Christian Video Games

If I ever have time to make another video game (it will be a while) I want to make one like this:

Yes, by today’s standards it’s lame. But at the time it (to me) was awesome. A Christian Zelda clone. It doesn’t get any better than that.

The concept is so simple. Run around converting people to Christianity with the fruits of the spirit, the armor of God, and learning about Scripture to increase your faith.

I played this game for maybe a week as a kid (until I had to give it back to the person I borrowed it from) and I retained a TON of what I learned about the Bible because of it. I’d love to see a modern Zelda clone version of this game…

Anyone know of any good Christian Edutainment that puts fun before education like this one does (and therefor actually gets you to play it, and then you actually learn from it)?
