Exodus: Journey to the Promised Land

Le jeu

It was ported to the Game Boy, Sega Genesis and MS-DOS. Exodus is based on Crystal Mines, an earlier game from the company when it was known as Color Dreams. According to the instruction manual, the player controls the biblical figure Moses as he leads the Israelites to the Promised Land, meaning he goes through a labyrinth. Moses has the ability to shoot glowing 'W's, which signify the word of God, to defeat enemies and remove obstacles. To finish each level, Moses must acquire five question marks as well as a certain amount of manna while avoiding enemies such as magicians and soldiers. After a level is completed, the player must answer five multiple choice Bible-related questions before advancing to the next level. After answering enough questions correctly, the player is rewarded with an extra life. The final 50 levels are a mirror of the first 50 with tougher enemies. At the intro screen, players can skip ahead in intervals of five levels until level 81. The background music of the Exodus levels is to the theme of 'Father Abraham' (a popular Christian children's song named after an iconic figure of the Old Testament).
