Shameful. Disgusting. ‘‘Orthodox Video Game Targets Pussy Riot A video game was showcased at a recent Russian Orthodox youth festival in Moscow that encourages players to “kill” members of the feminist punk-rock collective Pussy Riot, Radio Liberty informs. In the game, “Don’t Let Pussy Riot Into The Cathedral,” players use an Orthodox cross to snuff out the balaclava-clad women before they enter a domed white church. Throughout the game, Pussy Riot’s “Punk Prayer For Putin,” which some of them performed in Moscow’s Christ the Savior Cathedral in February 2012, earning three of them jail terms, plays in the background. When the Pussy Rioters enter the church in the game, they reappear atop the church with horns on. The building gradually falls into disrepair and ominous clouds gather. A version of the game, which used the name “Inquisition,” was posted online late last year. Neither the Orthodox Church nor any representative of Pussy Riot has commented publicly on the game.
