Kings of Israel
Great PC adaptation of the board game. Set up works for multiple players only if sharing the same device; play can be split between two players (1 prophet per player) from what I can tell. So far I’ve only played solo. Love the Bible study/trivia option!
EDIT: On the standard play mode, I have now reached level 5 (Saul), which increases the number of prophets involved to three. I personally take about 20-30 minutes per game (unless I lose in the first ten). Based on the settings available for the Custom game option, it looks like there may be as many as four prophets in play at once. In Custom mode, you can also choose which prophets are in play, whereas the standard play-by-ranking mode assigns prophets at random. Definitely recommend playing in Custom or Bible Study mode if you don’t want to affect your level ranking status! Bible Study mode provides both good and bad consequences to your multiple-choice response, making it worth cracking open your Bible (or clicking the online Bible links provided) for the right answer. Highly recommended to you if you like turn-based games, strategy, and fun ways to engage with the Holy Bible!

From a secular perspective, it really depends on what you are looking for in a game. This game is rich in its representation of historical content, if you accept that it is based entirely on the Bible. It makes extensive use of RNG, which I understand is not popular among many gamers, but is a very appropriate way to represent human behavior. Not that it is random per-se, but in life humans will often either surprise you, or at the very least the number of things they might do is so varied that trying to make a specific prediction in a moral-political context is not likely going to be accurate. It really feels appropriate to have so much RNG in this context, but there is a little you can do to maximize your output. In short, this game uses mechanics that are generally not very popular, but in a highly appropriate manner for the subject matter.

I’m Christian now.
Don’t play this game. It’s not good. It’s bad.
I actually beat it, take my word for it. I have lost 3 hours of my life. I will not get them back. Not now, not ever.
Amen.

Game Of Puzzles: Slavic Mythology
A very easy, relaxing game with beautiful artwork. The main draw for me was its educational jumping off point to look into the folklore creatures more thoroughly elsewhere. The game play is a simple jigsaw puzzle block mover, and I got through it all in less than an hour on my first play through. I’ve gone back to it a few times when I’ve been stressed and just wanted a pretty game where I had no possible way of failing.
I think the game would be good for kids.

Mandinga - A Tale of Banzo
For those who love turn based RPG and are searching for a true story, this is the kind of game that you need.

This game is great. A classic jRPG (like FF for SNES) with a very unique story.
I was able to play this game for 5 hours in a roll and I’ve even reached mid-game (i guess).
I like the dice rolling battle and the dice combos also.
10/10
EDIT: I’ve able to finish the story with 9 hours of gameplay, I really enjoy this one.

The Holy City
This is an amazing tool for anyone curious to learn more about Jerusalem and the many religions that coexist in this fantastic place. Very well executed. I have to say it’s very unusual for me to review projects. This because very few actually wow me to the point of actually wanting to share it with others…. This is an amazing experience that allows you to feel like you can touch the Holy Sepulcher and place a note on the Western Wall. Just fantastic. I know this is a virtual visit- but the fact the places were scanned from real life really makes me appreciate the accuracy and be able to enjoy looking at each location at my own pace. Throughout this journey I really enjoyed seeing the beautiful realistic-looking recreation of many Jerusalem temples that allowed me to freely look around and spend a lot of time inspecting painting and inscriptions on the walls. When it switched from the interactive gamefied version to the 360 video version was totally amazing to recognize the precise location where the camera was placed and enjoy seeing it filled with real people. I hope to see more soon.

The Virtual Library is a place where everything you learn and discover is preserved in the form of interactive manuscripts.
In Phase 1 Chronicles will be introduced which take you on a journey back in time to become an eye witness of significant historical events, such as the miraclious emergence of the Zam Zam well, or the construction of the Kaaba by Prophet Abraham and his son, peace be upon them.
Additional content (locations, objects and chronicles) will be added on a regular basis.
Expected Release Date: September 2021
Phase 2: Story Mode

Expected Release Date: Q1 2022
Phase 3: Online Mode
Everything can be more beautiful when experiencing it with others, so in Phase 3 we are planning to add online features which will allow you to meet others in the virtual world of Muslim 3D. Go on a Virtual Hajj together, pray with others in the Holy Mosque or meet at an exclusive online event, such as a live lecture given by prominent scholars and spiritual leaders.
Who is behind Muslim 3D?
Bigitec Studio is a young, aspiring startup, a team of open-minded & passionate game designers and industry professionals. Founder and Creative Director is Bilal Chbib, a Muslim who was born and raised in Germany. To ensure that our content is based on well-researched and authentic knowledge, we have a team of scholars and historians who are involved in the production of Muslim 3D. Visit our website to learn more!
Why did you create Muslim 3D?
There are hardly any products with decent quality that would portray our faith accurately. If you found Muslims in games at all, there’s a good chance they were holding an AK-47 rifle and needed to be gunned down. This only strengthened my wish to work on something that enable people to relate to our rich Islamic history, and to use this wonderful, strong medium - video games - to unearth the vast knowledge unfortunately not taught at schools or in mass media, such as how Muslim scientists have contributed to our world, or why we have certain rituals and where they come from. Muslim 3D can also be an accessible tool for Non-Muslims to learn about Islam and may even help tear down walls of fear built over the past decades." (Bilal Chbib, Founder & Creative Director)
I’d like to support you - how?
We have been working tirelessly for quite some time now and as you probably know - game development is a challenging and expensive undertaking. To support the continuous development we came up with some ideas and launched a pre-order campaign. Read more on our website.
Ah yes - of course a great way to support Muslim 3D is to add it your Steam Wishlist and to spread the word by sharing the Muslim 3D Website with your friends!
Join us on this breathtaking adventure and bear with us! Our goal is to design Muslim 3D to become a tranquil, enjoyable and inspiring place to be - like a virtual vacation for your soul. Feel free to get in touch for feedback and suggestions!
Hagia Sophia VR Experience
This is basically one single level room. It’s a very nicely done single level room with some neat audio attached to the objects in it but within minutes I’d come to the conclusion that I wasn’t keeping this ‘game’. There just isn’t enough to it to keep me interested for even the two hours after which Steam won’t refund my purchase. I intend to go through it a bit more and then delete it. I’d rather have the $5 back than keep it.

Unfortunately, this is a half-assed “experience” that is limited only to a part of the ground floor of Hagia Sophia. You do not get access to the top floors or to certain parts of the ground floor. Additionally, it is chock full of translated verses of the Quran instead of providing historical information on this magnificent masterpiece of a building. Perhaps the developers are attempting to promote the Islamic religion, as I really cannot find a convincing explanation as to why verses of the Quran have been placed throughout the building instead of something more relevant to the experience. Additionally, it can only be experienced as an overlay of steamVR, otherwise it won’t work. There is no option to adjust the video settings in spite of this experience being clearly non-optimised for PC as evidenced by the horrible amount of tearing I experienced in spite of running it on RTX 2080 ti. and a 9900k processor I do not recommend bothering with this experience.
