Christian Games for Teenage Parties
Christian Board Games
Cranium: Bible Edition Board Game (Excellent)
One
of my absolute favorite group games. It has everything from charades
and Pictionary to Bible trivia and word puzzles. It's one of those board
games the whole family can enjoy, no matter how old they are.

LifeStories Board Game: Christian Version (Excellent)
This
is a sharing game that's great for getting a group of people to talk.
Use it to get to know some new friends or take it to your youth group to
break the ice.

The Road to Bethlehem Board Game (Excellent)
This
is a game similar to Dungeons & Dragons in that you have one player
who narrates the story and presents you with options. The difference,
of course, is that it's a game for Christians, and you play as yourself,
not a character you make up. As a team, you decide what to do and
participate in real-life active challenges to act out parts of the
story. The game is set up in chapters so that you'll need to play a few
times before you reach the end of the story.

The Ungame Board Game: Christian Version (Good)
Answer questions while racing around the board. This game is a great conversation starter.

Christian Party Games
Apples to Apples: Bible Edition (Good)
One
person says a word and the others use the cards in their hand to try to
best match that word. Like the original game, this version is hilarious
and can be thought-provoking as well.
 |
| Purchase |
Bible Scramble (Excellent)
This
isn't your normal trivia game! You have to spell out your answers using
the tiles before your opponents do or you have to pay up in shekels.
And misspellings also earn you a fee. Once you lose all your shekels,
you're out.

| Purchase |
Get your teammates to guess the right word by giving them verbal clues. You just can't say the most obvious words.
Cranium: Bible Edition (Excellent)
One of my absolute favorite group games. It has everything from charades and Pictionary to trivia and word puzzles.

It's All About that Grace (Good)
This
is a simple game that shows that grace wins over sin every time. It's a
competitive, tongue-in-cheek game that allows you to accuse others of
sin when you have enough Good Works cards. You also have a chance to
draw a sin every time you take a new card. If you're accused or draw a
sin and don't have a grace card, you lose. There are other cards in the
deck, however, that give you advantages and add to the strategy of the
game. It pokes fun, makes you think, and is great for as few as two
people up to a group of 6 or 8.

Mad Gab: Bible Edition (Good)
This
game is hilarious. You read a card that sounds like something but reads
like gibberish. Your team then gives you clues to help you guess what
you're supposed to be saying. It's a very neat concept. Give it a try!

| Purchase |
Pharisees (Excellent)
If
you enjoy the game "Mafia," you'll love this even more. It's Pharisees
vs. Disciples with each player assigned a different role, including
people from the Old and New Testaments, as you try to figure out who the
Pharisee is. It's great for youth groups and young adult small groups.
 |
| Purchase |
Refraze: Christian Edition (Good)
This
is another game that will make you think as you try to guess the name
of the Biblical person or place from the strangely worded clue. There's
no real strategy to the game, but it can be an entertaining and
challenging game for a group of friends or a small group.

The Road to Bethlehem (Good)
Watch the game trailer!
Watch the game trailer!
This
is a board game mixed with a party game, which makes it a little more
strategic than some other party games we've seen. Players will act out
challenges as the game progresses, and there's also a lot of replay
value in the various scenarios to try.
Unauthorized (Excellent)
Watch the walkthrough video!

Unauthorized (Excellent)
Watch the walkthrough video!
Being a Christian is illegal. Can you survive and keep your members loyal? This is a fast, fun game for a group of 6-12 players.

Dance Praise and Dance Praise 2 (Excellent, Review)
+ + +
 |
| Purchase |
Platforms: PC, Mac
Publisher: Digital Praise, 2005, 2007
This
game uses dance pads and popular Christian music tracks. Get your
exercise and worship on at the same time! Plus, there are plenty of
expansion packs that work with both games.
Guitar Praise (Excellent)
Play along to some familiar Christian songs, both old anew! You can also get an expansion pack to add more tracks.
JamBand (Excellent)

Publisher: Cloud 9 Games, 2009
With this "Rock Band" style game, you can have two instruments and two singers playing at a time. You can also play solo or versus mode, and there's a good variety of 40 popular songs to play. The only downside is that this game never had any expansion packs.

If
you enjoy singing, you'll enjoy these games. With over 40 songs each
and the ability to play with up to 4 people, it should provide a lot of
fun for a long time. Each game comes with a microphone and includes a
variety of songs. There are also mini-games to help you hone your vocal
skills, and you can unlock outfits for your avatar to wear and different
venues to sing at.
VeggieTales Dance, Dance, Dance (Excellent)
 |
| Purchase |
Platforms: PC, Mac
Publisher: Digital Praise, 2006
Dance to all your favorite VeggieTales songs! This game comes with its own dance pad and a CD to play on any computer.
The Bible Game (Excellent)
This
is a fun one to play with your friends. You're competing against up to 3
other players or the computer on a game show and answering trivia
questions or playing mini-games for points. There's a lot of variety in
the content and the mini-games themselves. The graphics have held up
well for a PS2-era game. I'd definitely recommend it as a group game.
Bible Trivia: Avatar Edition (Good)
Play
by yourself or with up to three other players as you take turns
answering multiple choice questions before your time for your turn runs
out.

King Solomon's Trivia Challenge 1 and 2, Solomon Says: Anything Goes (Good)
 |
| Purchase |
Play
against the computer or against other players in this game show trivia
competition. Solomon is your host, and you can set the difficulty to an
appropriate level. Solomon Says is the original game, with the King
Solomon's Trivia Challenge games being the editions that Left Behind
Games published after they purchased Cloud 9.
Super Bible Trivia (Excellent)
There
are a lot of Christian trivia games, but this one stands out for its
mini-games. Like some of the other trivia games above, this one uses a
game show theme that you can play solo or versus other players. The
mini-games are fun because they include things like Timeline, Who Am I?,
and Name that Book, which I found particularly enjoyable.
