FAQ Information This is a Walkthrough to help you get through the game step-by-step. Pay attention to the advice provided in this guide as it'll help lead you to victory against both computers (who are quite cheap, actually) and your friends. Enjoy! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 3. Game Information Title: The Bible Game Platform: Xbox/PS2 My Rating: 6.2/10 Number of Players: 1-4 Simultaneous ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 4. Version History Version 1.0 – Format established. Almost, if not all, information is filled in. There is room in the guide for improvement, though. Version 1.1 - Edited Thank You section; added closing notes; added 1UP to list of sites eligible to host my guide. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 5. Game Show Rules First thing you need to know is that every character starts off with 100 points to get you started. The game automatically chooses which character gets to go first. It's totally random and totally unpredictable so don't get any ideas. ;) Jackpot You'll notice on the top left of the screen, when taking your turn, an icon of a pot with gold can be seen. Every round, the point value in the Jackpot increases ever so slightly. If there was only one space left on the board to choose from, you'd have a 1 in 4 chance of getting the Jackpot. If it's not the Jacpot, it's gonna be the "Wrath of God". You gonna risk it? Testament Trivia In this game, one out of 1500 available questions will be randomly selected and asked to all players. Each player must choose the best answer they feel is correct. Each player can enter in only one answer. The faster you answer, the more points you will recieve, even if you get the wrong answer. If you get the answer incorrect, a total of Zero will be shown. If you were in control of the board at the time when the game was activated, you will automatically lose control of the board so choose carefully! Do Unto Others This space is good for those in last place. In a span of 10 seconds, you must choose from rapidly appearing options. Some of these options involve giving a turn away, giving points away, or even playing a game and giving points earned away. Challenge Games There are twelve biblical-based, four-player challenge games that enable you to win points. View the Challenge Game section for more detailed information on each of the Challenge Games. Be sure to use these games to your advantage if you are pretty far behind or if you want to secure your position in first place. Blessing Games There are eight single-player games that you will play in order to win points. View the Blessing Game section for more detailed information on each of the Blessing Games. Remember, it's all you in these games. Commandment This game allows you to choose from rapidly appearing options that will allow you to take points from heaven, all other players, or a single player, and then randomly choose from one of three point values. The Wrath of God There is always a Wrath of God space on the board and the player that triggers it, well, all points for that round will be totally lost but previous round points will not be hindered at all. Be careful, though, because this could very well be the Jackpot Square as well but can you handle the pressure? Is it really worth risking your points for? The Grace of God This is the final round after the game time has totally elapsed. There will be eight icons dangling from "The Tree of Knowledge". Each choice will either be a fruit or a snake. Each time a fruit is selected, you win points. However, an interesting twist, the next fruit is worth twice as much - so add this to your previous score from the first fruit! - and the next is worth three times as much and so on. The player with the least amount of points from the main game will go first and the player with the most points will go last. The player who recieves the most points at the end of this special game will be declared the overall winner! Don't let your guard down, now! Also, be careful to know when to call it quits because if you get the snake, you'll lose all your points from the round! Exercise good judement. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 6.
