The latest Catholic video game to become a virtual reality is “Wanderlight: A Pilgrim's Adventure.” It's a single-player game for computer and tablet in which the player takes on the role of a pilgrim.

“This pilgrim goes on a variety of quests, through a beautiful world, to learn about the Catholic faith and to also learn how to become a disciple of Jesus Christ and shine his or her light in the world.”

Loyola Press, an apostolic work of the Society of Jesus, has developed two versions of the game. The one geared toward school and parish religious education classes can be accessed at wanderlightgame.com. The solo version, for at-home play, can be downloaded from the Google or Apple app stores.

“In terms of the goals for the game, we wanted to be the antithesis of any video game that was ever developed before. So the goal of the game is literally to love and not to hate or kill. The player is a peaceful, peaceful pilgrim and not a warrior, and also the Holy Spirit, represented by a dove, is your helper and your guide, not a weapon.”

As players progress through the seven levels, they can learn about the sacraments, prayer and the lives of the saints.

The game is largely inspired by Ignatian spirituality. In fact, St. Ignatius is the first saint the player meets.

“St. Ignatius said, 'Go in their door and take them out yours.' We feel like this video game, especially in the time of COVID, is a way to go in kids' door and then take them out, to live peaceful, calm, good, healthy, kind lives, and to be disciples of Christ and the Catholic faith.”

“Wanderlight: A Pilgrim's Adventure” is the first computer game of its kind. It's a rare opportunity for families to be catechized together, and for players to be inspired to look for God in all things and live out the faith in the real world.
