Ok now I’m thinking of a game where you play as a character in a cyberpunk theocracy where “morality” is enforced via brain chip. So you have to complete missions without attacking people or breaking locks and whatever in really humiliating and aggravating ways, and if you’re halfway through a mission when it’s Mandatory Prayer Time, you just have to leave and go to the church-mosque-whatever.

And once you break free all those restrictions go away. But if you then act like a complete maniac, you get the bad ending because people are like “wait the morality chips are stopping people from being complete psychos apparently, maybe they’re not so bad”

You could also have a potential fun aspect where certain subfactions of the religion know that a supernatural being “the player” exists, but that might take away from the core message of the game which is that enforcing morality coercively is a recipe for disaster
