Abundant Harvest for Kids and Adults (Good)
All Aboard the Ark (Excellent)
Play this game with your kids to start them thinking about real-life decisions they're likely to come up against every day. There isn't much direct Christian content in the game, but you can tell it's in the theme of the game, and you can certainly make your conversations about what God wants us to do in each situation and why.

All Aboard the Ark (Excellent)
I like this memory matching game because it's cooperative between two players as you help each other remember where the animals are and because there's a sense of urgency to it. If you flip over 10 Flood cards before you find all the animal matches, you lose.
Answer That! Adventures in Odyssey (Good)

The Apostles: Spread the Gospel Board Game (Fair)
This is a Chutes and Ladders type of game that uses events from the New Testament as the different spaces on the board. While I appreciate the idea, the simple text referencing the event isn't very appealing to children.

This is another classic card game-turned Bible game. Players take turns laying down cards in front of them and calling out when they see a match in front of two players or between a player and the "pot." It's a fun game that goes quickly and has the added benefit of reinforcing Bible stories.
