The BibleTown title screen: the BibleTown wordmark and a green Play button over a softly blurred market square, with a well and fruit stalls.

A town full of friends to help

Each chapter tells a story from Acts through small jobs a child can do.

A girl stands with Peter by the well in the market square, among the fruit, pottery and bread stalls. The goals panel says to invite Thomas, Matthew and Mary to pray and bring two fish to Andrew at the Kidron Brook.

Meet the first Christians

Peter, John, Mary, Thomas, Matthew and Andrew all live in town. Each one has a job for you, and a story of their own with Jesus.

Peter smiles as he talks with the girl: Jesus promised to send the Holy Spirit. While we wait, we pray! Two choices, How can I help? and Who is the Holy Spirit?, each have a speaker button.

Friends who talk with you

Everyone speaks their lines aloud, and their faces smile, wonder and laugh as they talk.

A New fish! card over the Kidron Brook: St. Peter's Fish, 9 inches long. Fishermen on the Sea of Galilee caught these. People call it St. Peter's fish!

Go fishing

Cast into the Kidron Brook, wait for a bite, then reel in. Every new kind of fish comes with a fun fact.

Thomas's olive grove across the bridge over the Kidron Brook, with a stone olive press. The girl stands under an olive tree, with a Shake the olive tree prompt. The walled Garden of Gethsemane is up the path behind.

Walk through first-century Jerusalem

A look at Chapter 1

Waiting for the Promise follows Acts 1:4–2:4. Jesus has gone up to heaven and promised to send the Holy Spirit, and His friends wait and pray in Jerusalem.

Peter asks you to bring everyone together. Find the walking staff Thomas lost, answer Matthew's riddle, invite Mary, the mother of Jesus, and catch two fish for Andrew's supper. Then the friends of Jesus pray together in the Upper Room, until a wind rushes through the house at Pentecost and little flames rest on each of them.

Peter waves from the market square, beside the well: Anna! Over here, by the well!
Peter waves you over by the well.
Matthew, at his writing desk under a fig tree, asks: Before I come, a riddle! How many apostles did Jesus choose? The choices are Seven, Twelve and Forty-five bazillion!
Matthew won't come until you answer his riddle.
The girl stands by the flock in the sheep pasture, with a Pick up Thomas's Staff prompt. The goals panel shows one of three friends invited.
Thomas left his walking staff with the sheep.
The girl stands with Andrew on the bank of the Kidron Brook. A panel asks: Give Andrew a fish? with a sardine and a St. Peter's fish to choose from.
Two fish for Andrew's supper.
Inside the Upper Room, Mary, the apostles and the girl gather in a circle around a low lamp table.
"Come and sit by me. Let us wait for the Holy Spirit together."
Mary, the apostles and the girl raise their hands in praise, with a small flame above each head.
"The Holy Spirit came, just as Jesus promised!"

Every chapter ends with something to try at home.
A storybook page, Chapter 1: Waiting for the Promise, Acts 1:9-11, with a picture of Jesus rising into heaven on a cloud while Mary and the apostles look up: Jesus had risen from the dead! For forty days He visited His friends. Then, on the Mount of Olives, He was taken up into heaven, right before their eyes.

Easy controls and a narrator that reads to you

Every line is voiced, so children who can't read yet can follow the whole story.

  • A narrator reads the storybook pages and says each new goal.
  • Every choice has a speaker button, to hear it before you pick.
  • Stuck? Tap the praying hands. You say a short prayer for help, and a soft light shows the way.
  • Walk with the arrow keys or the joystick, and talk with one big button.

All these with one accord devoted themselves to prayer, together with the women and Mary the mother of Jesus…
