They are very, very fun. I really recommend this app if you have a kid that loves David and Goliath, this is an amazing app. You should definitely play. ### 1/5 — Payyyyyyyyyyy *2026-01-10, version 1.0.12* Why me!!!!! I don’t want to pay for 100,000,000 more content I don’t get already! ### 5/5 — This game is awesome! *2026-01-05, version 1.0.12* David is really tough. He is a good shepherd, and he is a good guy. He defeated Goliath with one stone because God gave him strength, and helped him defeat Goliath ### 5/5 — Make more! *2025-12-23, version 1.0.12* Great game, wholesome Bible based game ### 5/5 — Engaging and entertaining *2025-11-02, version 1.0.12* A fun way to learn this bible story. It’s engaging and entertaining. We love it and hope to find more. ### 5/5 — Best game!!! 👍 *2025-07-01, version 1.0.12* This game is so fun! David.Goliath is a story game that tells us David’s story all the way to the David vs Goliath seen! You need to tap the blinking object to keep the story going… also in each level Spike (the crazy sheep who thinks he’s a dog) shows up and if we tap him before he goes away he’ll bark. Also there are tasks we can do in each level like “ find the birds“ or “where is Spike”…oh yeah, and there are also mini games you can do throughout the story. We have to pay $2.99 for the whole story BUT IT IS WORTH IT!! Buy it, you won’t regret it! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ### 5/5 — Awesome app *2025-06-10, version 1.0.12* Awesome game. Teaches the Bible story. ### 2/5 — Liked the app but to play you had to pay *2025-05-05, version 1.0.12* Seems distasteful to have a kids Christian app and allow them to learn and practice but once it was time for the David and Goliath battle you had to pay. Nope not paying ### 5/5 — Coolest game ever made *2025-02-17, version 1.0.12* Very interactive story telling game! Very fun for kids and story is funny and loved playing the free version had to buy the full version Hope to see more games like this. ### 5/5 — Great Game!! *2025-02-15, version 1.0.12* This game is great! My two boys love it and kept begging me to purchase the full game. Thanks for making a fun game and also making it not be outrageously expensive like most games are. ## Frequently asked questions about David vs Goliath ### What is this app about?
