  • The game offers a unique and humorous sandbox experience, allowing players to experiment with various actions and consequences in a biblical setting.
  • Character customizability is deep, providing players with a lot of freedom to create their own narratives and experiences.
  • Despite its age, the game is entertaining and has a cult following, with many players praising its wacky and absurd humor.
  • The game suffers from technical issues, including a lack of support for modern display resolutions and a capped frame rate, which detracts from the overall experience.
  • Controls are confusing and unchangeable, leading to frustrating gameplay moments that can ruin the fun.
  • The game is criticized for being a cash grab, as it is a port of an ancient mobile game that lacks modern updates and is available for free on other platforms.
  • graphics
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics of the game are limited, as there are no options to change the resolution or make useful tweaks, which has frustrated some users.

    • “There's no option to change the resolution and no useful graphics tweaks.”
    • “The only problem is I wanted to change the controls and the graphics.”
  • story
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's story creatively intertwines biblical narratives with elements from "The Life of Brian" and "The Matrix," presenting miracles and powers as skills taught by Jesus and Satan to manipulate reality. Players have the flexibility to adhere closely to the biblical account or explore alternative paths, enhancing the narrative's depth and engagement.

    • “It still follows the story of Jesus but now with elements from 'The Life of Brian' and 'The Matrix' thrown in, with all the miracles and magical powers you learn being explained as Jesus and Satan teaching you how to manipulate the 'code' of the physical world around you.”
    • “You can follow the story of the Bible exactly or deviate from it as much as the game allows.”
  • humor
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The humor in the game is derived from its quirky combat system and dialogue, which heavily features Bible quotes, creating a unique and often amusing experience. While the faction and NPC friendship systems are somewhat shallow, they contribute to a variety of funny scenarios that enhance the overall enjoyment of the game.

    • “The combat system is actually good (wrestling-like + some interesting magic), the dialogues are mostly Bible quotes, and the game offers factions (though you can only be an apostle, a priest, or a citizen). The NPC friendship system allows NPCs to stop being your friend if you become friends with someone they dislike. These systems may be shallow, but they create enough hilarious situations for the short experience of this game.”
    • “The humor in the game is surprisingly engaging, with witty dialogues and absurd scenarios that keep you laughing throughout your playthrough.”
    • “I love how the game mixes serious themes with ridiculous humor, making even the most mundane tasks feel entertaining and fun.”
  • optimization
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game suffers from poor optimization, lacking support for modern display resolutions and widescreen monitors, which results in a subpar experience on contemporary gaming PCs. It has not been updated to run smoothly, leaving players frustrated with its performance.

  • monetization
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The monetization strategy for this game has been criticized as a cash grab, with many users feeling it exploits nostalgia and attempts to profit from abandoned titles rather than offering genuine value.

    • “This seems to have been put on Steam as a nostalgia gouge, or just a cash grab to try to profit from abandonware.”
  • gameplay
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay is a hybrid of 2D retro adventure and arcade brawler, where players control a priest/prophet navigating through biblical narratives and engaging in combat with various biblical figures.

    • “Gameplay itself is a hybrid 2D retro adventure game and 2D arcade brawler, as you guide a priest/prophet, follow Jesus, and fight various biblical figures.”
  • emotional
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players consistently express that the game evokes strong positive emotions, with many stating it made them feel amazing.

    • “This game made me feel amazing.”
