The non-pc AI is such that characters will randomly brawl each other and punch you with no provocation when they aren’t wandering or running around aimlessly. If you’re taken aback that a purportedly serious game about the teachings and death of Jesus Christ allows you to punch him, you won’t be a few minutes into playing this game. This means that if you punch Jesus he’s very likely to say to you “Hey, what’s your problem?! You touch me again, I’ll kill you!” Mat “MDickie” Dickie’s game has direct references to specific verses from the bible and a surprisingly thorough portrayal of events from Jesus’s life, such as the moment where Jesus says that he has no mother while speaking of the Virgin Mary.īut the thing about MDickie is that his games prior to The You Testament tended to be wrestling-themed, including such titles as “Wrestling Revolution” and “Hard Time.” And apparently he recycled the character programming and dialogue from those games for The You Testament. You are shown the true nature of being by the Son of God and then can die with him on the cross. You see him perform miracles and perform them yourself. You become a disciple of Jesus Christ who follows him during his most significant days on Earth. It’s sure to send your children the message that the story of Noah’s Ark contained so much insanity that the boat containing two of every animal in the world for forty days will be the least crazy thing they’ll have to think about when they contemplate that story.Ĭlick here to play it yourself! 2. Animals fly through the air at random, jumping is a complete mess where your character often flies off-screen, the narrator has a weird bored tone reminiscent of the one from Altered Beast, and course layouts that make no sense even in context. The animals run in a jittery, wonkily animated way that looks like something out of a silent movie, even the ones not racing.
Where the comedy comes is in the game components. It’s merely a game where animals run through highly elaborate tracks to get to Noah’s Ark before the flood. The Zoo Race is not the most ambitious of games, so its religious message could hardly be too goofily garbled.
