The Bible Game. It’s a game that was originally released on the GBC or GBA; I honestly can’t even remember which… I downloaded a ROM pack for my retropie and discovered it hidden inside. My buddy and I got drunk one evening, and decided to boot it up for shiggles.

It has you running around trying to answer bible verse questions to get keys from demons. It’s the single most boring and unintuitive game I’ve played. It also blatantly got several of the Bible verses wrong. We looked it up online, and there’s also a version that was on the Xbox, but it apparently had wildly different gameplay and was more like a game show, where the players answered trivia questions.

This is not what you are talking about, but reading this reminded me of the "Super Noah's Ark" rom I downloaded in high school which was a reskin of the original Wolfenstein where all the animals were restless meaning that you (Noah) would need to shoot feed at them so they could take their naps.

Super Noah's Ark is on my rg35xx. It's amazing.

My cousin had a couple Bible themed NES games. Spiritual Warfare seemed decent.

There used to be a store called Heaven & Earth that sold all kinds of Christian stuff for Sunday school teachers or whatever plus books, cheap Bible toys, etc. She bought it there.
