Memorize the KJV Bible in this fun, hangman-style game. Watch the keys disappear as you guess what letters are in the verse, or use your microphone to recite the whole verse and then see if you got it right. - Use the microphone button to say the verse out loud - Entire offline KJV Old and New Testaments - 2 difficulty settings - Reveal the next letter with the ??? button - Easily move to the next verse How To Play ------------------- Choose any verse from the King James Bible. All the letters in the verse will be hidden. When you tap a letter on the keyboard it will appear if it is in the verse. If you get stuck, tap the ??? key to reveal the next letter. Microphone ------------------- Use the microphone button to speak or type the whole verse at once. This mode works really well when you also have the difficulty set to "Verse". As you say the verse you can see the words fill in. Difficulty ------------------- You can choose Verse or Letter difficulty. These effect how many letters you can reveal at a time. In Verse mode every letter in the verse that matches your guess is revealed. In Letter mode only the next letter is revealed if it matches. Letter mode is suprisingly hard, and can be very useful for helping you memorize the verse. Thank you ------------------- I hope you enjoy this app and find it useful.
