Bible Buffet is a video game released for the Nintendo Entertainment System in 1993 by Wisdom Tree, a company which specialised in Christian-themed video games. Like many of their games, Bible Buffet was not licensed by Nintendo. Despite being called Bible Buffet, the game has no internal technical references to the Bible, Christianity, or religion in general.

In the game, up to four players move their pieces around a board similar to the physical board game Candy Land, participating in mini-arcade games at certain locations on the playfield. Its game engine was later used in the Wisdom Tree's Spiritual Warfare.

Game Play[ | ]

The object of the game is to get rid of the food that tries to kill you. The weapons available to players are oil drums (whose exploding method emulates the mechanics from the Bomberman series; forks, knives, and spoons. The game also includes a quiz section where players answer three True/False questions in order to advance. These questions would be the only Bible references in the entire game, but they are only found in the game's instruction manual.
