Anyone can choose the Pope. The prize is “the eternal glory”

An online game was created in Italy, where you can choose the pope. Users are tasked with identifying the name of Pope Francis' successor.

The players will not be financially rewarded for hitting with the successor on the throne. Their reward is to be “the eternal glory” due to the fact that the creators – technology specialists and AI – declare themselves opponents of gambling.

Interestingly, the game debuted respective months before Pope Francis died. Currently, its users' appointments are mostly coincident with media speculations about the fresh pope – led by the president of the Italian Episcopal Conference Cardinal Matteo Zuspi.
