Adventures in Odyssey and the Treasure of the Incas (Excellent)
Platforms: PC, Mac
Publisher: Digital Praise, 2005
Get ready for a treasure hunt as you try to solve the mystery of
Eugene's missing parents. You play as Eugene, Connie, and Whit in this
puzzle game. There are also plenty of animated cutscenes and the great
voice acting fans of the series love to help move the story forward.
+ + +
aMazing Bible (Excellent)
This is a different sort of game that has you moving a red and blue ball
simultaneously through different mazes as you walk through the Bible.
Each maze is different, and you can do different things to get through
them, so you won't get bored easily. It's a fun challenge and a review
of major portions of the Bible at the same.

Christian Memory Game (Good)
 |
| Play for free! |
Publisher: Foundation Mir, 2012
This game presents a good variety with 3 difficulty modes (which
determines how many cards on the board) and three themes: Jesus, saints,
or symbols. I would say that the saints theme isn't of much interest,
though, unless you know who is being depicted in the pictures.

Christian Puzzle - Bible Game (Good)
Publisher: iDailybread, 2017
This is a game in which you slide the tiles around until you get them
all lined up correctly to complete the Bible verse and picture. It's a
good learning game because you constantly have to study the verse to put
it in the right order. There's no sound or music to this game, though,
which would make it even more engaging.

The Game of the Bible (Good)
 |
| Play for free! |
Platform: Android
Publisher: GrupoAlamar, 2017
This is a simple kind of game that will have you thinking. You have to
match tiles from one side of the screen to the other, but you can only
do so if they're not surrounded. There are multiple ways to solve each
puzzle, and they get more difficult as you progress in the game. With
125 levels, this app will keep you plenty busy. Plus, it's attractive
and has pleasant sound effects and music. The only downside is that an
ad will play after you complete each puzzle.

Heaven: The Game (Good)
Also known as Journey to Heaven
 |
| Purchase on Amazon on the company website |
Platforms: PC
Publisher: Genesis Works, 2009
This is a beautiful game that, unfortunately (but understandably), has received a lot of hate. You play Joshua, an astronaut, who is taken to Heaven after your ship malfunctions. There, you solve puzzles as you progress deeper and deeper into the landscape of Heaven. It is a very Biblically based game. The problem is that your guide shows a little too much cleavage. But one could argue that in Heaven, we'll all be pure of mind and able to appreciate the beauty of the female form as God created it. Either way, it's definitely worth playing through if you can get past this one visual issue.

Keys of the Kingdom (Good)
This is a fun one for those who like movement puzzles. You solve the
puzzle by blowing up blocks and moving the key to the lock. Sounds
simple, but it does make you think. It also displays a new Bible verse
every time you defeat a puzzle. The verses are the real Keys of the
Kingdom.
+ + +
Pangolin's Puzzle (Good)
 |
| Purchase on Android or iOS |
Platform: Android, iOS
Publisher: Hero Factor Games, 2018
This is a story-based series of challenging logic puzzles, perfect for when you want to exercise your deduction skills.
+ + +
Praise Block (Good)
In this movement puzzle game, you need to get the block that says "You"
through the opening on the other side of the board. But there are other
words blocking your way. These are the attitudes or sins that can get in
our way of praising God.
The key for the puzzle is that you can only move horizontal blocks from side to side and vertical blocks up and down. You earn points based on how many moves it takes you to solve the puzzle, and each one gets a little more difficult. It's a fairly addictive game, and though there are a lot of pop-up ads, you can close them as soon as they show up.

Through the Shadows: The Darkness Revealed (Good)
This is a mysterious, immersive, first-person puzzler/visual novel that
finds you all alone in a world seeking to find the truth. This is the
first of what was to be a series of games that didn't continue, so, as
the creator described it, you can think of it as the first novel in a
series. It's still worth playing, but don't expect a completely tidy
ending.
+ + +
The Tomb of Moses (Good)
Platform: PC
Publisher: Vidia Entertainment, 2009This is a puzzle game with still-decent 3D graphics. Archaeologist Professor Fog has gone missing, and it's your job to go find him. Though not quite true to the Biblical understanding of where Moses is buried, the game still gives valuable information about the Exodus story and the man whom God used to accomplish it.
+ + +
Adventures in Odyssey and the Sword of the Spirit (Fair)
 |
| Purchase |
Platforms: PC, Mac
Publisher: Digital Praise, 2008
This game has a decent story and an animated art style that holds up
fairly well. It also has a mix of puzzles, roleplaying, and platforming.
Unfortunately, the platforming is rather difficult to control, bringing
down the overall gameplay experience.
+ + +
Airship Genesis: Pathway to Jesus (Fair)
I really enjoy the concept of this game. Your time-traveling spaceship
crash lands in Biblical times. Your goal is to find your missing
shipmates and the power cells for the ship. Along the way, you and your
companions discuss spiritual matters and witness Biblical events. The
gameplay, however, is a bit tedious. You're confined to walk on certain
paths and have to swipe for the character to take each step. It's
supposed to be a puzzle to get around certain objects, but the puzzles
aren't challenging at all, even for children.
+ + +
This is an exploratory puzzle game that doesn't quite hit the mark when
it comes to gameplay, though the second game is notably better than the
first.
Gameplay of Nacah
Gameplay of Isles of Derek
