Sites like IGN.com have given the game an average rating on the console versions [http://ps2.ign.com/objects/746/746738.html IGN] [http://www.gamespot.com/ps2/puzzle/thebiblegame/index.html?tag=tabs;summary GameSpot] , the only major problem being that the mini-games (based on events in the Bible itself) have no connection to the Bible stories. The games were considered great for children to play, but would turn-off the older, more religious gamers.

The Game Boy Advanced version was rated poor [http://gameboy.ign.com/objects/746/746737.html IGN] [http://www.gamespot.com/gba/puzzle/thebiblegame/index.html?tag=result;title;3 GameSpot] due to the game aimed at children, yet having hard questions that most children would not know about. Also the levels had scrolls with answers, but they can only be used once and can't be referenced later. The game lacked a battery save and had load times which are normally uncommon with Game Boy games.
