I'm very excited for this game! Not a lot of good Christian games out there, and I mean "good" in either or both quality of gameplay and representation of Christian faith, beliefs, contexts, etc. (which often yield more sensationalized, dramatic, or perverted representations). Quite often are the honorable retention of biblical context at the cost of mechanically fun gameplay. The challenge here as with any Christian or Bible game is the notion of scoring, winning, and the mechanics of the game that lead to them. In Bob Pazehoski, Jr.'s review of the game on BGG, he most excellently stated: "Christianity is not a competition. Keeping score and biblical grace are somewhat mutually exclusive concepts, and there is only one champion in the true narrative. But that is the challenge of making the game at all. It is impossible to make a game of the deep truths at play when, by the book, the biblical score is settled by Jesus himself and shared as a gift." It's his review that drove me to pre-ordering this game through my FLGS. Thank you for taking the time to teach how to play this game, and congratulations Carmen García Jiménez on an excellent game design and Enrique Corominas and La Draws on the artistry for an important part of our history!
I like it! Where can I get a copy? The artwork looks great. I like how the mechanics fit the theme and Bible board games are my favorite theme. Looking forward to trying it out!
The artwork looks indeed great, but the temple and the lake (sea of Gallilee) is very inaccurate, not to mention how Jesus is portrait, and that really bothers me.
There were two James among the Twelve, one was the son of Zebedee (brother of John). The other James was the son of Alphaeus. The son of Zebedee was older than the son of Lepheus. The original Bartholomew and Nathanael are the same person, the stickers are duplicated. So one of them, James was missing.
Interesting theme to implement. Mechanically looks simple, but it could be an advantage. I like card driven game so I'll try very likely. The game rules presentation itself very good, thanks!👍
1) when we place the Orange Apostoles in Last Supper we get points for our followers in the line but do not score points when we put purple in the Last Supper. At the end of the game when we count the points at Last Supper all players get again points by the orange Apostoles in line of the our followers..?! 2) we only discard the cards we play on 3 lines of our board after we visit an Apostole and at the end of our turn ..? 3) the yellow marker we move it when every player turn after all Apostoles on the Table of Last Supper and before we move it when we find the symbol in the cards ..?!
Hello, thank you for the video of this game that really tempts me. Can you confirm that there is no text on any component of the game? Are the rules only in English or Spanish? (I am French)
Love the teach. Everytime he says apostles, my brain hears applesauce. Like man jesus really wanted to be surrounded by his applesauce that night.
28 page rulebook! 😜 Seriously though, looks like you might have another hit on your hands. Loving the artwork and design ❤

at "Call a follower" could we take a follower from our camp and place it to the Last Supper or we place him into a location (mountain desert)?!

The game includes rulebooks in Spanish, English, Italian, Catalán and Portuguese.
Thought I was going to watch Brooklyn 99 for a second. 😂
Simple as that hahahahaha.........by the way two Symbols are missing for special rules for the white and orange Apostel, they are not on the cards
Is this game language neutral?
Yes
looks like a great game but these how to play videos are not concise and has too much rambling to be useful to learn how to play the game
