### 1/5 — Greedy

*2026-04-08*

This game is not free! I thought I finally found a fun Catholic game, but they make you pay about 5 mins into the game. Not Catholic, they are most likely Jewish developers making a quick buck off the back of Christians!

### 3/5 — Cute but needs work

*2026-03-27*

This is a cute little faith game but needs some work. Buildings are not clearly labeled, esp after the symbol disappears. I wasted so much of the in game clock walking to the wrong building. Easy to lose your character after dark. The Bible stories should be clear and not mysterious. If you are talking about Moses, say it’s Moses, not “mysterious prophet” or whatnot. No replay value. Add a high score tracker. Add something unique to make it interesting for future play through. It’s cute but currently it’s a 1 or 2 runs and done since it’s exactly the same and doesn’t even keep scores. What are the score ranges? It says different scores get different endings, but doesn’t seem like it? my two play through seemed to be the same ending? 1 st was 90s/90’s and then 112/112.

### 5/5 — Pray to play for the win!

*2025-11-17*

This game is simple but beautiful. If you’re looking for an addictive experience this is not it. For me, this game is artistic in manner of play. Each day (in game) offers prayers, reflections, meditations, and Catholic education. It’s perfect for mindfulness and offer a unique “pray to play” aspect. The game loses its touch if you don’t take the time to read through the messages and info boxes because that’s where the true content comes in. I hope to see more updates for the UI and graphics. I also think an option to choose between playing as a nun/convent OR monk/monastery would be very cool too.
