Editors Notes

Steam (PC/Mac) version confirmed for June 2026 — wishlist page live at store.steampowered.com

What if you could walk through the entire story of the Bible — not as a reader, but as a player? The Serpent & The Seed is an award-winning mobile adventure game that invites you into the grand narrative of Scripture, from Genesis to Revelation, through beautiful hand-painted artwork, gentle puzzles, and a hauntingly beautiful original soundtrack.^1

Created by Discipleship Tech — the UK charity behind the beloved PrayerMate app — this game took over four years to develop and is the passion project of founder Andy Geers, who dreamed it up more than two decades ago.^2 You play as Mungo, a robin, in a dystopian world overrun by thorns and thistles, where an ancient book holds the key to defeating the serpent. As you explore its pages, the Bible's overarching story unfolds: the Garden of Eden, the plagues of Egypt, the promise to Abraham, the coming of the Seed who makes all things new.^1

The team reads like a dream roster for faith-based gaming: game design by Dan Gould (formerly EA and Frontier Developments, now a theology graduate and missionary), a script co-written by BAFTA award-winning Amy Green of That Dragon, Cancer, and a stunning musical score by indie folk duo Poor Bishop Hooper.^1 The Gospel Coalition's Brett McCracken wrote that "arguably, no [Bible-inspired] game has matched the artistry and narrative brilliance of The Serpent and the Seed."^3 The game earned Gold at the NYX Game Awards for Best Music, Best Narrative, and Best Storytelling, plus a TIGA 2025 nomination for Audio Design.^1
