Holy War is a 1979 board wargame published by Metagaming Concepts.

Gameplay

Holy War is a game in which an immense space-dwelling creature has enclosed a cosmic anomaly within itself, and created a pocket universe in which intelligent life developed, ultimately leading to a religious schism.[1]

Reception

Eric Goldberg reviewed After the Holocaust in Ares Magazine #1, rating it a 2 out of 9.[1] Goldberg commented that "The rules to Holy War are extremely difficult to decipher, and, as the game is interpreted by the designer, only one side may win."[1]
