A Christian-themed first-person-shooter, you are a Christian-in-training in the Ancient Roman times. You are battling the hordes of demons sent by the devil to corrupt Roman souls. Most of your comrades have been locked away by the possessed Romans. Only you, armed with a holy sword that shoots word of God, can enlighten the possessed Centurions, banish the demons, save your fellow Christians, and defeat Satan himself...

Yeah, that's right, it's CATECHUMEN, the non-violent Christian FPS where you shoot roman soldiers with the word of God and when you "kill" one of them, instead of dying they see the light and fall down on their knees in prayer while the choir sings "HAAAALLELUJAH" in the background. No, of course it's not any good, don't be ridiculous. It's significantly worse than SUPER 3D NOAH'S ARK and THE WAR IN HEAVEN. Get real.
This game may give me nostalgia and it may be one of the biggest budget christian video games of all time. But, Catechumen is a headache. Catechumen's AI is brain dead. The controls can be a mess. Your only weapons are swords with different looking sprites which is where another Christian FPS like The War in Heaven shines through with it's bigger and different weapon selection rather than a sword that shoots faster all day. This game is down the middle for me.
