The Story of the Bible

I thought this was a great game. It was very interesting and tells a story that's pretty relevant today even for non-Christians as it tells us the mindset of people back then and tells us about a massive religious influence today. There were a few Biblical mistakes, like the Serpant not actually being Satan but being an actual Serpant in the original story and "40 Days and Nights" being a phrase that meant a long time rather than an actual period of time. Other than that I thought it was pretty interesting.

Very good!
I thought Barrabas was a murderer though, not a thief?

I'm ashamed of what I rated this in 2011.

Spoilers below.

I just wish it had branching. It had so much potential, and the perfect setup for an alternate history of the bible, but ended up just being a quiz instead. I guess that was the purpose, but it didn't even do what a quiz is supposed to and tell me my score, instead just giving me answers.
All the "alternate choices" end in a sentence or two. Even if there aren't any alternate paths, at least write a few paragraphs elaborating on society's collapse after Adam enslaves Eve.
On top of everything else, there were retry links. I could accept this if it worked like a quiz and told me my score at the end, but it didn't even do that.
I did learn some facts about the Bible, which was good, though.
Just for making me click through boring question after boring question, I'm giving this a 3/8, and that's quite generous.

Give. Me. Endgame. Links.

It wasn't really a story game now was it? You could have written more for the different choices. You also could have straight up made it a quiz. You also could have given an end-game link when you want to change it instead of a retry. Did you do any of this? No. Did it affect my rating of this story? Yes.

The only reason I'm rating this a 3/8 is that I never read the bible so I gleaned some information about it from this game... I guess. Not sure how reliable the narrator is about the bible. For all I know it could all be just some fanfiction bs, considering it IS in that category.

Either way, this story does not have any choices. Any that aren't "canon", I guess, immediately send you to a page telling you you fucked up and that you should retry. Why aren't there end-game links? I personally happen to like the ending where Adam enslaves Eve and makes her work the fields, I'd love to have ended my adventure then and there. And at first, at least there was a sentence or two detailing the choice I made and detailing something about the consequences. Eventually, you even stopped doing that so it was just dull picking and going back to choose the "right" option. If the alternative choices were a bit longer, and consistent, I'd probably have rated this a lot higher.

I feel the power of Jesus.

it would be nice to derail the bible with your choices. good game

Nice. A Catholic who doesn't frequent church much here, but still found this a fun retelling. Could be longer, but i understood your focus on the main events.
