The Bible Game for PlayStation 2 casts players as contestants on a game show with fast-paced, "beat the buzzer" action and a comical off-screen announcer as emcee. 20 mini- and micro-games with 1,500 questions reinforce inspirational Old Testament teachings such as Jonah and the Whale, David and Goliath, The Tower of Babel, and many more. Multiplayer mode for up to 4 players encourages family members of all ages to play together, and provides a fun alternative for family game nights...The Bible Game for Game Boy Advance combines action/adventure play style with trivia challenges.Here is hoping that the concept has gotten better with age. If the questions are even semi-challenging, it might work. But color me skeptical.

"The Bible Game" for GBA and PS2
Several years back, a few of our kids stayed overnight for Midwinter Quiz at a home which had some Bible-based games for the old Nintendo Entertainment System. "Bible Adventures" was an underwhelming attempt to market a non-threatening game to parents desperate for some game without a violent theme. Not exactly a game that demanded a follow-up. But it seems someone is willing to try.
