"They can't tax what we freely give to one another"
The historical Jesus wasn't crucified for theology. He was crucified for telling people to stop using Roman money. The Way is the game that takes that seriously.
In the game, you proclaim the Jubilee — the Torah law that cancels all debts every 49 years, conveniently unenforced for three centuries. You reorganize the Galilee fishing industry into cooperatives that cut out the Magdala monopoly. You build a gift economy across fourteen villages where no denarius changes hands — and Roman tax revenue drops to zero.
A centurion files a report: "Not a rebellion. Something worse. An alternative."
The game tracks debts forgiven as a core stat. Your epilogue changes based on how many people you freed from the debt system. The more radical your economics, the more the Temple and Rome close in — but also the more resilient the network you leave behind.
