According to Kim Pallister, Microsoft's casual game guy, Bible Fight is "the most sacrilegious game ever."
It is a straightforward Streetfighter-style game, in which you and your opponent (either controlled by the computer or by someone else whanging on the other side of the keyboard) punch and kick each other until one or the other achieves victory.
As with other games of this style, there are a variety of characters, each of whom has his own combo moves that do extra damage, if you can hit the right key combination quickly enough.
Except that--the characters are Mary, Eve, Jesus, Moses, Noah, and Satan. And the special moves are things like Mary's Halo Toss, and Jesus's Loaves and Fishes.
In the image above, Moses is hurling a Tablet of Laws into Jesus.
Original game design? We think not. Hilarious? Yes.
And designed by Pop&Co, formerly PopNYC, one of New York's preeminent digital design firms. Go, Vincent.
Bible Fight is HILARIOUS
I'm terrible at this game, just like I was terrible at Mortal Kombat...but it's still hilarious good fun.
Funny idea...
...and nice cartoony graphics, I just didn't find it that fun to play. Got more enjoyment from reading everyone's special moves than actually using them! Great idea though
Haha, Good Memories
Oh man, I remember back in middle school, when I was practically obsessed with fighting games, I made plans for a Bible Fighters 2(There was no BF 1, it was a joke game anyway) and had lots of characters, a story mode, and plenty of crazy moves and settings. I never made it because of a lack of graphics and programming skill...The great thing was that I was at a Catholic school, too.But this makes me want to learn Flash programming and art to make it real!
