Maker's Matchup Download (1994 Board Game)

Maker's Matchup is another game in a series of Concentration games about the Bible. This game focuses on teaching about God and Jesus.

The game is played just like other Concentration games, where 1-3 players try to match up pairs of cards. The cards in this game are all based on Jesus and God. The winner is the player with the most matching pairs at the end of the game.

Introduction...

Maker's Matchup is a Christian education picture matching game with the theme of God the Maker. Tell me a story...

You know that guy - erm - thing that made all the other things, don't you? If not, download this game, execute it and click on INST. (instructions). Let there be light, and there was light, eh?

The same procedure as every year?...

Yes, in matters of the pairs concept, except for the optional two Grace Cards which automatically find the match to the other card or even give an instant win when found both at once. You flip two of the 5x6 cards, trying to get a matching pair, keeping your turn when you get one, memorising the locations of everyone's misses for future turns. Only mouse control (sorry, keyboarders). The player number can be one (showing the tries you needed as result) to three. The difference comes with the Christian information about God the Maker. The cards depict biblical scenes or religious symbols, and the instructions explain them; or the cards illustrate the text respectively - it's symbiotic.

Eyes and ears...

The graphics is VGA. Style = textually pleasing, graphically stumbling. Fitting church music snippets when you match a pair, either internal speaker or FM music. Long FMs at title screen and instructions.

After output now the input...flip card - Mouse clickquit - Esc

Transduction...A basic pairs game as double-edged medium - partly informative, partly religious zeal. The reward musics disrupt the game flow, especially the longer FM ones. TWO points! Recommended for memorisers, critics eager for knowledge and small groups, not recommended for susceptibles.
