| One of the more insane games...not because of the nature of the card game itself, but because the opponent is a God. They have cheat abilities so yeah, technically, it's a match against a cheater. But hey, Fay's team didn't back down. Even their newest member Nel has a presence here. I just find it almost amusing what they have to face in this series but I suppose they wanted to ramp up the difficulty. |
 |
| Let the next game begin. Gremoire, a shape-shifting god who takes the form of the person she's competing against, challenged Fey and the others with the "Three Cheats that God Brings." The contest was to uncover the same cheating trick used in coin flipping, poker, and Old Maid. However, the opponent is a god who can do anything. What kind of cheating are they using? After finishing the game of Old Maid, Fey suggested playing another round and said that in the next game, he would break her unbeatable streak. These games never fail to disappoint me. |
 |
| I thought that Fay was supposed to beat the goddess to erase a Nel loss (don't remember if it was supposed to be all her losses) but he ended up getting swept until they played an extra game of Old Maid where he did finally win. The win condition ended up being that Fay had to explain the goddess' cheat which he did finally figure out although he also sacrificed some of his wins. |

I'd just say one thing, the ppl who're responsible for this anime's terrible ratings must be totally retarded
| @futuretechfreak It's the current anime culture, watch 1 or 2 episodes and rate it as is, if there's no pretty lights then it's trash. |
 In most cases, the MAL Average Scores don't mean anything, here is a question: were the works made before 2000 all shit? Why are they so damn scarce in the Top 50? Think about how MAL is quite literally a filtered amount of the Anime fanbase. Here's a timeline of the Top 15 in which you can check that, almost always, the scores are affected by the freshness, popularity and other factors that have nothing to do with quality. |
| Probably the best episode yet |

| Grimoires cheat being the powers of your friends is a good twist. Getting forcibly summoned into an unfair game like I wanna be the guy or Cat Mario is wild. But getting stuck there for two whole days? I wonder if this god behind this has a bone to pick. |

| The game in this episode was arguably the most enjoyable one. Mainly because did not have Faye pull a deus ex machina by using information that the audience wasn't privy to. Whether or not the series can sustain this aspect for the final 3 episodes remains to be seen. |
| The whole allies strategy was interesting. I didn't see that one coming. This next one will be dangerous... |
 |
| This 'found the cheat' game still looking ridiculous as usual for the sake of Fay looking cool and being a smart-ass guy. Since Grimoire herself showed to lower her guard down by letting Fay repeat their last old maid game, unable to realize Fay's doing to checking out his guess, and then, he winning. Idk how on earth you don't call it 'deus ex machina'. While i am certainly think the plot kinda nice by itself, but still, the execution is 'not my taste'.... Next! So, Uroboros lookin pretty mad there, must be tired searching Fay in-between God's realm all those time. Now a certain God invite 209 poor Apostle into an unbelievable dungeon exploration game with no-time to quit. Fay need to forget his mind to win the game, instead, just enjoy laying down there with all the girls in those peaceful landscape. The unknown God must be setting up something like that. Right? |
 Hide and seek is the best offline games on this fatamorgana-called-world-thing. Please comment nicely. I am newbie here. I'm level  on mal-badges. View my badges  |
| Gremoire's Casino of the Gods, along with her Three Cheats game, this is double the psychology, although she still keeps it fair and square. It's up to Fay to decipher Gremoire's Cheat of Certain Victory. Game 1: Coin Flip, and though is a 1-in-2 odds, Fay lost to luck. Onwards to the next game of Poker, Gremoire continues her cheat, but it isn't obvious, so Old Maid will be the deciding game. And as hard as it is, Fay wants another round of Old Maid, just to make sure that he got all of the details right...where the secret is the girls being accomplices to the Cheat using their Arise powers, and Fay wanting to level his team together with the win against Gremoire for a comeback. But as soon as they come back, a game where players are forced into the Labyrinth of No Return where escape only comes by finishing the game, this god is rather finicky, but nothing Fay could not decipher and win against the god, in either an ultra-easy or an ultra-difficult mode, of which Fay and Leshea chose the latter. It's a long road ahead of them, so the peaceful surroundings provide rest...if not for Pearl getting hilariously killed by an apple, serving as their first respawn. What does Uroboros want with Fay and the gang? |

| TBH, the human appearance Gremoire changed into is kinda hawt. What's interesting is... this hawt girl appearance actually exists in the Human world, since Gremoire said she copies someone she met before. And she wants MC to come back to visit her cause she gets bored sitting in a room by herself for thousands of years, since the only time someone comes to challenge her is as a last measure, and not many people knows this challenge. Meanwhile Uroboros barges in and is still tracking down MC and group, lol... . And now they're going into a labyrinth... that apparently doesn't allow you to leave... Hmmm.... this is like a parody to all the anime series that feature players isekai'd into a game world, LOL . LOL @ Pearl getting smashed by Appls But how did she actually "die" from this?... HAHAHA . BTW, judging by all the previous God Games we've seen... I already figured out this Labyrinth's winning condition, it's: "player must die". Since all the previous God Games, all of them have decieving "rules" given to the players and "hints" inside that tells you how to win. |
