Gaming With A Christian Flare
With all the hardcore gaming out there to chose from, I thought I'd offer the following info to those parents or teens who may be looking for something with a "faith" flare to it. I don't own any of these, but if I were looking for one I just might consider one of the following.
BibleMan, published by Talicor
Players try to rescue six children and deliver them safely to the town church. Rules for a basic version (children 3 to 6) and an advanced version (ages 7 and up) are both included.
Credo, published by Chaosium
An irreverent negotiation game about the politics of the Council of Nicea. Players debate what should be in the creed, using the influence of bishops and a little backstabbing to get their pet lines into the final product.
La Foi et la Glaive, published by Azure Wish
Players spread religion through dark-age Europe, controlling both a religious and a temporal power.
Left Behind, published by Talicor
Based on the best-selling novel, the game has two parts -- one in which players work separately to earn tokens and one in which they work together to defeat Carpathia.
Mad Monks and Relics, published by Simulations Workshop
Players are monks searching for relics (including the Holy Grail).
Redemption: City of Bondage, published by Cactus Game Design
Biblical heroes are challenged to rescue lost souls held captive by the evil hordes. Based on the Redemption collectible card game.
Solomon's Temple, published by Cactus Game Design
Players compete to build and furnish the Temple of Solomon while fending off Babylonian armies.
As always, keep the play time to a minimum and the Bible reading time to a max. Have fun, but not to much!
In Christ,
GreyBear
