Let's play: Hasidic GAMES that are knock-offs of secular games (with a MORAL twist!)

Hasidic toy stores are filled with games that are Yiddish and have moral lessons. But guess what, they are knock-offs of classical games like Monopoly, Guess Who, Stratego, and more. It's interesting that the games aren't just translated, they are also infused with a whole new set of ethics to fit with the Hasidic value system.

So, as a way to analyze these games, we will play a game. I'll show you a Hasidic game, and you'll guess what classical game it is based on. We'll also talk about the change in ethics and what that tells you about Hasidic values.

Thanks so much for watching! Your eyeballs encourage me to keep putting out content.
