Christ Centered Gamer

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


Christ Centered Gamer is a Christian oriented games review website. Despite this admitted religious bias, their mission is to be truthful regarding both the gameplay and other secular features of their game and give an honest review of their quality, then they assign a separate moral score based on how the game lines up with Christian moral values.

Tropes used in Christ Centered Gamer include:
  • Agree to Disagree: They have a certain Christian outlook, but acknowledge there are many different Christian denominations, so their view of Christian ethics may not align with others and so elect to exercise this trope in those cases.
  • As the Good Book Says...: Their site has a random Bible quotation on the front page each day.
  • Censorship Bureau: Defied. They do not call for censorship nor encourage it.
  • Holier Than Thou: They work hard to avoid this. If anything, they consistently respect differences of moral opinion and always stress their readers should make their own judgment after weighing the facts presented.
  • The Messiah: Their views of Jesus fall squarely into this trope.
  • Moral Guardians: In a way. They admit without shame they want to review games with a Christian outlook, and will address content in games a Christian might find objectionable, but they also want their readers to follow their own conscience after weighing the evidence.
  • Nice Guy: The general tone of the reviews. Even when listing off morally objectionable topics they try to be polite about them.
  • Saintly Church: Their Statement of Faith definitely has an emphasis on this focus on the Christian outlook.
  • Think of the Children: Subverted. While they will obviously point out games with child unfriendly content, they point out game ratings should be enough of a warning that children should be able (with parental oversight) to make informed decisions about prior to playing or purchasing said games.
  • Will Not Tell a Lie: Their ethics page explains as follows:

The ninth commandment is to tell the truth and as Christians, integrity is very important to us and our readers. We expect all of our volunteer reviewers to be honest about their opinions and influences in the reviews they are writing for us. If a product was sent to us to review, we will disclose that information. Christ Centered Gamer will not accept financial, personal or editorial assistance in the review writing process. If a company advertises with us, we will disclose that information in our reviews as well. Christ Centered Gamer is partially funded by advertisers. Money earned from banner revenue goes towards hosting costs, games, and gaming hardware. A majority of our editing and reviewing staff are volunteers. All of our reviews are opinions, but we all follow the same reviewing standards when calculating the moral score of a game. Christ Centered Gamer will not provide positive reviews for financial gain, nor will we remove negative reviews if asked. The only condition for a game's score to be changed is by replacing older reviews with higher quality ones following our current review standards.
