It is crazy to think that even juniors in college can take a day off from typical work in the classroom and have an activity day in class and play religious video games. If you are looking for a cool website to play fun, simple, yet super challenging video games that each relate to religion and the Bible in one way or another www.biblegamezone.com is the site for you. Thanks to my Religion in the New Media, professor I was able to play and try out each of the 15 games offered on the site. However, if I had to recommend my top 2 favorite games, it is between Hearts and Two of Each Kind. Hearts was actually extremely challenging but had me addicted, and once I tried I couldn't stop playing and kept trying to get a better score. In the game Hearts, a bunch of words in both red and blue appear on the screen, and your goal is to only let good words (blue words) go into the hearts and close the hearts for the bad words (red), when Jesus comes across the screen you also let him in for extra points. You can open and close the hearts by clicking on them, and you collect points for every good word you let in. The more good words you let pass or bad words you let in, the more hurt the hearts get and eventually they stop beating and you lose the game. The game Hearts clearly relates to religion with the concepts of good and bad, Jesus, and the act of opening ones heart. My other favorite game is called Two of a Kind, your classic matching game. In this game, all animals in the Ark come in pairs, and your goal is to find as many matches as you can. However, the more you match the harder it gets, and you have very few attempts to get all the matches. The connection to religion for the game Two of a Kind was a bit more obvious in reference to Noah's Ark. Like the other game, I was not particularly good at this game, but I played at least 15 times in a row, losing was that addicting! I definitely recommend this website for all those religious computer game lovers out there, or anyone really who likes playing games and having fun! #authenticreligion #religion #religioninthenewmedia #biblegamezone #funfunfun
