   A game is asking my character to sign over his soul. There's no option to refuse, and it was addressed to the character's name that I entered, but isn't my name.
   
   This wouldn't be a valid contract, right? Surely there's no actual souls being harvested by shitty free to play mobile games?

     Ah, of course, IT isn't just demons, it's also voodoo. How could that have slipped my mind?

     @Maltheus I wouldn't say yes to that contract, but to my way of thinking you created that wee little avatar of yourself on the screen, given it a name you liked, that shitty little free to play mobile game has a tiny idealized symbol of you in it and it's asking for that little voodoo doll's soul.
     
     Shoulda just paid for the micro transactions, mate. That only feels soulless.
