| Oddbrother | This pre-installed package is locked to only the New International version of the Bible's verses. With a clean installation, we will be able to access different versions. | |

I say this game is fenomenal, although I too can't decide if this was a serious attempt, or just a sarcasm. For example noone can seriously say rainbows are not just light reflected by water in the atmosphere, because that it is. Otherwise the graphic is nice, the gameplay is smooth... Than came the problems. First, the saves. In case you die you just restart from the nearest chapel. BUT all the trap-rooms are re-activated too. Not that I ever seen a trap-room which had two entrances, still... The stuff stay dead if you properly reload. Any cyber on corridors stays dead either way. Second, the actual fights. Matching/countering the phrases are good way to learn some skill of understanding texts. This is still true if you don't accept the interpretation of the texts. But the actual sword-shield battle is just too fast. Defense is a must, but there is no time to get cover when the attack started. And it is though trial&error to figure out when you are supposed to attack (each time a specific animation must happen). Third thing is, I got stuck. There are 4 ways to go at the moment to try to go, but neither of my phrases work anywhere. I suspect to blame the random engine for this, and is permanent.

For the game's intended audience, it does. Anyone else is unlikely to touch this title with a ten foot pole, so *shrug* |

| michaeltheangeldude | Where's the study guide that comes with the game? There was like a readme file that had all the answers to the lies | |

| punkassbitch | I see no difference between this game and say, um, Bio Menace. This game suffers from a "bad' Storyline but it certainly isn't the first....or last! | |

I played this game years ago when I was little... I remember the 'bosses' used to scare me... especially the guy in the sheepskin and the guy with all the tubes coming out of him

But I digress... Here are some helpful tips in playing the game: 1. Take advantage of every opportunity to upload your computer Bible with verses at the little blue scripture stations. You will see why later. 2. In every level, there is a victim you must rescue; however, they are guarded by different cybers and it is these cybers you must take on and defeat if you hope to win the game. 3. When you confront each cyber [robot], they will present you with a lie which you must counter with the appropriate Bible verse. Once you have applied the appropriate verse, you will switch into battle mode; while in battle mode, it is VERY important to remember that each cyber attacks and defends itself differently; find out how they attack and defend themselves and use that knowledge to your advantage! (Note that you will hit harder and defend yourself better if you obtain the shield of faith and the sword of the spirit; more on obtaining these later). In closing, look closely at your opponent as some are similar, but attack differently based on the markings on their "outer shell" (ie macho cybers with "Y" on eye-lid shoot spiked stars out of their eye, others without that marking don't). 4. Prayer chapels are important as this is where your "faith meter" is restored (click on it at any time to find out what percentage it is at). To obtain the Sword of the Spirit and Shield of Faith icon, you must have the appropriate verses in order to obtain them (so if you ask for the shield of faith, you must have the Bible verse that deals with the shield of faith). On this note, it is important to mention...the dark hallways; you MUST have the candle icon! I cannot stress this enough! You MUST have it! 5. Finally, once you've soundly beaten those evil cybers up, you must then deal with the victim; now, each victim is different and is dealing with different issues so different Bible verses and different approaches are necessary if you're going to deal with each victim correctly. I'll let you figure that all out for yourself though (I don't want to tell you everything!) 6. There are other "special" things that you will discover as you play the game; the jump room, the leech cyber, the special level where you can fly, the uni...oops! Don't want to tell you everything! So there you have it... Enjoy! ~ JD |

Some helpful tips... Yes, you'll need Dosbox...and just drag and drop "CB.exe" over top of "dosbox.exe" and it should be functional. If there's no sound, download Vdmsound and drag and drop it over top of "setsnd.bat"; and then, drag "cb.exe" over top of "dosbox.exe" and it should then be fully functional--with sound and effects. A note to the critics; there are actually other "religious" games that are on the market. I do remember specifically reading of one on Mobygames that taught children hinduism and also, speaking of Hinduism, my mind is flashing images of the game "Nirvana" and another game where you had to navigate through a maze and rescue different incarnations of Vishnu before the time clock ran out (or before the bad guy got 'im, can't remember which at the moment). So Captain Bible isn't the ONLY religious game that's out there... And oh, one last thing... I Am Alive makes mention of an earthquake god; should we label IT propaganda too? If it IS some kind of propaganda game, then I'd say it would be a massive promotional for bottled water.  I mean...think about it; three guys chasing a scrawny kid around for some water (and not just ANY water but BOTTLED too)? You know what I think it is? I think it's a CONSPIRACY!
