them worked.
Игра "Playing God" — это настоящее погружение в мир, где вы сами вершитель судеб. Управление ресурсами, развитие цивилизаций и, конечно же, вмешательство в ход истории — всё это доступно игроку. Отличная графика и продуманный геймплей затягивают с первых минут. Возможность наблюдать за последствиями своих решений, видеть, как маленькая деревня превращается в величественную империю, или, наоборот, как неосторожное действие приводит к краху, — это то, что делает игру по-настоящему захватывающей. Есть, конечно, моменты, где баланс мог бы быть чуть лучше, но в целом, это достойный представитель жанра симулятора бога. Однозначно стоит попробовать всем, кто любит стратегические игры с глубоким смыслом.
It was just okay. The alarm was a bit too loud but not unbearable imo. A way to skip scenes or start mid chart would make replayability better. The ending was a let down, I only played it twice but was disappointed it ends so abrupt without any real explanation of your choices or anything.
