Charming little game! However if you're not a Christian, brushing up on the Bible is almost certainly a must in order to make any progress; if you don't really feel like doing that, you're going to get stuck eventually... I mean that, it's not an if, it's a when. It's like being stuck in a trivia gameshow for a piece of media you're not into (in this case the Christian Bible I guess) that keeps making references you don't get. This is a text parser game after all, so mashing at things until they work is a much greater effort and time-consumer than the contemporary gamer might be used to, and is effectively impossible in the sections that require you to type in exact answers.
Me myself, I got stuck at the dwarf. Praying (an action you can take!) wasn't giving me any more clues. I also ran out of carrying capacity, unsure if it was safe to drop or take off anything. Although I have my doubts that having been able to pick up that one wooden plank in the woods would have saved my attempt. Maybe next time I'll try and map things out on paper as I explore so the forest and ocean are less daunting.
All in all, felt a little too hyperfocused on an anticipated exclusively Christian audience to the point of being basically impossible for curious other kinds of players, but what I played was entertaining. The graphics were nice, and exploring was fun. I recommend checking it out if one is curious to try a modern-hardware-compatible old-fashioned text parser game or are interested in the TAB game maker program especially.
