Is it permissible to buy a game that contains strange or alien creatures, knowing that the nature of playing it depends on repeated and unlimited death and return to life?

Since the game is electronic, the mere presence of images of fictional creatures does not make its purchase unlawful. The repeated appearance of a creature after its death in the game to renew roles, and not in the sense of bringing it back to life, does not contradict the creed. Therefore, there is no harm in purchasing it, unless playing it leads to a religiously prohibited act.
