Bible Game - Xbox

Finally, there's a fun, family game, with good, wholesome, Biblical morals and values!!!I bought the GameBoy Advance version also, because it is a completely different game than the Xbox version. (Read my review for GameBoy Advance.)Ok, the best place to start is the beginning. In this case, let's begin at the game menu:When the game is finished loading, you see the Menu screen. On this screen, there is High Scores, Options, TV Game Show, and Challenge Games.I'll start with TV Game Show:You are now in the character selection screen. You can either play alone, against 3 computer players, or play with friends, and family; 4 players can play together. Once you have selected your charater(s), the game begins...The name of the game is "Do Unto Others". The host is introduced, and starts the game by randomly selecting who will go first. There is a Game Board, with colorful, numbered squares. The chosen player gets to select a square:Ok, behind the square, anything can happen. Anything ranging from Testament Trivia to The Wrath of God could be waiting behind any given square. Here is a list of things that you could find:Testament Trivia: If you find this behind your square, the host will ask all of you a question from the Old Testament. (you can go into the options screen and adjust the difficulty of the questions). If you get the question correct, your turn continues, and you choose another square; if you get it wrong, your turn ends, and the next player takes his/her turn.Challenge Games: These games for for everyone. Too many games to mention, but they are all related to the Old Testament Bible. Games include David and Goliath; False Idols; The Walls of Jericho. Fun games.Blessing: This is a one player game. Fun games, like; Follow The Light; Angels and DevilsCommandment: If this is revealed, the player gets to select who they recieve points from; Heaven, Leader, Everyone. And the amount of points.Do Unto Others: The player who gets this square unselfishly helps out another player; This could mean giving another player points, giving up your turn to that player, playing a game and giving the points earned to that player. You have only 10 seconds to make a choice, and the options flash on the screen pretty quickly...The Wrath of God: Did I mention that you can end your turn anytime, and pass to another player? You don't want to be the one who opens this sqaure!!! The Wrath of God square works two different ways. The most common is a player opens this square, and you see a plague of frogs, locusts, or another plague all over the screen, and the host will say you have lost your points, and that round is over (there are as many rounds as time allows; you play until the clock runs out). The second, less common way, there may be only one square left on the board; another player could pass their turn to you. You have no choice but to open the square and reveal this rapidly spinning box; Ok, now, on this box 3 of the 4 sides have a Wrath of God, 1 side has a jackpot (oh, on the upper lefthand corner of the screen, you see this jackpot...ok, just forgot to mention before). The box is spinning rapidly; will you stop it in time to chance getting the jackpot, or will you recieve the Wrath of God?Game plays like that for many rounds, number value on the gameboard increases each round, until time runs out.Once time has run out, the host will tell you it's time to move on the the Grace of God:Here's how this works: This is your final chance in the game to build your points up; good thing, especially if you're low on points. You see the Tree from the Garden of Eden. There are ?'s all over it. Behind the ? is either fruit (good) or the serpent(bad). Find the fruit, build up your points; find the serpent, you lose all the points earned in this round.That's the TV Game show.If you choose Challenge Game from the Menu screen, you see the entire list of all the Challenge Games. Once you have selected your character(s), you can select which game you want to play.There needs to be more games like this. I strongly recommend, and support this game. I encourage everyone to buy both this version and the GameBoy Advance version(plays entirely different, read my review for GameBoy Advance).

I love this game! I've purchase a second BIBLE GAME to give away for the Holidays!The variety of games, levels, and just the thoughtfulness that went into it made it so much fun. It is challenging yet achievable. My nephew and I stayed up ALL NIGHT playing it the first night, and my nieces joined in in the days following. It has been such a blessing playing the Bible Game that I've been taking the game to my 5 &6th grade Bible study class and showing all my student's parents!

My kids can easily operate the game and it is easy to figure out the rules...all on a game that reinforces what they learn at church with a few cool twists. It is challenging but very engaging. The music is first rate contemporary artists. It isn't lame, cheesy, or hokey like some Christified media can be. My kids love it. My wife even played a game with them. Lots of levels and game options. We love it and what it teaches as well!

Would recommend this game to all the game lovers who want to play something positive.

The shipper did their job and got the game to me quickly. I was very excited to use this game to relate to my Sunday School class (4th and 5th graders). Bought a new 4GB XBOX. Put in the game and it said I needed an external hard drive. Called around and was told I had to upgrade the XBOX to the 250 GB model - did it, and still the game doesn't work. Apparently this game only works on the original XBOX system :-( I am very disappointed and hope "they" will update it soon to work on the current systems.

We have this game for our PS2 and I thought it would be fun to buy it for my son's xbox. It wouldn't play. I have no idea why. The player is less than a year old and plays all other games fine. I'm not sure if it is a defect or that it won't play on a newer xbox. I would just wanted to caution a potential buyer. The PS2 version is great though!

This game DOES NOT work on XBOX 360. So, it was a waste for me to even by it. If this would have been specified when it was sold, then I would not have even bought it! But oh well!! Now I know.

This is a wonderful game. The children and adults love playing it. Purchased as a gift for a 7 year old.

It was really easy to order, and it came faster than expected. My children really enjoy this game it's very hard to find.
