Question

I downloaded a game and it asks a player to sacrifice some food as a sacrifice and to pray and to emmulate, etc as part of game. Is it ok to do so? Or should I uninstall the game?

Answer

This seems like some type of a shirk and hindu or shaytani practice.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
