The Bible Game is a Christian party game developed by Mass Media Inc. and published by Crave Entertainment. It is aimed at Christians and is “family-friendly.” There are a variety of trivia questions related to the Old Testament. The main two modes are “TV Game Show” and “Challenge Games.” The latter lets players choose any minigame.
The PlayStation 2 and Xbox versions received “mixed or average reviews,” while the Game Boy Advance version received “unfavorable” reviews, according to the review aggregation website Metacritic.[13][14][15] G4TV writer Greg Bemis was critical of the game in his review of the Xbox version. They criticized the game show mechanic and felt that most mini-games were of poor quality, though they felt there were a couple that were the exception.[11] CiN Weekly PJ Hruschak called it a “cheesy game show,” though felt that it would appeal to young children, and adults will appreciate its “innocent humor.” They also felt that the price point made it a good pick for children to enjoy.[12] IGN writer Juan Castro felt it lacked the “biblical depth” to attract religious people, while also criticizing the mini-games as not being engaging. However, they noted that if a parent was looking for a cheap, non-violent game for their kids, they “could definitely do worse.”[7] IGN writer Mark Bozon’s review of the Game Boy Advance version was critical, pointing out how poor the gameplay is and how many bugs it has.[6] Eurogamer writer John Walker felt that it was “well-presented” and “contemporary in design” but still “shallow.” They felt that there was only a small niche of people who might enjoy it.[3] In discussing mainstream Christian video games, Vice author Emanuel Maiberg described The Bible Game as one of the better examples of a game that came close to the mainstream.[16] GameSpot writer Bob Colayco was critical of the game, calling it “mediocre.” They felt that it would be a Christian family friendly product and felt they would enjoy its “commercial Christian pop soundtrack.” They felt that the mini-games were “basic” and lacking in variety.[5]
The Bible Game was featured at E3 2005 and was playable at demo kiosks.[1] It was developed by Mass Media, Inc. and published by Crave Entertainment. When asked why they chose to publish a religious game, Crave Entertainment Rob Dyer exclaimed that he wanted to try publishing a different kind of game, given the similarity between Crave’s catalogue of games, citing games such as Tomb Raider. Dyer wanted to make a nonviolent game, but also wanted to avoid making a preachy one either. Dyer explained that he did not make the game for personal religious reasons; rather, he desired to fill niches that other publishers did not.[2]
