God Simulator
"God simulator" usually refers to strategy games, but occasionally other genres are also encountered. The player in such a simulator does not control a character or a group of characters. They can indirectly influence the heroes in various ways: building structures, altering landscapes, creating global objectives, summoning new characters. The actions of the heroes are deliberately made diverse and detailed to make it interesting to watch them in anticipation of the next possible action.
